This NEW Disney World Snack Spot Is One Step Closer To Opening!

If you’ve ever been to Downtown Disney in Disneyland, chances are you’ve — at the very least — walked by Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs. It’s a snack kiosk known for some wild corn dog creations like the Golden Dragon and Panko Crusted Pickle Dog but are also known for their Classic Dog.

Yowza that’s bright!

So, when we found out that a Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs would be coming to the BoardWalk at Disney World, we were thrilled! We’ve been keeping an eye on the progress of this little snack shack, and we’re bringing you an exciting update.

Although we are still waiting for a ruling on an appeal that Disney filed at the federal level, the state-level case reached a settlement. As a refresher, this state court case (2023-CA-011818-O: CENTRAL FLORIDA TOURISM OVERSIGHT DISTRICT vs. WALT DISNEY PARKS AND RESORTS US INC) was brought by the district against Disney. It claimed that certain agreements Disney entered into with the old board were null and void. Disney later filed a countersuit against the CFTOD board, claiming that they willfully failed to search for and produce documents pertinent to the case. A settlement was reached in March that includes the dismissal of the documents case as well. Now that a settlement has been reached, it seems that DeSantis’s oversight board is considering upgrades near Disney World.

BREAKING: Disney Resumes Political Campaign Contributions After Pausing in 2022

By Kayleigh Henniger 7 Comments

If you’ve followed along with the Walt Disney Company for some time, you’re probably aware of the Company’s dispute with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

Magic Kingdom

The ongoing battle between Disney and DeSantis’ district was believed by Disney to be an orchestrated campaign to punish Disney for its political views and that this all now threatens Disney’s business. After Disney pushed back on DeSantis’s Parental Rights in Education law (known by many as the “Don’t Say Gay” Law), DeSantis pushed for control of Disney’s special tax district and insisted that his appointed board be in control of happenings in and around Disney World property. Since the battle began, Disney paused all donations to local politicians, but it seems that that is now changing.

The Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser is going to go down as one of the most fascinating projects undertaken by the Walt Disney Company. Some would argue it was an ahead of its time, unforgettable interactive experience that immersed users in the Star Wars universe. Others may refer to it as an overpriced boondoggle that underdelivered on its premise. What can’t be denied is that, for the 19 months it was open, there was no shortage of opinions on the Star Wars hotel. Since the Galactic Starcruiser closed for good in September 2023, there have been many, many postmortem comments from Disney executives, articles, podcasts, and YouTube videos dissecting what went “wrong.”
