Michiganders have you heard?

The first thing anyone should consider when hearing this type of rumor is the location. Michigan has an actual winter and who would travel there from, say December through March/April? Therefore the park would be closed for about 1/3 of the year. There were stories about Disney putting a park in Virginia west of DC back in the 90's. Again January-February can be unpleasant here (not always).

I heard the same thing in Texas, north of Dallas. We only get maybe 2 or 3 ice days a year, if that, and it is in the central part of the US, however everyone I spoke to said that has been a rumor for years.

I'm skeptical that Texas north of DFW only gets 2-3 ice days per year. Heck, Orlando gets that many near-freezes every year so Dallas has to get many more than that.

Disney is not going to build any more Disney parks in the United States; they would just be scavenging their own customers. Gaylord, North Texas, South Texas, Branson, Louisiana, etc......FORGET ABOUT IT! It's not going to happen.

Why Gaylord? That's a bit out of the way of everything. I could see if it was closer to GR or, perhaps, Lansing.
I don't think the deer hunters would be that interested in Disney.

Why the swamp land of Lake Buena Vista in the early 70s?
