Not my favorite DisneyDay.

Imagine serving Bigfoot Barleywine during the Halloween season?

I really enjoy a few delicious martinis in the Uva Bar, followed by fireworks and Fantasmic! It's how I enjoy an evening in DL, and I'm hurting nobody while enjoying myself hugely. Sipping wine while watching DL's Electrical Parade in DCA is a truly magical experience. You make the assumption that anyone who drinks is going to be a falling down puking drunk, and that's simply not anywhere close to true.

Originally Posted By trekkeruss Were there even rules about smoking in the park, other than on attractions? I assume smoking was allowed everywhere else, including in the restaurants back then, yes or no?
Originally Posted By Dabob2 I saw an old Family Feud on GSN a while back, and the question was: "Name a place you wish people wouldn't smoke." One of the top answers was "in the elevator."

Watch Mad Men to see how ubiquitous smoking was then - a much greater percentage of people did it, and you could do it pretty much anywhere. I definitely remember people smoking in line, for instance.
Originally Posted By Schmitty Good Vibes I completely agree with the OP. Further I think all attractions should be shut down between noon and 2:00 for group prayer.

DL was the ONLY place in the world (SoCal, I mean) that sold smokes for more than two bucks. Also, I seem to recall that Walt had a bar in his office suite, too.
