Can you stay in Disney World after it closes?

Some popular Walt Disney World restaurants will allow dining reservations to be booked as late as at Park closing (or even after on rare occasions). Not only does this mean that you can maximize your time in the Park, but when you finish dining and leave, you can leisurely stroll out of a near-empty Park.
