Some commenters pointed fingers at Disneyland Resort’s decision to expand alcohol availability across its parks.

“I think that’s a consequence of the alcohol being sold in the park and people not knowing how to control it,” said @tanianickycruz.

  1. Disney property is no place to serve alcohol. People who come to Disney to drink are not there for the fun and magic it provides. They need to do their drinking off property and be sober when they enter the park.
