Walt Disney World Resort offers wheelchair and electric conveyance vehicle (ECV) rentals to help Guests navigate the Disney Parks. While ECVs and scooters are extremely helpful to disabled Guests and those with mobility issues, they’re occasionally involved in accidents when they’re going too fast or Guests step in front of them.

Medics were called to the scene of a scooter accident at San Angel Inn, a restaurant in the Mexico World Showcase Pavilion at EPCOT. A Guest was run down by a scooter after standing up to move tables. The victim shared their experience on Reddit.

“As we were relocating, by following the hostess, a woman on a scooter hit me from behind,” u/welkikitty recalled. “She hit me with such force I fell down.”

The victim was okay, but the woman in the ECV was furious. “She was screaming she was going to sue Disney for lack of accessibility in that area,” the Guest explained. “Medics were called to help me, but she kept yelling she was injured too (not sure how). We were so fed up we didn’t get to eat. We just decided to leave.”

Despite complaints from the ECV driver, Walt Disney World Resort Cast Members did their best to make things right for the Guest who was hit: “We did get a magical moment back at our hotel by the manager telling us to order whatever we wanted off the room service menu, and he comp’ed.”

Bluey Coming to the Parks?

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney Parks

It’s official, the world cannot get enought of Bluey the dog. The Australian children’s TV show has made a big splash in the United States. At the peak of its popularity, Disney+ managed to snag Bluey international streaming rights, which leaves fans with a questions: is Bluey coming to the Parks?

It totally makes sense why Disney fans love the show Bluey. The show features lessons about growing up, family values, and side-splitting humor. Similiar to many Disney shows, parents feel that they can watch and enjoy this show alongside their children.

Bluey premiered on October 1, 2018 on ABC Kids in Australia. The program, which Joe Brumm created, was commissioned by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and the British Broadcasting Corporation. The show follows Bluey, a six-year old Blue Heeler puppy. Bluey is creative, adventurous, and full of energy. She is joined in the show by her little sister, Bingo, her father, Bandit, and her mother Chilli. Bluey and Bingo are partners on a multitude of adventures. The show is uplifting, comical, and has impactful life lessons.

When they show started getting international attention, the Walt Disney Company knew they wanted their piece of the pie. In June of 2019, Disney secured the in international broadcasting rights to Bluey. The show has since been able to stream on the Disney+ service as well as on the Disney Junior television network.

Bluey and fam

Because Bluey is available on Disney+ many wonder if the next step for Disney will be integrating Bluey and her family into Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort. Disney Junior characters already have a strong presence in the Disney Parks, so adding a Bluey character interaction seems like a logical move for the company.

Unfortunatly, while Disney does have the international streaming rights, the BBC studios still has ownership of the merchandising rights. This means that as of now, the Walt Disney Company will not be able to add any Bluey and family character interactions. The situation is unfortunate because clearly their is a demand for Bluey in the Parks at any capacity.

Any traces of Bluey at the parks? from WaltDisneyWorld

For now, the best shot at seeing Bluey in real life is by going to see the performing tour that is running called Blueys Big Play. Disney did not make this tour. Fans will have to wait and see if the Walt Disney Company will ever be able to succeed in getting Bluey into the Parks.

A Disney character has been up to no good! In a hilarious viral-video posted to social media, Tigger was caught misbehaving at a Disney theme Park. The lovable Disney character was having the time of his life stressing out Cast Members in the Park yesterday.

It’s not just Park Guests who have been causing trouble these days. Even some of the characters have been causing mischief in the Parks. Yesterday, while enjoying a peaceful day at Disneyland Paris, TikTok user @dlp_pass_infinity_tours caught some hilarious moments of mischief from Tigger.

Tigger quote

While strolling down Main Street, U.S.A., Tigger makes a mad dash towards a Cast Member selling ballons. Tigger snatched up the balloons and bolted away, ensuing a mad dash down the street. The Cast Member hilariously attempts to rangle Tigger. Eventually, Tigger gives the Cast Members their balloons back, plus an adorable hug.

The caption of the video says, “POV : Quand Tigrou 🐯 vole 200€ de ballon 🎈 😂.”

In english, that means “POV: When Tigger steals 200€ of balloon.”

Disney fans are loving the video @dlp_pass_infinity_tours posted. The post already has 260,300 views, 20,500 likes, and 200 comments. Everyone agrees that this character interaction was really rare and absolutely hilarious.

One commenter says, “And to think stitch was the evil one.”

A few are worries that Tigger may have gotten in trouble after this. One user comments, “And then, after this was all done, the Cast Member that played Tigger was fired.”

This is not the only hilarious video posted from this Disneyland Paris TikToker. Another video shows an adorable interaction with Tigger where we waves and bounces away. @dlp_pass_infinity_tours captions this video saying, “Tigrou 🐯 nous fais coucou 👋🏼 de la fenêtre du Plaza Gardens à Disneyland Paris ✨.” In english, this means “Tigger waving to us at the window of the Plaza Garden at Disneyland Paris.”
