An Arizona couple, Scott and Diana Anderson, who are self-described Disney Adults, were recently handed a legal defeat after an Orange County jury found in favor of Disney in a lawsuit over the revocation of their Club 33 membership. The Andersons had spent a staggering $400,000 on legal fees in their fight to regain access to the exclusive Disneyland dining club after Scott Anderson was accused of public intoxication at the park in 2017, Vice has reported.

According to 12News, the Andersons had dedicated two decades to saving for the membership and waited ten years on the list before joining Club 33 in 2012; they recounted annual spending close to $125,000 enjoying its amenities, which included dining inside the Haunted Mansion and bringing guests to the park, however, all their Disney dreams came to an abrupt halt following the incident that led to the loss of the prized membership.

Scott Anderson insists that the incident, which took place near the entrance of California Adventure, was not due to intoxication but was instead the result of a vestibular migraine triggered by red wine, a condition characterized by Scott's reported slurring of speech and difficulty standing. The couple argued that there was no video evidence of the alleged behavior and that no breathalyzer or blood tests were conducted to confirm intoxication, a detail emphasized in a statement obtained by 12News.

Further complicating their relationship with Disney, the Andersons had previously had their membership briefly suspended for Diana's reported use of inappropriate language within the park, this revelation appeared in the Vice. Despite the setback, Scott Anderson told 12News, "We are going to continue the fight," signaling that the recent court decision may not be the end of their legal battle to return to Disney's exclusive realm.

Neither Disneyland public relations nor media relations responded to requests for comment from 12News by the time of their report.
