The little-known Disney rule that can get visitors refused from bars

The little-known Disney rule that can get visitors refused from bars

Daily Mail​3 days ago
A keen Disney fan was disappointed to discover a little-known rule at the popular resort that caused him issues in a bar.
The tourist visited Oga's Cantina, a Star Wars -themed watering hole located in Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland Park in California.
Excited to try the unique drinks and concoctions, the 26-year-old entered with a digital copy of his passport and his provincial ID.
However, he was dismayed when staff turned him away at the bar because of a Californian policy.
Only a physical, original passport is acceptable as proof of age in the state.
The traveller expressed his frustration on Reddit, according to the New York Post.
He fumed: 'The bar must be as important as an airport with the level of scrutiny they give you.'
Though other Reddit users were quick to inform him for the reasons behind the bar banishment.
One replied: 'Neither a foreign driver license nor a photo of a passport are sufficient under California law to establish drinking age.
'This is not a Disney policy, this is California law. Unfortunately, many Canadian tourists do not know these laws.
'But, DLR cannot be faulted for following California law.'
Someone else chimed in: 'Why would they accept a scan? So easily altered.'
Another sympathised why the visitor found it 'frustrating' before explaining the rule.
They said: 'I totally get why that was frustrating, but California has pretty strict laws when it comes to serving alcohol.
'Bars are required to see a physical government-issued ID with your name, photo, birthdate, and physical description.
'A scan or a foreign driver's license doesn't meet those legal requirements.
'Foreign passports are usually fine, but only if you have the actual document with you.
'This isn't just a Disney policy. It's state law, and the staff have to follow it or they risk serious penalties.'

Adam Carolla claims Ellen DeGeneres' staff described her as the ‘worst person'

Comedian Adam Carolla has made strong claims about Ellen DeGeneres and the working conditions on her eponymous talk show, based on his appearance 13 years ago. Carolla observed staff appearing 'scared' on set and recounted a segment producer repeatedly cautioning him against discussing specific topics. He alleges a show writer, bound by an NDA, described DeGeneres as the 'worst person I've ever met,' contrasting her set's atmosphere with more relaxed shows. These comments echo prior allegations of a toxic workplace environment on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2020, which led to the program's conclusion in 2022. DeGeneres addressed the workplace allegations in her Netflix special For Your Approval, stating she was content not being a 'boss or a brand' and that public opinion is not her concern.

Jess Glynne condemns the White House for using her viral song

Jess Glynne has condemned the White House for using her song 'Hold My Hand' in a video promoting Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportation flights. The White House video, which depicted handcuffed undocumented people being deported, attempted to capitalize on a viral TikTok trend linked to Jet2Holidays. Glynne expressed her disgust at the post, stating that her music is about love and unity, not division or hate. Zoe Lister, the voiceover artist for the original 'nothing beats a Jet2 holiday' line, also voiced her upset regarding the White House's appropriation of the audio. The White House has faced significant criticism for the post, with social media users widely labelling it as 'abhorrent' and 'distasteful'.

Disney forks out staggering sum to star actress over vile sex attack claims... and she could be the first of DOZENS

British actress Julia Ormond has landed a stunning payout after alleging she was assaulted by the convicted rapist, film producer Harvey Weinstein – which may pave the way for a host of legal actions against Disney. Documents lodged with a court in New York reveal that the Walt Disney Co – which at the time owned Weinstein's company Miramax – has paid her $5.75 million in an out-of-court settlement.
