I am sorry, the rest of what you said resonates, but I must point out how funny it is that nobody goes to the beach anymore, it's too crowded. :-)

TBH though some of their other examples like sporting events and concerts are similarly tied to this. It's too expensive so nobody goes. Except the tickets still sell very well, and the stadiums are still largely full despite the higher concession and ticket prices.

Restaurants are too expensive, so everyone eats at home. And yet it's still hard to get reservations at many places and drive through lines circle the buildings.

Its stupid expensive to go to a Disney park these days. Think those places are empty?

lol, this so true and it keeps from visiting certain places. You just know it's going to be either circling around for 20 minutes or more trying to find parking, or parking really far away and then having to carry everything to the beach which may not even be possible to do on a single trip.
