Dumb question - but I remember reading some time back about a place that was near the Florida border that offered last-minute discount tickets to Disney to folks that were driving into Florida?

Does anyone know any details on this, or am I experiencing a Christmas hallucination?

Merry Christmas!

Interesting question. Although I live in Florida, once when returning I saw those billboards as we entered the state and thought maybe we'd see about them since we were going to Disney fairly often, but hadn't done a resident season pass that year. The deal to get the tickets was tied in with a time-share presentation, so we passed on it. I'm not sure if there are other offers that don't require that.

The Ocala Visitor's Center offers discount hotels at WDW and surrounding area, but I am not sure of admission tickets. You might try a google search on Ocala Visitors Bureau and see what you come up with.

Seems like I just read a posting within the past week about discounted Disney hopper passes obtained on ebay.com....maybe you can do a search and find that posting to learn more (?)
