Winter Chill Out 2018

So what you're saying is that their discriminatory practices enticed you not only to support their business, but to brag about that being the reason? Wow, classy!

No, not at all. What I am saying is that I've never eaten there and have never had the opportunity to eat there. Up until a few years ago, I had basically never even heard of the place. But the name has come up so often in these forums that it is now a chicken place that I am aware of and it is now returning/replacing a chicken place that I really enjoyed dining at.

So through the negative PR it received here, I guess I am saying that bad PR is still PR. As I said, politics aside, I still like chicken.

Where did the Maverick ride sign go? Repaint?

In short, you have no idea what you're talking about.

So you base all of your spending habits on politics? You are so noble for boycotting Chick Fil A. Enjoy your self-righteous stroll through the park while wearing your sweat-shop created Cedar Point T-Shirt, and your Maverick SnowGlobe made by a 6 year old who works 17 hour days.

Afterall--- Civil Rights only belong to Americans and not the rest of the world.

Tu quoque (with a pinch of straw man and a dusting of ad hominem).

The park would prefer you to rent one of their $300/night changing rooms.

I was trying to figure out how to word that exact thought...

Most clothes are made in other countries where the workers are treated horribly. Guess we're going to have to wear nothing.

You guys will just have to agree to disagree.

Regarding Maverick's signs. Nothing was said or asked during the tour but I'm betting they're getting refurbished.

I just finished up my photo trip report from the day, it was such an amazing experience! Check it out here to learn all about my tour and to see some cool behind-the-scenes pictures.

In terms of restrooms at CPS, there should 100% be larger restrooms over by Schooners in my opinion. Nothing worse than breaking the seal and having to wait in a long line over by the restrooms next to the wave pool. I wish I would’ve spent more time at the water park last year to be honest.

Again, why wait in line for the restrooms over by the wave pool when you can use the restrooms by the splash zone (now SplasH20) with no wait. Its the same distance walk if not even closer.

Do they have showers?

^In the men's room near SplasH2O, you enter into a row of changing rooms (most, if not all, have showers and metal locking doors, although IIRC one or two might have curtains) while the other section has the toilets, urinals, and sinks. It's smaller than the large changing room that was sealed off, but it's the largest proper changing area left if you don't want to risk your clothes ending up in a toilet.

Disney World made President Trump look like Emperor Palpatine in the Hall of Presidents, but I’m not boycotting Disney. I enjoy Disney, so I will continue to watch their movies and go to their parks. I like Chick Fil A’s chicken. I’m going to eat their chicken.

(For the record)

Disney audits all overseas companies they use for their merchandise to ensure they meet the highest of standards for safety and workplace equality... they also don't sell Chick Fil A. :)

Does Disney sell a lot of fast food franchises in their parks? I'm genuinely curious, I haven't been to a Disney property since I was a toddler.

The only fast food chain within the Disney parks is Starbucks.

Morals, values, and beliefs aside, I simply eat Chick Fil A because it tastes good in my opinion, and is convenient.

I’ll let you read for yourself about the house of mouse.

I resent that swipe against Emperor Palpatine!

Make the Galaxy Great Again.....

Seeing as my university has a Chick-Fil-A which is on dining plan and I pretty much eat it every day, the news of it returning isn’t that exciting to me. Haha.
