| 0:00.0 | This is John Batcher, conversation with colleague Jeff Bliss. He is Pacific Watch. |
| 0:05.0 | Jeff is a veteran of Disneyland. |
| 0:08.0 | He was on many rides, famous rides. |
| 0:11.0 | Yoder Bliss, Dachan Bliss, Gloss Boyd Bliss, Engineer Bliss. |
| 0:18.4 | Here he describes a recent controversy at Disneyland in California where people who are disabled are physically |
| 0:25.7 | challenged have an opportunity to get a pass that allows them to go in line very |
| 0:30.7 | fast. If you've been to Disneyland or Disney World it can be up to a half hour even |
| 0:35.0 | longer, some of the famous roller coaster rides. There apparently has been a problem of people |
| 0:42.0 | fraudulently representing themselves as disabled or physically |
| 0:45.2 | challenged. |
| 0:47.4 | And that has come to a halt because they're now being challenged when they ask for a pass that you get for free. Jeff explains, it's |
| 0:56.4 | all news to me. Jeff Bliss, veteran of Disneyland, explaining how the fraud works and how Disney's trying to stop it |
| 1:07.0 | and how some families legitimately escorting or a disabled person or disabled themselves are objecting to the challenge. |
| 1:20.0 | More of this tonight. |
| 1:22.0 | So let's say for example, you get a lightning pass at the park you pay up to |
| 1:25.6 | 35 dollars a person that cut your weight time for a ride by quite a you know you can cut your |
| 1:31.7 | rate from five to 20 minutes instead of a couple hours sometimes. |
| 1:35.9 | So people were taking advantage of that because the disabled people get their pass for free. |
| 1:40.9 | And so this is kind of like I said it's not just being fair to |
| 1:43.8 | the disabled guests but also to the everyday guests and the situations that |
| 1:48.8 | they're dealing with whether it's costs or time in line etc. |
