I'm sure Disney was prepared for some complaints. No way does this get changed. People will complain for a week or two and quit. Might as well not waste your time. They did surveys on this and they know the vast majority of people are in favor.

You are correct. They DID do surveys and they knew before agreeing to do this there would be backlash. If they have issues with it they can always get rid of the alcohol later, so I don't know why people are acting crazy

Yay!!!! Finally you can have a nice dinner with a glass of wine. I suspect Walt would approve for 2012. He would think that at the price of the drinks no one will be misbehaving because of that. (I'm just guessing). There are nice restaurants with characters, for kids of all ages and now a restaurant for adults (and their kids).

Just one person's opinion but we are very happy they will be serving wine and beer! I can't imagine French food without it. I do not drink more than 1 or 2 times per month and have one or two glasses of wine at most. When I am WDW part of the experience for us is a nice adult beverage once or twice a day. Not enough to be impaired in any way. I don't see what the big deal is, at one time your could smoke all over the park, I for one thought getting rid of that was a good thing. Not all change is bad.

It's not the idea that people will walk around MK drunk or that people drink.
I'm sure plenty of people have drinks with dinner at the resorts and go to MK.
Gee a glass of wine wouldn't go good with a meal at Tony's ?

It's the idea of a long term policy changing just so they can make a few more bucks. i have seen plenty of change at MK over the past 26 years of going to the parks and belonging to DVC. Some for the better and some for the worse.
i am still going to go to WDW 3 times a year.

But would it be real terrible to keep one parks policies as it was originally intended ?

But in my world, good food and good wine go hand in hand.

I completely agree.. a fine wine is certainly a compliment to good food.

Are you also outraged and appalled that someone who was an icon to children everywhere would smoke like a smokestack and, when smoking has been banned almost everywhere Disney still has smoking areas?


If you have kids, I bet you have NO idea what they're exposed to in the real and video game world.

I don't understand what the big deal is. So you can have a drink during dinner. One drink doesn't make an obnoxious drunk. It's not like they are going to allow you to bring the glass of wine outside the restaurant while you are waiting for Peter Pan or something.

It is a totally different experience than Epcot that has people carrying around drinks with them. I also don't know where people see all these obnoxious drunks in Epcot. In the 50+ times I have been to Disney I have never observed anyone being an obnoxious drunk. Maybe I am too busy having fun. I don't know.
