Florida Man Arrested at Magic Kingdom After Attempting to Fire Mickey Mouse via Megaphone
Suspect claimed he won the company in a high-stakes poker game against a 'sentient churro'.
# The Hostile Takeover
The Magic Kingdom experienced a management shakeup yesterday when a man in a stained tank top and Mickey ears climbed onto a trash can in Liberty Square and declared himself the "Grand Vizier and CEO of the Walt Disney Corporation."
His first order of business? A mandatory "Croc-only" footwear policy for all park guests and characters.
## The Policy Change
"He was handing out printed flyers that just said 'NO MORE PANTS AT PIRATES'," a tourist noted. "He also fired Pluto for 'looking at him funny'."
Security eventually escorted the "CEO" from the premises after he tried to annex the Hall of Presidents as his private residence. He was reportedly shouting about "rebranding the castle into a Hooters" as he was led away.
## Empire Analysis:
We are seeing a rise in 'Delusional Corporate Restructuring'. Subject's vision for a footwear-unified theme park shows a populist impulse, but lacks the necessary board approval.
*Satire Disclosure: Disney's security does not accept churro-based equity transfers.*
