DaveInTN 3,247 Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 They have food and beverage service right to your seat at Fantasmic? Or is this new with this system? All of this technology is getting complicated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 That must be the app my friends son mentioned with the new technology changes that were coming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 They have food and beverage service right to your seat at Fantasmic? Or is this new with this system? All of this technology is getting complicated. Yeah, this is new. All I've ever seen at Fantasmic is folks getting things like hot dogs and popcorn from the snack bar they have there. Now they're going to serve full meals to people seated for the show? I don't want to be sitting next to those people. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
