The couple took over a decade to actually join the club, with annual dues of $31,500, but spending closer to $125,000 a year to visit the Anaheim parks. They were expelled from the club five years later when park security guards found the husband intoxicated in the park, a violation of club rules. The couple has since spent $400,000 suing to regain access to the club and ‘clear his reputation,’ claiming he was not drunk but suffering from a “vestibular migraine” which looks a lot like being drunk and can be triggered by red wine. They claim they were targeted for retaliation because they complained about a different club member harassing other club members and staff.
The couple plan to appeal.
Fun fact: hypoglycemia mimics drunkenness, right down to the smell. Not sure about migraine. I used to suffer from them for days, and treated them with sunglasses in bed, when I had the luxury to do.
Yes I will sell a kidney to keep suing this company that has more money than god for the privelege of (let me check my notes) paying them thousands of dollars per year to not get drunk in their fancy exclusive club
Don’t build your identity off a relationship with a corporation.
If your local country club kicks you out, at least you can appeal to the membership.
In this case it seems they actually own their local country club:
“My wife and I are both dead set that this is an absolute wrong, and we will fight this to the death,” Scott, who owns a golf course in Gilbert, Ariz., told The Times. “There is no way we’re letting this go.”
Sounds like he should start his own Club 33 with blackjack and hookers.
Besides a wealthy tithing Christian, what loser pays 100k a year to hang out in a place you can’t drink or use profanity?
Clash of clans players and other mobile game whales.
Students in Utah universities?
As an outsider who never heard of this case, I’m going to side heavily with the large corporation. If I can literally feel how insufferable this couple is, then imagine what it would be like to have to be around them for hours at a time. I’m utterly convinced that the guy was drunk, and that Disney made sure that they were on solid ground before punting these clowns.
Insufferable couple vs insufferable corporation.
unstoppable force vs immovable object
Honestly, if they end up dead and broke for their own stupidity, so be it. Natural selection should be more present nowadays, but modern society allows idiots like these to live.
There has to be more to the story. I know a few people who got hammered at the drinks around the world thing and all that happened was security made sure they got back to their room safely.
