On Jan. 17, 2023, the Disney blog Mouse Trap News reported that Waffle House was coming to the Magic Kingdom park at Disney World in Orlando, Florida. The headline read, Waffle House Replacing Casey's Corner at Magic Kingdom. However, this was nothing more than a satire article that was written for fun. According to the About page on the Mouse Trap News website, Mouse Trap News was created on a whim to have some fun and write stories about Disney we wish were true. In other words, no, Waffle House wasn't opening in the future inside Disney World. In the past, readers asked us by email and on social media about other articles published by Mouse Trap News. For example, we previously published about the website's stories that said a man lost his hands on Space Mountain, that YouTuber MrBeast was renting out Magic Kingdom for a day, and that Disney had filed a patent for a roller coaster that jumps tracks. Part of the satirical article about Waffle House coming to Disney World was written like this: Mouse Trap News also uploaded a TikTok video that promoted the imaginative tale about Waffle House and Disney World: One commenter asked for a timeline on when Waffle House would open up, apparently not realizing it was satire. Another user commented, Please tell me this is a joke. A third person added, No, I loved Casey's. Quite a few commenters posted the phrase, The Waffle House has found its new host. According to Distractify.com, this was nothing more than a meaningless meme to troll the internet that originated with the YouTube account Jonny RaZeR Shorts. In the video, Mouse Trap News credited user @pgibbs22 for one of the clips. That clip showed a nearly empty, fantasy-like, early-morning walk on Main Street, USA inside the Magic Kingdom, with the 1894 song The Sidewalks of New York playing over the loudspeakers.
