ShopDisney too. Shipping is $30 USD to Canada though, so it doesn't make sense for me to buy it. I really want the Spirit jersey. With my DVC discount it would only be like $35

I know none of those bubbles would be Toronto, even though they say the MLSE and NBA are trying to work something out. We just started our 2nd wave here and they are predicting it lasting into the New Year. The government still hasn't approved rapid testing, so unless that happens, travel for games is out of the question.

My hope is that the Raptors bubble will be in FL (like their practice facility) and rapid testing will be employed there. I'm not kidding, I'd move in with my sister and somehow find a way to get myself season tickets.

The entire staff at the NBA Experience at DS have been let go, more fallout from the massive job cuts at Disney...

Dear basketball gods, please do not allow the Lakers to sweep the Heat. That is all I ask. Thank you.

Your wish is granted my child. But don't quote me on that.

Does that mean the NBA experience is done?

For the foreseeable future yes.

For the foreseeable future yes.

I plan on March 2021 with rescheduled Park Hoppers plus option. First- one waterpark open and now NBA done? They just opened

I don’t think they expected covid and to be shut down for months....

Covid didnt help but it was a bad idea to begin with. I'm not surprised.

The likelihood that the entire staff would be laid off had Disney closed the location is low. When DisneyQuest closed I don’t believe that entire staff was laid off. They tend to relocate in those circumstances.

So you think it will reopen?

Not anytime soon. Really have no idea at this point.

No. Its numbers were bad pre covid.

I don’t think anyone here can say that at this point. It barely had a chance pre-covid to begin with. It didn’t do much better or worse than DisneyQuest in its later years.
