When he's gathered enough cobwebs and dust waiting for Space Mountain he could be moved to the Haunted Mansion and used as a prop ;)

I will say as for the refillable popcorn. last trip we made we were in Epcot and I got talked into by the CM to buy the refillable bucket of popcorn. I used our DDP snack to pay for it. So the next day we went to MK and was in Frontierland and wanted popcorn. I walked up to the cart, asked the guy if they had the refillable ones, he said yes, I pulled out the DDP card and he said I couldn't use the DDP to pay for it bucket, only the small cardboard box. I explained to him that I was just at Epcot last night and that we used the DDP to pay for a bucket of popcorn.


So what is this? Disney has different DDP rules for each park?

Sounds like the first CM was giving you some unscheduled pixie dust!

I agree. I kind of doubt the DDP snack credit would cover an unlimited snack!

I explain "Sorry sir our cups are not refillable its a one time buy and one time use." He then proceeds to tell me for 35 mins that he was just at this park yesterday and he had a refillable cup and a refillable popcorn bucket. I explain again that we do not have refillable anything in our park.

He then calls me a idot and tells me that after he rode THE HULK he bought a refillable cup and refillable popcorn.......

Excatly. If you missed that he said after THE HULK... I then had to spend the next 20mins explaining to him that his wonderful refillable cup was at UNIVERSAL NOT DISNEY!!!

He finally decided he was right and I was wrong and proceeded to go to space mountian which fyi has been closed for a month. Just wow at some people :mad:
You should have pointed out that the refillable cups are only good at Club Cool and then only for Beverly. :D:

When I ready about Beverly coke, I was laughing. Disneyland should sell Beverly coke in the parks.

When I went to Epcot with my nieces and by family. I told the girls that Beverly tasted like fruit punch.

Yup, they were pretty grossed out.

I've said it before, but I don't mind the taste of Beverly. I won't be ordering any cases of it, but I can see why some people might like it. IMHO the guarana drink from Brazil was much worse.

That stuff was great! I'd bring two six packs back every time I went to São Paulo on business and ration it to last.
