That's an easy way for them to cover their butts in case, say, a registered sex offender wins. If the person that wins doesn't jive with their image, they have the right to disqualify that person.

Does anyone know what the "Grand Sweepstakes" prize is...we couldn't seem to find it in the rules or the website.
Odds of winning each Daily Sweepstakes depend on the total number of eligible Entries received for the applicable Day, except the odds of winning the Grand Sweepstakes shall depend on the total number of eligible Entries received for all Daily sweepstakes except the Entries of the winners. Dates below are each "on or about."

I think it's a smart move. Imagine the headlines: Disney awards prize to convicted child molester and muderer and allows them to sleep on Disney grounds for 4 nights.
You can't control who is sleeping in the hotel room next to you, but it would look really bad for them (and would be a huge liability) if they awarded people with such records a hotel stay and park visit.
