It’d be really funny if Disney instated vaccination mandates for visiting their properties in Florida
That's not how humor works.
Many of their repeat customers live in Florida. They won't be vaccinated, and they will not bring proof of vaccination to Disney World. They will bring their shitty attitude, however. They're the only ones who are going to be stupid enough to visit Disney, so they will be the main customers Disney has to cater to.
The governor is also looking to pick fights with Disney over anything.
The tourism drops in Florida over the Summer have already been significant, and they're mainly MAGA nazi assholes. Disney will be the home of "patient zero" for many years to come as it spreads disease all over the World.
Not funny as in “ha ha”
Which would make it even funnier.
Don't those people get the cheap off-season date passes rather than the expensive crowded-date passes?
Disney is also about the only entity in the state that can tell the governor to fuck off, which is also funny. And sad.
Locals also don't stay in the Disney hotels most likely. These locals are just way less revenue per visit than someone coming from the other side of the country, or another continent. The kinda people who would be for vaccine mandates.
All in all, this could go either way.
next step: fried bat on a stick.
