![]() People with kids who really do need to go to the bathroom can do so, without having to push past anyone in line. Virtual line systems allow parks to assign a sequential order for people to board an attraction, without having to maintain order in a physical queue. The parks have an effective solution to stop this - and it is not deploying more cast or team members to police the queues. That said, I don't want to see any more line-jumpers get away with it, either. The park is not paying you to do its employees' jobs, and it is never worth going to the hospital to try to get back a few spaces in line. How many people brazen and inconsiderate enough to line jump are really going to back down and return to the end of the queue because someone says something to them? And provoking someone only makes these situations worse. no matter how offended line-jumpers make you, it's not worth assuming the job of park security and calling them out. My experience reading police and court stories suggests to me that there lies some very interesting and relevant information between the lines in this story, starting with, what did the older man say to the teenagers? So the only conclusion I would recommend taking from this incident is. He added that the father went to his son's aid and started to pull the offender off the boy when the father was knocked to the ground, and the group surrounded him and hit him with 'punches and kicks.'Īt that point, the wife tried to help her husband and son, and she also was attacked. "They were talking initially before a battery occurred to the child," said. Itnesses told police there was an exchange of words over one of the victim's thoughts on the group's inappropriate behavior, which included foul language and a line issue for a ride.
