And by adults, they mean men."It made me feel awful. I felt discriminated against. I thought what the heck is the reason for this? If they gave me a reason maybe I could understand but they gave me no reason," he said.John added that all he really wanted to do was take photographs of a Toronto skyline exhibit at the centre, in hopes of building something similar.He said he didn't intend to build anything in the interactive section of the discovery centre, or go on any of the rides, which are geared toward kids.Lara Hannaford, marketing manager at the Vaughan Mills Legoland, said it is unfortunate that John left disappointed and wasn't able to speak with a manager.Ideally, Hannaford said she would have met John at the door and brought him through the centre as her guest.However, she defended the policy that requires adults to be accompanied by children, saying "it is a child attraction so we do have this in place to protect the families and children that visit."Hannaford pointed out that Legoland does have adults-only nights once a month, for grown-up fans of the iconic building blocks. She also said the rules are posted at the location, and are in fact on the flyer as well.

So, if the gamers, as a group, wanted to visit Legoland in Winter Haven, they couldn't get in? We didn't have any problems at Disney World. Is this policy only in Canada? Absolutely shameful.
I think so, but that was a Discovery Center, not a Park. That may make a difference.
