Can you eat at Epcot without Entrance Ticket ?

Many, many, msny, many many years ago (longer ago than some people here were born), it was rumored that you could provide a credit card deposit for the full cost of a one-day ticket, and enter Epcot to dine for two hours. If you weren't checked out in full at the end of that period, no refund.
