Just last week, I went to Disneyland in Anaheim, California with my oldest grandson, his wife and my daughter. while in fantasyland, we noticed a girl, about 20, heavyset, wearing really short shorts and a bathing suit top. She also had a sweatshirt tied around her waist. We figured she came in with the sweatshirt on and they didn’t say anything to her about the short shorts which were writing up her butt, and when she got into the park, she took off the sweatshirt and tied it around her waist. She really was indecent, and it was embarrassing to all the other people that had to walk around her. We even questioned how could it be that this girl was allowed in the park dressed like that . Someone didn’t do their job. She and her friends were also cursing loudly, and no one said anything to them. Her friends were dressed, just like she was.
Disney does not care about enforcing their rules…..vloggers film on rides and scream loud for content, while making other park guests visit non enjoyable. One of Disney’s rule is no commercial endeavors within the parks, yet all vloggers violate this rule. Vloggers published content is for commerical benefit to them, payment is received for published content.
Also Disney’s marketing team is under the impression that vlogger drive attendance, but just the opposite. Potential guests view the Disney vlogs posted and their desire to visit the parks are satisfied.
The only vlogger (really a YouTube content creator) I’ve ever felt drives guest visits is Fresh Baked Disney (Dave). His content is done offsite, except for occasional park walk through videos (always done with respect to other guests) and is interesting and relevant. Vloggers who set up in the park to shoot content should be banned. The trend has gotten out of hand, and if anyone at Disney management ever searched social media, they’d find that these people cause more trouble than generate positive reactions.
One thing that needs to happen for many reasons is for Disney to HIRE MORE CAST MEMBERS. We who love the parks, whether we visit several times a year or once every few years, want the CMs to have more authority when it comes to blatant flaunting of rules that really affect guest experience. But when their time is stretched thin, it’s unfair to expect them to police all behavior. Hire. More. Cast. Members. And hire more security CMs.
Disney needs to get tougher about the rules. I see many complaints about this. If people are doing inappropriate things they should be removed from the park with no refunds of any type. Finger print entry would provide a way to keep them out of the park for ever. Disney was created for FAMILY’S to have a great time. This sadly has not become what guests get.
See my earlier comment about hiring more CMs. I agree that people who blatantly break rules (especially for social media content) should be trespassed. Whether it’s for life should depend on how bad the behavior was and how they behave towards Disney security. And there’s no need for fingerprint checks to make it stick. All tickets have photographs attached, and they have a way to electronically flag both tickets and names for bans.
Disney parks are for everyone, not just families with kids. This means that there will be differences of opinions as to what is appropriate; people with tattoos and piercings will be part of the guest crowd. But there should be no argument about behavior. Whether you’re 6 or 66 (like me), you should respect the other guests. Period.
As a retired cast member I can say that if you’ve been trespassed you won’t be getting back in. They not only have your fingerprints on file,but the camera systems there are amazingly detailed with some facial recognition features. Well,as of 5 years ago. Some folks have tried their luck and sadly a few left in handcuffs for pressing the issue.
The man who fell in the water by Tom Sawyer’s Island. Had a disability and lost his balance. He couldn’t help himself. He shouldn’t be included with people who are just being vandals.
They need to start doing something about the line jumpers. It’s getting out of hand. Those people should be banned for life. That would definitely cause a lot of people to think twice.

All her friends were dressed the same way, but the “girl, about 20, heavyset” was who you felt was “indecent” enough to merit specific complaint?
K`shandra
Thank you for calling OP out on this.
Thl
Calling out what? You don’t mind trash like yourself hollering and screaming?

If your reason for doing anything is strictly “for social media content,” please strongly rethink that.

If Disney WORLD was a theater I don’t think I would bother seeing another movie. Too crowded, overpriced and HOT!!!!!!
