Sounds like an up charge for a 15 year old show... But I might have missed something

It's not really an up charge if you're already on the dining plan and it takes a QS credit. Mind you, it's easy enough to get a seat anyway.

You're paying for the dining plan and the show is included in your bargain $97.00 ticket.

Disney CEO Bob Iger is at the Green Bay Packer game tonight in Green Bay against Atlanta. Interesting seeing him in such a small town especially one so close to me.

He's firing gruden at the half to save some money...

And they are doing a frozen overlay at Curly's Pub

I'm pretty sure there would be outrage if they did such a thing to Curly's. The pitch forks might actually make an appearance, I mean we do have a lot of farms in Wisconsin. Lambeau is no place for animated movies.

I am actually surprised by this news I know she had health issues and I am sure thats one of the reasons she is leaving. I am now really interested to see who takes her place in the spot she is in.

I think it's more from the perspective of "needed regime change"

I'm at the point where I think any change is good
For parks...even taking into account the "the devil you know" philosophy.

They honestly can't get much worse and slap "Disney" on it...the masses will start to cry wolf.

Maybe they get somebody who gets it in some
Of these slots.

The bigger problem is Rasulo and Staggs...particularly Staggs...
Trouble there.

My question for you is who takes her spot? Does Georgie K move into her position and a new WDW president comes in or does the Disneyland guy get it since his contract is up next year?
