Make no mistake:

This will be just like italy in about 8 days.

14 days ago Italy had 20 cases.

Dont panic but be ready

Actually march madness was cancelled reported a bit ago.

Disney cali also just announced they are closing through march.

There was a case north of orlando confirmed in Seminole county. it's a matter of when not if we see it in orlando itself.

SeaWorld will only close if/when disney and universal here do and even then I'm assuming there will be nothing more than "you can take your optional/accrue PTO off if youd like to be paid". Basically like when the parks closed due to the hurricanes and subsequent cleanup.

NBA suspends season, March Madness to be played out in empty arena's, Universities cancelling classes, special events around the parks are being cancelled and what does Steve Ross and SeaWorld think...

Thought #1: Open the parks, we will see more visitors because we're the only thing in town.

Thought #2: Can we make more money closing the park with government subsidies or insurance claims?

Thought #3: What's best for the team members? Hmmm...who cares.

I had not thought to check our stock... thats.. not fun.

And I'm not sure we can blame that all on CV. It only really started causing problems a week ago or so for stocks right? We started our decline in price a month ago. .

Stock fell 21% today. Down over 50% in 3 weeks. SR has lost too much money and now we all have to pay him back.
