What BBN said about it

  1. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIt's five-thirty Eastern, this is The Pile-On, and Disney World's one-day Park Hopper pass is now three hundred and one dollars on peak weekends, and I say that's a bargain for magic.

  2. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThree hundred and one dollars to stand in a line shaped like a snake, Vera. You're paying to be herded, and you're thanking the herder.

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYou're paying for joy, Dale, and joy has always cost more than a man like you can calculate.

  4. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentIt's three hundred and one dollars, and I could buy a used scooter and ride it to the gate.

  5. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentI'd still have change for a turkey leg the size of my forearm.

  6. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA turkey leg that costs more than my first car, and I'm not joking, that car had a door.

  7. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA door. You're proving my point, because Disney gives you the whole car, and the door, and a parade.

  8. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentParade's free?

  9. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNothing is free. The parade is just the invoice walking past you with a trombone.

  10. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentOkay, that's the best thing you've ever said, and I'm clipping it.

  11. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLet me finish, because a hopper pass lets you go to two parks in one day, which means the price per smile is actually going down.

  12. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorFine, I'll say it. I already booked a peak Saturday, and I'm only going for the lines. I find them peaceful.
