Basically the story says that a 20 year-old man was reportedly drunk and at the Tower of Terror ride at Disneyland around 10:30pm. Man was joking about how funny it would be if someone fell and he did just that, losing his balance after attempting to climb over a railing on the second platform. He was reported to have fallen between 25-30 feet. Man was treated at UCI Med Center and had non life-threatening injuries.

Not to be rude here, but what an idiot.

This is why I don't support alcohol at amusement parks. (And the fact that a drunk guy shoved me at GAm.)

^Support it or not, they kid was under 21. So legally he could not have gotten drunk at the park.

I think david meant alcohol inside someone when they enter the park. But, if he didn't he was talking to his friends, maybe one of his friends was 21 or older and bought it for him. Illegal, but not very easily caught unless you are watching them at all times.
Last Visit, American Eagle BACKWARDS 5 times in a row right before the park closed. I cannot WAIT to go back for Fright Fest!

David.

Nothing wrong with alcohol sales in parks as long as it's controlled.

So I guess you feel that a brewing company (Busch) that used to own some of the best parks in the world was wrong?
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

Alcohol is really not that bad in moderation. In fact, it would probably enhance your experience on a coaster if you're a little buzzed. As long as people are responsible, it's fine. As for the guy that shoved you, he was probably a jerk, and would have shoved you anyway.

As I said above, I don't really mind alcohol, and quite frankly, think it's great that people can do that sort of thing, but when they become drunk assholes, then I really don't support it.

He definitely was a jerk because I said, "Thank you for shoving me aside." he replied, "Your welcome dweeb." hah.

It really was great when a security type dude asked me what happened, and went on to talk to the guy. I'm sure he enjoyed his night.

Don't get me wrong, I support alcohol and when I am of LEGAL age, I will drink. I'm just not of support of drunk jerks.

Hey Look on the Bright Side,

At least he didn't get on the ride. I've never had a Sip of Alcohol in my 22 Year Old Life 8) but I'm willing to bet he'd vomit on the ride.

WAY OFF-TOPIC.

Grammar lesson. When joining a groupor orginization of people, you really should say 'me either'.

ON TOPIC

I think it was his own fault. Irony...

Shoot, I Don't Support Alcohol at All. 3x that for Cigarettes.


Btw, in New Hampshire or Vermont the State own all the Liquor Stores and they were advertising CHEAP ALCOHOL on Every Oasis/ Exit.

Hmmm, Advertising Cheap Alcohol to Drivers. What Could go Wrong :lol:
