We Got Into Some Trouble at DisneyLand!

[@itslisawright]

We had a similar issue happen with a tripod, and we simply returned it to the car. Disneyland cast member have a tendency to be "Street" as apposed to WDW cast members. It's been an issue for the past few years. Between the false eyelashes, dyed hair, excessive makeup, eye rolling, herding crowds like cattle, and constant complaining about management in front of guests, we simply grew tired of the attitude and decided to not renew our "Magic" Keys (Annual Passes) this year. Oh yes, the experience later at night is much more pleasant.

[@eldavis1311]

That was fun watching Blair driving for her first time. You did a great job encouraging her! I’m glad you stood up for yourself. Good job Jason!

[@JasonWasTHERE]

Thanks so much!👍

[@goblue_ie88]

Selective enforcement is the worse and drives me mad. You actually handled it pretty well. Glad you didn’t let it ruin the day for you and your family.

[@JasonWasTHERE]

I handled it and moved on. 😊

[@luvrtandem]

They were just doing their job…..even if you don’t use it, it appeared to be over 6 inches. Selfie sticks, hand-held extension poles for cameras or mobile devices, flags and banners are not allowed in any theme park. Tripods or monopod stands that cannot fit inside a standard backpack or that extend over 6’ (182 cm) are not allowed in any theme park.

[@JasonWasTHERE]

Exactly. 6’ is illegal and this wasn’t even half of that. This is a monopod. I don’t believe she was doing her job. She didn’t even know the rules.

[@akdisney]

@@JasonWasTHERE I run into a lot New security cast member and some don't know what is in the web site most time I need for Lead security Cast member I have big tripod is 56" in it fit inside Backpack most time I'm teach aid I go to Disneyland 20 to 30 time and in the bag Two and one cellphone mount sometime go nice or stop

[@notanameification]

Actual tripods and monopods are too heavy and large to be handheld. Therefore the rule of not extending more than 6' is irrelevant, because it is a selfie stick.

[@teri3131]

Honestly, that wasn't Jason's point. They seemed to pick and choose who was able to bring similar or bigger items in. Same thing happened to me at a concert. My crossbody bag was an inch bigger than the diagram. I ended up taking my stuff and throwing the purse in the trash. Then I see people with bigger bags getting waved in. Guess it depends on what line you're in and if they are sticklers for "rules".

[@PenguinLoverNS]

@@JasonWasTHERE She couldn't do her job because she was not equipped with the knowledge which falls back on her and her leader. You were 100% correct Jason, and yes, the customer is not always correct. I worked in the hospitality industry for over 17yrs and now the housing rental market. I get complaints each and every day. I love how you showed Blair to always stand up for what you believe in and you showed her you admitted to being a bit hot headed and you apologized for that the same as I would have. Good on you, Jason. Ps, Next time skip Disney and go to Niagara Falls haha

[@FLOWERSANDSLOTS]

Thanks for taking us along to the "Happiest" Place on Earth"! I'm glad you got to get on Pirates because it is SO different than WDW. I (along with family) were Annual Passholders at WDW for many years and when "C" hit, I let them go because of timing, and they cut the benefits for AP holders but yet felt the need to raise the price and the continual construction around the parks was just frustrating and unsightly. Having annual passes and living in Boston was not a challenge for us at all. Good excuse to visit 4 times per year! :) So glad you pursued retrieving your tripod. That entire situation was not cool and the way Security spoke to you was not ok either. Love both of your channels!!

[@JasonWasTHERE]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It's great to hear about your experiences as an Annual Passholder at WDW and how you've enjoyed visiting the parks. The differences between Disneyland and Disney World, especially in attractions like Pirates, can be really fascinating to explore. Your support means a lot, and I hope you continue to enjoy both channels!

[@taffy1977]

Sorry but your reaction is a little much. Whilst there is some selective enforcement these guys have a tough job having to deal with security. The fact is you are a 7 min walk back to your hotel. Security is a tough job at the park and they are trying there best to find a balance. The fact you blew up right away makes me stand with security.

[@JasonWasTHERE]

I don’t agree with you. There’s more that happened. I tried talking calmly with her for a long time and her supervisor. They don’t know their own rules.

[@Packinthebox]

This guy is probably a security guard they were trying to press Jason for no reason they dont even know their own rules those clowns

[@chrismarotta113]

@@Packinthebox lol was going to say same thing

[@Liquid-Ice]

The reason your tripod got flagged is that it is small enough (with the tripod part closed) that you could hold it and extend the middle part and use it as a selfie stick. Selfie sticks are specifically called out as not allowed in Disney parks because people were using them on rides and endangering other guests. Problem is that some people (not you) don't use common sense and will use what you brought in as a selfie stick and drop it while on a ride and it will go flying and hit someone else in the head. I'm sure selfie sticks also irritate other guests. I have brought in a tripod into Disneyland (with no issues from security), but it is too big, there is no way you could use it as a selfie stick or on a ride, it can only be used on the ground. It meets all of the other requirements though, does not extend more than 60" and fits in my small backpack. I only took it out to record the fireworks, the rest of the time it was in a locker or my backpack. The security guard was just trying to do their job and identified it as being able to be used as selfie stick. Not right if they copped an attitude with you, but it is their job to try to prevent banned items from getting into the parks, including selfie-sticks. If you get another mini-tripod that doesn't extend in the middle like yours, you shouldn't have any issues from security. I know in your opinion what you brought isn't a selfie stick, but when the middle part is extended, it could be used to take selfies. Even if you don't use it that way, its open to interpretation and the rules say that all selfie sticks are considered a banned item regardless of how much it extends while tripods and monopods that fit in a backpack are allowed. The specific verbiage on the list of banned items is "Selfie sticks (hand-held extension poles for cameras and mobile devices)". Since your tripod is so small, it can be handheld and when fully extended it could be looked at as a hand-held extension pole. Thats where if you had a different one that doesn't extend, security would have no issue with it. I do see your POV though, Disney should be more specific on the differences between a selfie stick and monopod/tripod, since from your POV it isn't a selfie-stick it is a monopod, but at the end of the day its up to security to decide. Definitely open to interpretation, but thats where a non-extending mini-tripod would allow you to film while eating but not get flagged as a selfie-stick.

[@roberthein2156]

More rational , objective analysis of reasoning . Bottom line is you’re in their house you’re under their rules. All you have to do is be diplomatic on how you express your frustrations. In essence, it’s not your day. It’s your daughter’s day. Keep her happy. She’s a little kid.

[@JasonWasTHERE]

I agree with you 100% and I had that conversation with the female security guard. The interaction was a lot longer than you see. People would not have wanted to sit through the entire interaction. I did talk about how anything could be identified as a selfie stick and that if I did that, I could get ejected from the park. I know the rules. I can see both sides, but my issue is their employees did not even know the rules. They were surprised when I brought them up to them. He was saying things that did not even pertain to what I was talking about. He said that I gave up the item and end of story. Lol. The bottom line is they need to get better overall. Training is key. They charge enough and should be able to give these employees a very healthy salary. This is a very important position.

[@akdisney]

I have one like his And lean the security tell them don't extend then you are find ( key word extend)

[@JasonWasTHERE]

@@akdisneyShe said it’s a selfie stick because it has the remote on it that nobody uses…

[@Liquid-Ice]

@@JasonWasTHERE I am totally with you, Disney security should know their rules and have better training! He should have been able to produce the rules to show you why he wouldn't allow it in, not the other way around.

[@mrsdl3894]

A rule is a rule. That stick extends therefore, it is not allowed. Regardless what your intended use was. You, acting very entitled was cringe! 🤷‍♀️

[@JasonWasTHERE]

Read the rules. If it fits in a backpack and under 6’ long, it’s permitted. Did you watch the entire video before you commented?

[@karene9686]

⁠@@JasonWasTHEREbetter yet read the rules. The device you had could be interpreted to be a selfie stick, getting mad and having a temper tantrum with a cast member is wrong. Simply ask to speak to a supervisor, don’t make a scene out of it. You certainly have a right to ask for clarification, just do it like a grown up.

[@clairesamia7079]

There's so many worst things that goes on in Disneyland. Tripods are the least of our worries. They should focus more on safety not harassing the visitors.

I agree! The funny thing is at fireworks that night, there were people with 6’ telescoping selfie sticks. Nobody said a word. lol. Ridiculous

[@JasonWasTHERE]

Appreciate the feedback. Thank you!👍

[@mikeduke1294]

OK a lot of things (relative to DIsney World) coming from a native Angelean: 1. The park was built in 1955 and they had no idea it would have to accomodate that number of people, thus the line configuration and confusion--which the only way to fix would be to knock down and rebuild (if they had the space, which they don't). 2. Autopia is special for a kid--or at least it was in the 1970's when you'd puke from the fumes--glad you did that one. Jungle Cruise hasn't been good since 1980's--they cut the ride time by 2/3 and the jokes by 99%, and the ad-libbing by 100% due to the humor senitivities of people with lawyers on retainer. 3. Most of the food at Disneyland has sucked since the late 1970s (back to the 1955 issue). Fritters in New Orleans Square are good if you don't care about the carbs, and of course the Dole whip is a must even with the diabetic episode it will cause. The Blue Bayou (the one in Pirates) is ok--you'd give it 3.8 porobably. Make reservations a month or more in advance for dinner. Lamplight Lounge in CA Adventure is decent. Actually the food in CA Adventure is much better generally (up to date). You could also join Club 33 for about the price of a new Toyota Camry. 4. The Grand Californian resort is definitely special if you can fade the $$, which is similar to buying the plaid vest guy. The new Pixar Hotel was a pass for me, except if the price difference is enough, you can sleep there and short walk to Grand Californian to hang out. 5. Keep in mind there are over 20M people within 2 hours driving of Disneyland, and it's not just a tourist destination, and there are more security variables there than in Orlando. I have always found things to be a little more uptight in CA. It's hard to find enough help in the summer for sure. You were 100% right, and you were unlucky to catch the wrong person at the wrong time.

[@drewjohnson536]

I’ve worked in customer service for 15 years and IMO He’s the worst kind of customer. The “it’s not about the money it’s the principle of the thing” customer. Like I have to be right cause the customer is always right, without remembering that everyone (including that security woman) is human and imperfect and makes mistakes, but instead of moving on and letting it go since “it’s only $20 it doesn’t matter” he has to return to the same employees and start a second interaction til he feels he’s proved them wrong and has “won”

[@JasonWasTHERE]

I’ve been in customer service and a business owner for 27 years. They failed. It’s simple. There is a lot more interaction where I was being nice and trying to talk with the woman. I know what it’s like on both sides. They were wrong and they needed to know. It’s that simple. Don’t bark up this tree with “poor me, I’ve dealt with people like you” because you have no clue who I’ve dealt with in my life. I had facts and proof to discredit their bs. Again, the first two were unprofessional on so many levels. I wish people would watch the entire interaction if we posted it.

As a Disney KZbin content creator, I myself have heated discussions with Cast Members about my DJI Gimbal. In the Disney defense they don’t allow “selfie sticks” which is anything that expands which yours does cause there was plenty of idiots who would extend them on rides and hit things. You can argue with me all you want, yours expands so it’s a “selfie stick”. That all being said I appreciate you holding your ground and searching facts before going back to argue more lol You know the rules so you’re not stupid to extend it, but not everyone is like you and I. It’s those asses that walk around with the sticks expanded and then screw us that follow the rules.

But, the DJI gimbal also extends and could be considered a selfie stick. Honestly anything that holds a phone could be considered a selfie stick if you can take a pic of yourself. This fits in a backpack and doesn’t extend over 6’ long.

Disneyland is certainly different then disneyworld for sure. Security is certainly different at Disneyland as well. Not sure why. I used to really love Disneyland, and in some respects I still prefer Disneyland. But I think disney world likely will be our new destination. One thing about security, they really do have final say on what enters the park. I had prior approval from park management on some items for a photo shoot we paid a lot for and security wouldn’t let some of the stuff in, even with prior approval. While I wasn’t able to bring in that particular prop my liaison at Disney studios made it up to me so I guess I came out ahead, but just one security person really screwed up a day for sure…. Like I had said in your disneyworld video I had a couple of pretty bad experiences at Disneyland due to employees. It can really mess your day up if you get someone that’s just having a bad day.

[@JasonWasTHERE]

That’s nuts! What were you trying to bring in?

[@shawnhicks619]

@@JasonWasTHERE I had a droid prop, one I had ironically built FOR Disney, that we asked if we could take it into the park and pay their photographers to do photo shoots with the vehicles in the starwars area. It wasn’t a big one. We wanted the photos for our shop. Like I said I had pre arraigned this months ahead of time and had documentation. But security said nope…… I called my contacts and wound up getting park management involved but they said security has final say on what comes in the park. While it kinda ruined that part of the day we wound up with something that more then made up for the monetary loss and some of the anguish. I also found out there were other ways we could have done this that would have guaranteed entrance but would have cost way more. It really wasn’t worth the extra cost and hoops though

[@katieeyslee868]

Wow, way to act entitled and throw a tantrum. You realize you are making money off of their content, right? Your tri-pod DOES function as a selfie stick. It DOES pull out to be vert long. How hard is it to just get one of those handheld gimbles that most content creators in the parks use. Most content creators have respect for the fact that they are making money off of Disney. They treat cast members with kindness as well as try to be respectful of other guests in the park. You threw a tantrum and then once in the park, instead of voicing your grievance in Guest Relations where it belonged, you decided to exit back to the security cast members and harrass them some more when they needed to be doing their job and making sure all guests are safe. You taught your child that verbally abusing service workers to get your way is ok, which it is not. Guest services are there to address guest issues. It also would not have taken much out of your day to go back to the hotel and drop it off until you had it straightened out. I could tell you were at a local hotel right there on Harbor. You were closer to your hotel than you were to the Disneyland Hotel. But you wanted the fight to boost your viewership. Disgusting. Your video auto started while I was watching other content creators that I am subscribed to. I will make sure that doesn't happen again.

[@JasonWasTHERE]

Katie, get your facts straight. You do realize that most gimbals extend as well? DJI is the most popular and it does. Also, I treat everyone with respect. Watch my videos. The only time people are not treated with respect is when they pull this. I don’t owe them anything when they don’t even understand policies at the company they work for and try to take it out on me. Why would I go to guest relations? I did exactly what anyone should’ve done and gone to the supervisor’s supervisor. She knew the rules and took care of the situation. You also have no right telling me how I should or should not parent. My daughter will have a voice as she gets older and she will not get pushed around. there’s no reason to shelter her from people like this. This is not a normal interaction. You also seem to think that I did this on purpose to get views. I am vlogging my every day life experiences on this channel. Do you think it’s making any money and I care about views? lol. Look at my other channel, Mr. Hand Pay. That is what’s making money. There’s nothing that I click bait on this channel or manufacture. It’s all real! Think twice before you make some ridiculous comment on here again. Do your homework first.

[@chrismarotta113]

Hey lady you are a complete moron. First off never ever comment on another persons kid. Go back and watch his videos what he does and teaches for his kid or kids (jury still out on this one LOl) And for the tri pod issue Jason is correct. They did not know their own rules and he called the out on it. If you keep laying down in life you will not get where this man is in life.

[@stevedj101]

Jason, we go to Disney World in Florida at least 2 times a year, staying at The Grand Floridian. So we pay some big money here. We know they can be dicky about somethings at times, even staying at expensive hotels and paying crazy money for the parks. My wife is legally handicapped and has issues standing for periods of times, so we get the fast pass to help with the line standing, sort of like their bs genie. Well this past time we went to get the pass, they made us go through hoops and said things are changing soon, but they didn't change when we went there in June, but they'll be changing in a few months. Stupidity. So we said, would you like to see her medicare card, or disability card showing she is legally disabled according to the government, they said no we don't intrude on your medical background. Yet we had to wear masks and show proof of vaccinations 2 years ago to enter the parks, such hypocrisy. You have to stand your grounds and fight for what you believe in. Your first indication was to notice that wackadoo still wearing a mask in late 2024, that should have told you right there, your not dealing with people with all the lights on in the house. You did nothing wrong. In fact that should appreciate the fact that your a blogger with thousands upon thousands of followers and treat you with even more respect.

[@JasonWasTHERE]

Hahahaha. Apparently Disneyland is much different than Disney World!

[@roberthein2156]

Your mid judging people, who still wear a mask ?😷 Their reasons for wearing one, are their own. Try not judging others, they may have had COVID ?😷 Work there , thousands of visitors, who might have colds. Masks do work. Misjudging is like ,” skin color ?” Judge yourself.

[@stevedj101]

@@roberthein2156 who asked you mr. helper? Isn't it time for your booster shot? Are you still wearing your mask? Oh and you have to be brainwashed to still wear one, anyone telling you different is uneducated and brainwashed too.

yes A lot belt knife, fights, Knife self-stick run over that stop attraction You know How hard to find a tripod is 16"in to 56"in fit in backpack

[@ZerotoHerox]

“Selfie sticks, hand-held extension poles for cameras or mobile devices, flags and banners are not allowed in any theme park.” You should have brought a tripod without extension capabilities. Being upset with people for doing their job correctly is ignorant, even worse you set a very poor example for the children that saw and heard that. I hope you learn to be a better human being to others because this was not a good example of humanity. You were not being treated unfairly, you just felt the rules should not apply to you.

[@JasonWasTHERE]

lol, read their rules. I read them to the supervisor. It fits in a backpack and doesn’t extend over 60”.

[@jimtauscher4453]

Jason Disneyland been known for idiotic policies. That’s why a lot of people don’t even go there anymore. I live out here. I’ve been there 1000 times when I was younger Disneyland has some really bad policies.
