Knott's Berry Farm has added a hotline for guests to report line jumpers, but will this media frenzy worsen the issue by encouraging more jumping? We debate why line jumping appears to be more of a problem after the pandemic. Scott suggests it’s a generational issue with teenagers who feel entitled, and Philip posits that low staffing creates an opportunity for bad behavior. Or is it a combination? Also, Universal's new lagoon show, Cinesational, opened to the public this week, and A Quiet Place haunted house will use American Sign Language.
