Wired Writer Goes to Disney and Gripes About Beer

I don't know Brad Moon. I like him, though. I like him primarily because one of his ten Disney World observations is about beer. He enjoys beer, and he especially enjoys crossing the border from Canada into the United States where beer is cheaper. But he sobered up fast when faced with the sticker price of $120 for a case of Corona at Disney World. (Plus $10 for a Mickey bottle opener.)

Brad Moon, otherwise known as GeekDad, put his trenchant wit to work today on Wired, sharing his Top 10 Disney World observations with the site's 5.5 million monthly visitors (just a few more than the ol' Disney Dispatch).

We've already covered his observations about beer. To go along with the beer, he writes about smoked turkey legs, high humidity, the park hopper pass scam, and motion sickness. He had a great time and has a picture of him and his family standing in the rain in Fantasyland to prove it.

Seriously, though, Brad's article is high-brow funny and his observations are generally correct. For example, when were you last able to find a clock at Disney World? Brad finally found one near the hot tub at his resort. Time does not exist at Disney, except when you're late for a dinner reservation.

What about the beer? Did Brad binge? Maybe. All he tells us, though, is that he bought his brew off-site. And I betcha they were twist-offs...
