March 3rd?

OK I know that Disney has been moving it's Board meetings. A while ago they had one in CT at the ESPN headquarters, but Philadelphia on March 3rd???? The only Disney thing here are the Disney stores which are lamentable and on the auction block and a hole at 8th & Market where Disney Quest was supposed to be.

Perhaps Philadelphia was chosen not for what exists there now, but to make an announcement of what could exist there in the future.

Or to make it "more accessable to shareholders"...

Or to hide from those same shareholders

Kinda hard to hide from shareholders when you publicly announce where the meeting's going to be and you put it in an easily accessible place on the east coast.

You want to hide -- or make it hard for people to get there -- you hold it in Burbank, where you need security clearance to get in. Or you go to someplace that's expensive to get to, like Maui, or harder to get to, like Marceline.
