(Orlando Sentinel) – Don't be surprised if the new year brings some changes to Disney's Pleasure Island. Rumor has it that Mouse officials are reviewing the nighttime entertainment complex with the idea of some updates. Given the competition from places like Universal's CityWalk, that's understandable. Among the things under consideration, I'm told, is opening a bowling alley and dropping the every-night-is-New-Year's-Eve theme, which has been around since 1990. And, for certain, the West End stage on the Island, where a deejay is often found, is going away to make entering the island easier. Earlier this year, Disney got rid of the admission charge to the Island, replacing the $20.50 gate charge with individual covers at the clubs.
This is long overdue. I've been lamenting the lack of a bowling alley at Walt Disney World for years. I thought they would build a standalone one near All-Star or Pop Century, however.
You'd think a bowling alley would have been there since 1970. The Rock N Roll Beach Club started life at PI as a roller-rink, fer cryin' out loud.
