As I ride back to my resort on on a WDW bus, it occurred to me that this is the perfect time to share my frustrations. WDW has to stop trying to make everyone happy and lower the maximum capacity for MK at least.
I know that their business M.O. is making people happy and that Walt's charge to his cast members was to make someone have a magical moment, but enough is enough. I witnessed and personally lived through a stampede. I saw some that weren't so lucky: one gentleman carrying a child was knocked down flat. The child was alright, but the man was not so fortunate. Did they make his day by allowing so many people into the park? They didn't make my experience magical by making it take 3 hours to get back to my hotel. Actually I'm not there yet, so 3 hours and counting.
They simply allow too many people into that park. First, it becomes too crowded to enjoy anything, and second, and more importantly, it is too crowded to evacuate safely should an emergency occur. There are too many choke points exiting to have a crowd that large, not to mention that the exit and the area between the exit all the way to the bus area is too dark and people were tripping and running into others and skinning ankles with strollers. It was hectic.
Anybody else out there that was there too that experienced this insanity? What were your impressions of MK 10/14/15?
