Chase Holderby was a visitor at Walt Disney World's EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival

A Florida man was reportedly arrested after authorities said he caused a disturbance at the Food and Wine Festival at Walt Disney World's Epcot park.

According to FOX 35, park security and a deputy said Chase Holderby, of Merritt Island, Florida, was being very loud and stumbling around the American Adventure Pavilion after witnesses said he chugged two beers in approximately 30 seconds. 

A deputy wrote in an arrest report that the 30-year-old was shaking everyone's hand in line, high-fiving people and staggering.

Shortly after, Holderby was involved in a verbal dispute with members of his party near the Japan Pavilion.

By the time Holderby arrived at the Morocco Pavilion, security asked him to leave.

"We followed Holderby to the International Gateway exit while he took his shirt off and continued asking what he had done wrong," the report said. 

As he headed toward the Disney Skyliner gondolas, Holderby continued to scream.

"Once in the line queue, he continued to act belligerent and cause the crowd of people in line to become alarmed," the deputy said. "While attempting to get him onto the physical gondola car, he wouldn't initially get in and was dangerously close to falling into the area beneath where the attraction operates."
