According to the guest source, his neck and shoulders were unexpectedly stained blue after the collar of his EPCOT-branded T-shirt allegedly melted during a day at the parks.
The incident reportedly took place on a day at EPCOT, where temperatures and humidity are known to rise. The guest, who had purchased a T-shirt featuring the park’s iconic logo, wore it during his visit to explore the attractions, pavilions, and experiences that EPCOT is known for. However, as the day progressed, he noticed an unusual blue discoloration appearing around his neck and shoulders.

A Day at the Parks Takes a Turn
It is unclear exactly how the T-shirt’s collar began to melt, but the photo suggests that a combination of the Florida heat and sweat may have contributed to the breakdown of the fabric’s dye or material. As the T-shirt collar melted or degraded, the blue dye from the shirt began to transfer onto the guest’s skin, creating a smudged, blue-stained appearance that was hard to miss.

While theme parks like Walt Disney World Resort are known for their attention to detail and guest care, incidents like these serve as a reminder that not everything they do is perfect. In fact, many guests commented that they, too, have experienced these kinds of issues with Disney merchandise. One guest shared:
dude! some of their merch is so bad. my 50th shirt melted on my shirts and now i have a permanent blue stain on it. sorry that happened to you.”
Guest Raises Quality Concerns
After posting this photo to Twitter, it became evident that Disney’s merchandise is not always top quality. It is unfortunate that some guests face this problem because of the high price.
This whole situation must have been a surprise for the guest, who ended up turning a shade of blue. What do you think about this issue?
