No, I am a dad who likes to take some vacations for me and some for my family.
I love that your idea of a vacation for the family is where you hide from them all day and drink.

Disney's biggest problem is budget resorts....if you get rid of the All Stars, the Art of Animation, the Pop Centruy, etc then you price out a lot of trash and voila Disney is great again.....they made a good move in banning smoking though so I'm hoping that helps...we just went during Mardi Gras and you just can't even understand the sheer amount of fat trash that descends on that place now....BUT my daughter loved it which was worth every bit of my discomfort.


I agree with you in a sense.

But, a lot of the trash at the parks is home grown FL trash, who get a way bigger discount on tickets/food for being a resident of FL.

And I have been known to sneak away while in Epcot for 30 minutes to the tequila bar in the Mexican temple a time or two. But that is usually it. I haven’t found a ton of dads hanging out by the bar. That bar in the temple is usually extremely busy too.

I just went in May and prefer to go in February as well. Too many scooters, too much heat.

You take a family trip to drink alone.

Just put on a family themed T-shirt and shut your mouth. I’m sure you could get some of those T-shirt’s free if you put a aggressively worded message to Fruit of the Loom also. Don’t brag that you are one of those POS that writes letters complaining about things in order to get the things you are bitching about free. Real men just don’t go back.

OP is mad because there aren’t more spots for him to go get drunk and hit on other dads

This. If you had a bad time at Disney, YOU planned bad.
I always have a good time, just leave the stress outside. Taking two years off for Star wars to settle down.

thanks for letting us know that you can't handle 3 or 5 hours with the wife and kids without boozing

I wouldn’t even want to be drinking during the day on a family vacation in hot arse Florida surrounded by crowds, kids, and fatties.

That’s why I bring Vicodin.

Luckily, my wife likes to go on the rides with the younger two and the older two go off on their own so I am happy at three of the parks as they all have a bar area where you can drink and shoot the bull with other dads hiding out. Magic Kingdom badly needs a bar or lounge on site as I must bring a plastic flask of Blanton's there to sip.


If this thread isnt a troll, thats pretty sad. I don’t know how someone can drop a few grand on a family vacation so they can hideout at a bar with random strangers while their wife and kids go enjoy the rides and attractions. And its too damn hot this time of year to be day drinking while walking around Disneyworld

Everybody in the fam gets "their" day during vacation. Dad's day has craft beers which Disney does pretty well (Hollywood Studios tap room). Kids know what parents are doing so responsibility is key. I too enjoy Disney. I don't think OP is as bad as he first came off.

So, to spend a day with your family you need a flask? Sounds like you may need to re-evaluate your life.

Disney is actually pretty awesome if you don’t go when it’s super hot and also don’t bring the kids

I have not gone in awhile.

Kids are in college.

It was fun when they were under 10.
I loved seeing them excited.

I would not choose to go there for me, but some people like it.

I can say with 100% certainty that there are no bars in the parks with dads shooting the shite while they hideout.


The tequila bar in Mexico and the hidden Sake bar in Japan are pretty decent... crowded, but if you get a table, you can get pretty sloppy if you got the cash and you're out of the normal crowd scootin' around

F you bro. Locals get discounts on tickets but most trashy locals go to Universal. The trash you see at Disneyworld are out-of-staters and tourists.
