What's the deal? And why dont they sponsor an Epcot pavilion instead? Though I suppose refurb walls are so common in Epcot they may actually constitute an attraction..

I could do it if you want I also noticed in the photos it is the same quotes, you think if they print new signs they could come up with new quotes for the new signs.

Disney gets the sponsorship money, and how many millions of people will look at those walls, and in the future relate Stanley Tools to their vacation, and an association with Disney. Brillant.
