I took the kids to Disney world two years ago, right after the park abandoned their mask mandate. As the kids enjoyed yet another ride, I just rested on a bench. I sat next to a bench were one lady had her extra-formidable mask on. She was eating some peanuts. It was fascinating to watch the techniques she had to use to get the peanuts in her mouth while trying to not move the covering away from her mouth. She moved it a couple millimeters and then quickly pulled it back into place.

Disney did require masks while travelling on the busses they own that shuttle people back and forth from their resorts to the theme parks. I guess that was because we were all packed like sardines in the enclosed spaces of the busses. But that was exactly the same situation we were all in when we waited in those zig-zagging lines while we waited to get on some ride. And that, on many rides, was inside as well - at least for the front part of the lines.

Gov. DeSantis told Disney they didn't have to close and didn't have to have those mask mandates for as long as they did ... but Disney knew best and followed the Fauci guidance - like a good group-thinking "club member."
