Per this website and article about Disney Corp bidding for SeaWorld.
I hope they win. What great attraction to add to WDW - and with Disney values I am sure SeaWorld will be great.
If their bid wins, I just hope they run a bus from WDW to SeaWorld and back. Even if it just departs and arives back at the TTC.
So cool it would be :cool1:

According to reports, Disney is among those showing interest in purchasing Sea World following InBev's takeover of Anheuser-Busch.
InBev has announced their plans to sell off Busch's theme parks division following their takeover which could take place as early as November.
The report mentioned Disney among those bidding for Sea World as well as Blackstone owned Merlin Entertainments which operates the London Eye, Alton Towers and Madame Tussauds. Bids are also expected from Spain's Parques Reunidos, owned by private equity firm Candover, and Gulf state conglomerate Dubai World.
According to InBev's bankers "We've been approached by several companies but this deal will be based on who can bring the money to the table to fund the debt needed."
