There are numerous things being done to inform guests of the policy change. There are signs on all FP machines saying that you have to return during the printed window, the CMs at the distribution areas are informing guests and it is printed on the pass itself that you need to return during the printed window.

Unfortunately, the notices you describe are only effective on reasonable people. SG's are completely immune to these measures. And the truly effective measures -- like hitting them over the head with a brick -- aren't in line with Disney standards for treatments of guests. (Sadly.)

What?! They're not? You mean all the trouble I've gone to to collect a bunch of bricks while on my time off was for nothing? :mad:

Is it okay to hit them with half-bricks? I can somewhat easily turn all these full bricks into half-bricks, plus they'll go twice as far. :twisted:

As long as you use the approved Disney Grip to hold the bricks, you are a-OK !

Don't forget to stay in your green zone ... maybe yellow in extreme circumstances.

I would think this is a good new E-ticket ride.

I don't think there is any safety in the motion of flying bricks.

There can be at *one* end of the flight. :D: Both ends if you have good posture and bad aim.

Throwing bricks reminds me of the old Krazy Kat and Ignatz Mouse comics/cartoons. :D:

I like my theory, being female I don't leave my house without a weapon.
My purse could double as a nice concussion weapon in a pinch!

Although a brick (in a pillow case) just has a certain appeal! :D:
