: to stay in the park for at least an hour each day and document his journey online through social media. Then, when he found a new job, he would head to the park after work.

“Then on 2012 July 1, halfway through the year, the Orange County Register reporter printed a story about making it to Day 183,”“And then the Associated Press picked up the story and it became real as I was getting contacted by newspapers and radio stations from around the globe asking for interviews.”

Covid put a halt to Reitz’s streak on March 14, 2020, which meant he spent a whopping 8 years, 3 months and 13 days at Disneyland consecutively. Disneyland has showered Reitz with gifts over the years as he achieved his various milestones, topping it off with an Honorary Citizenship certificate and a pair of golden Mickey ears.
