It is not longer in 'HONOR' of DLs 50th. They have deliberatly changed the campaign. They must think that since DL already had its REAL 50th that they can just screw it and pimp WDW for the remaining 13 months.

After all, they point out, why else would there be all this celebrating taking place in Florida? ORGOCH: Ain't no use tryin' ta edja-cate 'em. Some folks just likes bein' dumb 'n ign'rant, I s'pose...

Originally Posted By RoadTrip Oh well. I'm not going to stay awake at night worrying about it. That is the basic problem of Disneyland fans. They have this massive inferiority complex when it comes to WDW. That has been made even worse now that WDW's second park is clearly superior to DL's second park. Perhaps that's why DL fans are so bitter about DCA... not so much that the park actually is that bad, but they wanted bragging rights over WDW and they didn't get it.

Honestly, I don't really care. If the WDC wants to promote WDW instead of DL, it's okay by me... DL is busy enough!

Originally Posted By trekkeruss ^^Don't really know, or care about that either... I haven't been to WDW in six years. Besides, WDW has plenty of space for the crowds to disperse over. DL on the other hand, is tiny. Don't bother to bring up DCA... no one wants to go there.
Originally Posted By TDLFAN I would take DCA over the MK anytime. No crowds and a cleaner park. Besides...have you seen the size of some of the guests and strollers at WDW??? There is hardly room in that place anymore.
Originally Posted By trekkeruss It's not just at WDW... Americans in general are bigger than ever. As for DCA, I'd take it over the MK too, because DL is right across the esplanade, and I can enjoy both parks!

In the pre-bpoarding group was a woman with a frickin' SVU for a stroller. I'd guess the thing weighed at least 100 lbs - it was HUMONGOUS! :/ grrrrr
