Stephen Colbert took to his show to ridicule Disney for still not having any parking lot tram service to its theme parks despite being reopened for more than a year.
In a segment about "Economy-wide decline in service quality," Colbert said Disney is "forcing visitors to walk nearly a mile to enter the parks."
He went to say that this being Disney, they have rebranded it "Simba's Boiling Asphalt Stroll."
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert airs on CBS and has been the top late-night program in the United States for the past four seasons.
Despite occasionally repositioning the trams around the parking lots at the parks, they are still out of service. Although Colbert's comments about a mile walk are slightly exaggerated, depending on the parking lot, it can be a long walk that must be repeated at the end of the day.
With COVID-related social distancing long gone at the parks, many guests are concluding that the lack of tram service is now simply a case of labor-saving.
