There is a culture of adults known as “Disney Adults,” who love all things Walt has to offer and will spend every vacation they have visiting Disney World.

This couple has taken that notion the extreme.

Scott and Diane Anderson were members of the exclusive Disney organization Club 33 but were kicked out of the club after Scott was allegedly drunk in public.

They’ve spent a ton of money trying to fight their way back in.  A TON of money.

Club 33 offers members lavish perks, including access to exclusive lounges, dining, VIP tours and special events.

According to the Los Angeles Times, the club’s annual dues were $31,500, and due to travel and hotel expenses, the Andersons were spending $125,000 every year visiting Disney.

Currently, the Andersons have spent upwards of $400,000 on legal fees trying to obtain their membership back into Club 33.

Disney alleges that Scott showed signs of public intoxication back in 2017, something forbidden by Club 33’s rules.  An attorney representing Disney said, “They did not want to pay the consequences of failing to follow the rules,” adding that Scott’s conduct “cost his wife of 40 years her lifetime dream of having access to Club 33.”

Scott and his wife have been fighting to gain re-admission to the club since.  Scott said he’s set his retirement back “5 years” to the funds they’ve spent, but his wife wants to keep fighting.

“I’ll sell a kidney,” Diana said. “I don’t care.”
