A lot of people have been wondering why Disne does not give FIRST the press it deserves. Well, I know many people who work for disney (the company I work for is one of disneys biggest suppliers), and I know how disney works. Disney is all about making money (evident in their food prices, etc.). Look at all these events hosted at disney that get press, they are inside of the park, so people have to buy a ticket to get into disney to see the event. Now look at our event, we are too big to be inside the park, so we have that wonderful venue set up in the parking lot, so people don't have to buy a ticket to get in, all they need to do is pay for parking. So, disney only mentions it inside the brochures that they give out in the park, so people who have already bought their tickets can go see the competition. I am not 100% positive, but this is quite likely the reason for the lack of press.
