The Magic Kingdom isn’t always the happiest place on Earth for everyone. Former wrestler, Magnum T.A., learned this first hand when he was denied access to the park yesterday, August 9.
Magnum T.A uses a Segway with a built-in seat as his preferred form of mobility. The professional wrestler is paralyzed with injuries sustained from wrestling and a serious car accident that ended his career in 1986.
While Segways are not explicitly listed on Disney Park‘s banned items, descriptions of similar items are listed.
Many people have taken to Twitter to express how unhappy they were with Magnum T.A’s denial including his stepdaughter, Tessa Blanchard.
Disney’s Magic Kingdom is refusing to let my stepdad and my little siblings into the park with his Segway. He uses this in place of walking

Because he is paralyzed. This is absolutely ridiculous. He surprised them with a trip to Disney & then gets turned away? Happiest place on ?
