The intersection of sports fandom and Disney Parks fandom has possibly peaked with the latest update of just where NBA teams will be staying across Walt Disney World Resort.
According to Shams Charania, NBA teams will reportedly be housed at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, and Gran Destino Tower at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort. The teams will be housed based on their rankings within the league:
Among the amenities included for the players are a lounge, full salon services like barbers, manicurists, and pedicurists, plus a 24-hour VIP concierge and fun activities like movie screenings and lawn games. Players will be allowed to attend other games, and each team can reserve up to 17 additional rooms for guests after the first round of playoffs.
Disney has yet to officially announce the NBA at Walt Disney World, but we look forward to seeing even more professional sports leagues resuming their interrupted seasons at the Most Magical Place on Earth.
Huh. NBA books 3 of the most expensive hotels on the complex. Shocking.
Does anyone know how long this will be for? My reservation for next May is at Grand Destino.
