Disney World guests gripe of broken-down rides, filth as prices soar
Disney World guests gripe that the Orlando, Fla., resort has become plagued with broken-down rides and dirty facilities — even as the theme park continues to hike prices under CEO Bob Chapek.

Visitors are increasingly taking to social media to bash the Happiest Place on Earth, complaining that Chapek — who replaced the Mouse House’s longtime boss Bob Iger in 2020 — is only concerned with cutting costs and raising prices instead of reinvesting in the resort.

“Some rides are just a straight mess,” wrote one Reddit user in a chat room dubbed “Disney lacking.”

Last month, riders got stranded for over an hour on the Magic Kingdom’s “It’s a Small World” ride, with one customer calling the experience “torture” on social media. In July, video footage from Disney World revealed guests climbing out of a car on Splash Mountain because it started sinking. It was the park’s third sinking incident in two years.

#1 Spent too much on DEI? Or is it a symptom of DEI destroying work discipline ("You're making me work 'hard' because I'm [insert group]." As a supervisor I heard that cr*p). Both?

#4 Like the leftist gummint model they serve, essential infrastructure will always be allowed to crumble while spending on DIE initiatives soars.

#5 Back to 14 years copyright with an additional extension of 14 years for individual artists. F'ing international conventions.

#6 The transition to a GROQMER+ lifestyle ideal carries on, as now visitors are encouraged to shit in the walkways.

Leave your kids with us while you take the 6 hour Fentanyl Canal tour.

#7 Another reputation that took decades to build is being destroyed before our very eyes.

When I was a boy (some time ago), I would never have believed that Disney wasn't truly the magic kingdom. But now...

#8 Funny, because the Disney parks were created as a clean, wholesome, safe alternative to the seedy travelling carnivals.
