The measlesiest happiest place on earth just raised their ticket prices again. And it still doesn't come with a measles vaccine!Disneyland ticked up their single day, single park admission prices up $3, making the adult (ages 10 and up) tickets $99 now.

Oh, and the annual pass? Up a whopping $80 from $699 to $779, according to KTLA. Woof.
