Barcelona star Rafinha accused Disneyland Paris of denounced racism after her son was snagged by theme park staff when he asked for a hug from the mascot, claiming that “all white kids get a hug.”
Barcelona and Brazilian star Rafinha accused the Paris mascot of racist after ignoring the embrace of his son’s pleas, while holding “all white children.” The former Baron d’Or candidate, Leeds United Ace, was torn apart by a fiery social media post.
The Brazilian ace labelled the mascot “disgrace” as he shared a video that allegedly showed that the child frog was overlooked. The clip showed some kids being hugged by the cute chipmunk mascot, Chip and Dale.
Dressed in a red tracksuit, Frog asks for a hug, but the staff stand up. Young people are seen tapping the mascot’s feet on the feet to pay attention, but this is ignored. In the third attempt, the adult carries the frog to the mascot at chest height, but still there is no embrace.

Taken to Instagram, an angry Raphinha wrote:
“You’re supposed to make them happy, not sniff the kids. I want to say that it was snubbing, let alone other things. You’re dishonored.”
Showing that the child’s race played a role in the child’s upset, he writes:
Rafinha added:
Disneyland Paris has been contacted for comment.
The incident last month claimed that administrative errors ruined the magical Disney holiday after park tickets were cancelled.
Sue’s batters had split over £3,000, taking their two daughters and five grandchildren to a three-day break at Disneyland Paris. Comprehensive deals booked throughout the time and for travelling in the UK include Eurostar trips, hotel stays and access to both Disneyland and Walt Disney Studios.
The 68-year-old said he learned that everything was up until their last day, their Disneyland tickets suddenly stopped working and that they had been cancelled.
She said: “I was crying. My grandson kept asking me why I was crying. When I had five kids who wanted to go to Disney, they couldn’t understand why we weren’t in.”
Since then, the London-based company has apologised and admitted that tickets for the day were cancelled by the supplier without notice.
Sue, who lives in All-Hello on Kent’s Who Peninsula, didn’t know of any travel agencies and was initially wary of package deals that popped up on her Facebook timeline.
