Laughing about jacking up food prices and not allowing consumers to choose other places to eat is peak CEO idiocy

Notice how he didn’t talk about his plans to make the park better, or cooler rides, or better experience. It was, “how can I extract the most money out of these lemmings.”

Imagine thinking “let’s hold people hostage” instead of “let’s give them more reasons to stay”

If the food was priced at market rate, people wouldn’t got to their car to eat. But no one wants to pay $25 for a microwave meal

That's because you charge $10 for a pretzel which costs $1.50 at Sam's Club down the road

love how he was warned, did it anyway, and can now laugh about it. A normal person would be fired and never get another chance, but this dude can screw up unlimited times with no consequences!

And this is why people loathe CEOs. Rather than trying to find a way to offer more reasonably priced food that people want to buy in his parks, his first thought is to restrict them from being able to access anything over than the overpriced crap they knew their customers didn’t want.
