Well, dog my cats if someone hasn't found a way to make more money off a Disney project. You can bet that an investigation is underway at Mouse Headquarters to see how their vaunted money-extraction team missed a way to squeeze more money out of their customers.
Since Disney World’s Splash Mountain shut down a week ago, some people didn't allow puddles to form under their feet before turning the situation into a money-maker.
While the people in Orlando are working as fast as they can to turn Splash Mountain into “Tiana’s Bayou Adventure,” as seen in the beloved 2009 film “Princess and the Frog.” Oh, how we loved that movie.
But here's the scam - people who say they were there when Splash splashed its last rider are claiming that they bottled up the water from the ride, and are offering to sell it to you.
One listing is going for $4.25. It's a plastic bag of water that has “Splash Mountain water 1/22/2023” written on it in magic marker.
But for the discriminating rube customer, someone else is selling the "limited" line of used water @ $199.99 for 6 oz.
There's always something like this going around. Used dirt from your favorite ballpark, water that used to be ice under the skates of your hockey team, Joan Crawford's used wooden hangers...open your wallet and make your choice.
Why I'm not a zillionaire, I can't explain, except that I have scruples.

Chances are that any small bottle of air contains a few molecules that Jesus breathed (and Adolf Hitler, and Mae West, and Genghis Khan, and my great uncle Ed, and ...)
