Apparently, you can’t get into Disney World – a theme park specifically geared toward young children – without a shirt on. Who would’ve thought?


But in the past, shirtless park-goers were a rare occurrence. Stolen luggage, a post-beach pit-stop for Space Mountain – whatever your reason for lack of proper attire, at one point in time Disney’s lovely staff would provide you with a complimentary shirt so you could enjoy the park with the rest of us.

But as with all good things, this too quickly came to an end. Too many who had seen the viral TikToks touting the free tees tried exploiting Disney’s generosity by showing up shirtless on purpose, forcing Disney to return to its capitalistic tendencies so as not to bleed the precious little money they make on copious free shirts. No free rides. Not even at the most magical place on Earth.


TikToker @heleniofficial attempts the trick herself in nothing but a skimpy bikini top but is redirected to the gift shop to buy a shirt if she wishes to enter the park. Fair.
