Yet They're Happy To Sell You As Many Cotton Candy And Churros As You Can Eat

A new Mario Kart ride at Universal Studios Hollywood has a size restriction for riders, but not the usual "you have to be this tall to ride" rule. No, this one bans riders with big waistlines, because they might not fit the ride. Which is fine insofar as you don't want to have someone be unable to secure the safety harnesses, but raises the question of how and why they designed a brand new ride in 2023 that excludes a growing portion of the available market. They couldn't make the ride cars larger? Really? (Wall Street Journal)
