Disney Gave Dee Snider the ‘Rona

Dee Snider recently tested positive for COVID-19, despite being fully vaccinated. And although the Ted Nugents of the world will surely see this as “evidence” that the vaccine is ineffective and really meant to magnetize Americans for whatever reason, Snider has a simpler theory: there’s too many unvaccinated assholes in the world, and his wife took their grandkids to Disney World (or maybe Disneyland — we’ll circle back to that), where they are not, at present, doing anything to stop the spread of the virus amongst visitors.

Snider tells Ultimate Classic Rock (not to be confused with Introductory Classic Rock or Auxiliary Classic Rock):

 “I’ve been having problems with my home studio and got COVID in spite of the fact that I’m fully vaccinated. It happened a few days ago. This is about day five. It was really minor, like, nothing that Advil and Sudafed [couldn’t handle].

“But…I don’t want to bring my studio guy into fix my technology. I told him to stay out of here. Even though I feel fine, I don’t want to take a chance. Hopefully, I’ll be super-immune. Like I said, I’m fully vaccinated, plus [I got] COVID.

“I won’t say that I had no effects. It was a little aches and pains, a little stuffiness. But like I said, a Sudafed and a couple of Advil and I was just doing everything, business as usual. You know, I said, ‘Maybe I’ll get tested just for the hell of it.’ I got a home test and I’m like, ‘What the fuck?’”

Snider continued:

“My wife decided [to take the grandkids] to Disney World [because they wanted to go]. ‘Okay, I’m going to take you to Disney World.’ She looks online – reservations only, limited [number of] people in, social distancing, masks, must be vaccinated, if not vaccinated, must be tested.

“So, okay, great. She gets all of the tickets, $1,000 worth of tickets and goes there. No one checks vaccination, no one checks tests. No one’s enforcing masks. It’s packed and they’re all in lines waiting for an hour.

“They came back and brought it back with them. There was zero enforcement.”

Snider has even shared his woeful tale on social media, in case fans don’t read Ultimate Classic Rock (not to be confused with Initial Classic Rock or Inessential Classic Rock)… but also tagged Disenyland, and not Disney World, which is a little confusing but whatever I guess, the general message — “Fuck Disney” — comes through pretty clear:

“WARNING!! While online & publicly Disneyland claims strict enforcement of Covid protocols, AT THE PARK THEY ARE DOING NOTHING TO ENFORCE OR PROTECT PEOPLE! My wife & daughter took our grandkids to the park last week & BROUGHT COVID INTO OUR HOME!! STAY AWAY FROM DISNEY!!”

Truthfully, “STAY AWAY FROM DISNEY!!” is just good life advice in general, pandemic or not. So regardless of how Snider actually contracted COVID-19, you should listen to the man. Real metalheads go to janky local amusement parks where there’s a 50/50 chance the rollercoaster might fly off its rails, not this corporate shit.
