Disney has opted for the creative route towards succe🎉ssfully enforcing social distancing at 🐼their Disney Springs entertainment and retail complex in Florida. That of course involves Storm Troopers.
Disney Springs recently began the implementation of a phased reopening of its operations, after the temporary suspension of activiti💜es in response to the coronavirus pandemic. You can have a look at the extensive guide detailing the specific health and safety measures in compliance with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines and the like .
As a means of keeping an eye on its visitors since the reopening, Disney Springs is assigning Star Wars St💟orm Troopers to the responsibility of enforcing social distancing. Well, "enforcing" makes it sound a bit too police-state-y. In reality, it's just a pair of bantering actors in full Storm Trooper gear stationed above a plaza in the Springs, who throw out a stream of amusing dialogues𝔉 and well-intentioned commands directed towards visitors walking by.
You can enjoy a snippet of the spectacle on , as captured by one of the unsuspecting passers-by. Evidently it's a great way to encourage people to keep a safe following distance from one another whilst browsing the shops and restaurants that have been reopened. Although perhaps the skits are actually a bit too entertaining, as you'll see people wanting to hang about and watch the performers instead of ge🐼tting a move on as they ought to be. The burden of being too hilarious is a heavy one.
Little moments like this give us a bit of a boost, especially after hearing things like Disney theme parks thanks to their being closed since March this year. Whilst we continue still to receive blow after blow during these trash times, it's encouraging to ♛see signs of life being reintroduced into the things and places we love.
