Drunk Florida Man Arrested at Walt Disney World Had to be Carted Off in a Spit Mask

Authorities said a drunk Florida man was arrested for causing a disturbance at House of Blues Orlando in Disney Springs and repeatedly spat at deputies before he was taken to jail.

Florida Man Carted Off in Spit Mask at Walt Disney World

A rusty water tower with "House of Blues" signage stands tall against the clear blue sky, reminiscent of Florida Man's latest escapade before being arrested near Walt Disney World.

Domingo Pagan, 47, of Orlando faces multiple criminal charges and has pleaded not guilty, as he is scheduled to stand trial on January 21, 2025.

The situation unfolded on August 31, according to a recently released Orange County Sheriff’s Office arrest affidavit. It often takes weeks to get public records which is why WDWNT is reporting on the arrest now.

“After being secured in handcuffs a spit mask was subsequently placed on Pagan for his and officers safety.  Pagan was searched at the front of my vehicle and briefly became unresponsive,” the deputy wrote in Pagan’s arrest report. “When he became responsive again he appeared as though he was going to throw up and so for Pagan’s safety, the spit mask was briefly removed from the area around his mouth.”

Freed from the spit mask, Pagan spat on the deputy’s arm.

Authorities put the spit mask back on him.

Pagan has been charged with two counts of battery on a law enforcement officer and resisting an officer with violence — which are all third-degree felonies. He is also charged with disorderly intoxication, a second-degree misdemeanor.

Pagan is currently represented by the Public Defender’s Office.

Earlier that month, another man was arrested for causing a scene at the concert venue at Disney Springs. 

Ryan Tomasko, 38, of Wesley Chapel, was arrested for trespass, disorderly intoxication, and resisting an officer without violence during the incident on August 9.

Authorities said Tomasko locked his legs to avoid moving and squeezed down on the deputies’ arms who were holding him and guiding him out of Disney Springs. The scene happened in front of the crowd who was gathered to watch the summertime drone show, “Disney Dreams That Soar,” at the outdoor shopping and restaurant complex at Walt Disney World.

UPDATE: Spider-Man Stuntronic Show Cuts Human Union Performers, Will Still Run with Robot Though

We’ve learned more about changes to the Spider-Man Stuntronic show at Disney California Adventure, which is rumored to end soon but will have additional performances in November.

Spider-Man Actors Cut From Stuntronic Show

avengers-campus-meet-and-greets-spider-man-6-7994552

According to our sources, the stunt performers of the American Guild of Variety Artists (AGVA) union are being cut from the show, which is officially titled “The Amazing Spider-Man!” It will continue with just the Stuntronic, a stunt-performing robot made to look like the Marvel Super Hero. There will be no more rooftop stunts performed by a live actor, although a live actor will reportedly still climb down the building’s wall for the meet and greets following each show.

When we first reported on the rumor, several sources had told us Disney already informed performers of the show’s November ending. Disney later announced they would add performances to the schedule starting in November. Our sources say performers don’t know if they will still be cut in November or if they will stay on the show through the holidays.

Removing live performers from the show is reportedly due to budget cuts in anticipation of Disneyland Forward spending.

“Dr. Strange: Mysteries of the Mystic Arts” in Avengers Campus closed earlier this year. Performances of “Warriors of Wakanda: The Disciplines of the Dora Milaje” and other Disney California Adventure entertainment offerings were reduced.

Watch our video of the Spider-Man Stuntronic show:
