I'm having a hard time working up any sympathy.  Maybe it's the tears. (http://www.clickorlando.com/news/Teen-dressed-as-Tinkerbell-required-to-change/-/1637132/14563772/-/6rt67vz/-/index.html)

WALT DISNEY WORLD, Fla. -
April Spielman wanted her boyfriend's first trip to Walt Disney World to be memorable, so she planned to do something special -- dress up like Tinker Bell.

"My makeup took two hours, my hair took another hour, and then I had to spray my body in glitter and paint my nails," said Spielman, 15, who had purchased a Tinker Bell costume online.

Spielman said she and her boyfriend, who was dressed as Peter Pan, had no problem getting into Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park on Sunday. But when they tried to visit Disney's Animal Kingdom later, Spielman said security officers stopped them at the front gate.

She should have said she was a "he" and that would have been the end of story.

Funnnnnnnnnnnnnnny.

But yes.

/Tinker Belle is a copyrighted Disney character, Peter Pan is not.  I don't expect most 15 year olds to catch that distinction, but I would have expected her parents to catch that...especially as Orlando area residents.
