‘Disney Day Drinkers Club’ in nasty feud with EPCOT over Binny, the trash mascot
NY Post
They’re getting trashed at the happiest place on Earth.
The Disney Day Drinkers Club — a real thing that exists — is causing a stink over the relocation of their mascot nicknamed “Binny,” a gray trash can that looks like any other at Disney’s EPCOT in Orlando, Florida.
Binny, which was located outside the Rose & Crown pub, has garnered a cult following with the Disney Day Drinkers Club, an unofficial boozy group that meets regularly to get sloshed at the theme park.
But the crew, also referred to as Club D3, is now trash-talking Disney, according to the Wall Street Journal, after staff at the theme park recently decided to move their beloved Binny.
Binny became the club’s mascot in 2021 when some members were “drinking around the world” in EPCOT.
“As most people know it’s hard to find a table when you need to set your drink down as you are day drinking. Usually the nearest trashcan will suffice. On one of our first meet-ups, we were drinking around the world and we discovered the perfect Disney Day Drinkers club mascot,” the club’s website said of their mascot.
DEAR ABBY: I recently married an old high school flame after 30 years apart. Since we are both in our 50s, we wanted a low-key ceremony — no wedding, no fuss, just us, madly in love and doing our thing. My older sister, the only person we told, begged me to be included — “At least let me sign as witness. At least let me bring a cake. At least let me do flowers.” We took her with us to the courthouse, and she took many pictures, which will be cherished.
