Okay here we go with one. Two weeks ago, my DH and DD decided to take me away for 3 days to Disney to celebrate our 32nd anniversary. :love: Our first night there we went to O'hana's for dinner. I had my usual one drink that I allow myself when we visit Disney and the Poly. We were shown to our table and proceeded to devour whatever they brought out. No apologies, we were hungry. :rolleyes1 Then they started to ask people if they had birthday to please come forward. Ah! how nice. They got sung to. Then they asked for anniverary or newlywed couples. I swear someone else raised my hand.:rolleyes: Of course, my DH was :eek: So up we got (thinking now that there are other couples following us....) but no..............We were the only couple standing in front of a packed resturant. The CM was polite asked how long we had been married. "32 years", I heard my DH say. Clapping..:scared: Okay I want to sit down now..... No, he had to sing us a song. He even said to dance to this lovely song. (my husband has not danced with me in 32 years, but one time and then he was forced into it.) I feel :sick: about this time. He begins to sing....a very slowwww Elvis song. Though it was about Christmas because he was singing about 'wisemen'.:lmao: I am going okay one chorus and we are out of here. No......he had to sing the whole...song.I kept looking at my husband going, I am sorry. All he did was smile. When we got back to our seats, I said 'okay I am ready to leave now.' We were done eating. My daughter is laughing so hard we had to go to the bathroom. I turned to my husband who was waiting on the check and I said "I stood up there alone with you and you better get me a lei." I am not the kind of person to raise my hand for anything....So me and my DD went to the bathroom and met my husband outside. In his hand he had 3 leis. 32 years still means something.:flower3:

The ToT post made me remember this one~
Back in 98 myself, my hubby, my brother and my mom went to wdw for me and hubbys honeymoon, yes honeymoon! Long story short~ always wanted to take mom and bro was finally able, and hubby and I dated for 10 years been before so....why not!:rotfl:
Ok anyway, we knew what ToT was like and so did my bro, now my mom(who can be a little slow to catch on shall we say) had no clue.;)
So we get in line and we are talking to mom on and on so she dont catch on. Now you would think with all the screaming she would get it....nope! Me and my bro say "oh thats from a different ride" Meanwhile my hubby who likes to "get my mom going" keeps telling her "Sal listen this ride picks you up and drops you really fast, I swear" but knowing my hubby, she choose's to believe us her darling children! :rolleyes1
So we go on and that car drops, and I thought they switched mom with a salior! :rolleyes1 It was hysterical, and thank goodness no children were on that particular ride! :thumbsup2 we knew she would like it (and still does to this day) but the truth would have never got her on there.:woohoo:
The funniest part was after we unloaded and are on our way out she says "I know you think that was funny but I almost lost my false teeth, I had to put my hand over my mouth and push them back in" :lmao: Well I think we just about peed our pants~:rotfl:
To this day we say "mom hold your teeth we are doing ToT" :laughing:

Oh boy, I have not read this whole thread but I have one!! I guess I'm not too embarrassed about it now but 6 years ago I was a tad bit. It was our first trip to WDW, at the time we only had one child DS3. DS was potty training at the time and was doing good with that, in fact to good. So here we are, our first time in the Magic Kingdom, amazed by all of its magic. We were all so excited, DS was so excited he did not want to take the time to got to the bathroom, as we stood looking at the park map, DS got out of his stroller, pulled down his pants and peed right there in public. Before we realized it he had relived himself right there in front of Ariel's grotto! Now we make sure to ask our kids if they need to go potty, cause you never know when they are going to whip it out:rotfl2:

Not terribly embarassing but when we were down last August, my fiances father realized that the "Good morning" song they sing during rope drop at the Magic Kingdom is the same used in a "Male enhancement" commercial here in Canada. The fun part was when he told us and then proceeded to tell everyone around him and about 5 waiters while we were eating through the week, and then the people at concierge at Pop, and then the...

These are sooo funny!
Here is mine:
We were leaving Epcot after Illuminations, and had our son in a stroller...
Funny huh?
Wait, it gets better....
You know how the CM's at Epcot will say "Goodbye Prince (or princess)?
We had one of those, a nice woman from Norway.
She bent down to look at DS (who was 4) and said "Goodbye Prince.." then stood up right away with a sour look on her face, and promptly shot us, his parents, a very nasty look!
Really funny now, right?
It might help you dear readers to understand one thing, well two things.
Thing one: There were toys behind her that he was pointing at.
Thing two: He was in the (horrible) habit of pointing with his middle finger at things he wanted...
We looked down just in time to see that darned finger pointing at those toys and him, obliviously saying "I want that toy.."
That poor woman is in Norway now I bet telling everyone she knows about those little American Brats!

Ummmmm......
Okay here's the story about my little American Brat ...........
DS 3 1/4 years old at the time, walks up to me and is using one hand to fold the fingers on his other hand just so. He's trying to get it so that he can hold up one finger, but not any finger, a particular finger, the one that has the boo boo on it so that he can show it to me and I can kiss it. This is what he showed me. Which I promptly kissed ......... and then I went and got my camera and told him to show me again, when he asked why I told him I had to take a picture of it to show the doctor. I KNOW - I'M BAD!!!!! but it's a great picture!

so i have two embarssing moments to tell (i'm sure i spelled that wrong) anywho.
1. this one is a story my mom and her parents tell. they where going to MK for the first time in the 70s when it opened with a bunch of other family members. in the excitement of getting to disney they forgot to notice where they parked thier car. all they remembered was that they parked near a tree. well when they were leaving the park that night they realized that are like a million trees. so they spent like an hour looking for the car and then another hour with security. lol. i tease them about it anytime we're in a large parking lot or at disney!
2. so this one doesn't take place at disney but embarssing to me. i had to have been like 8 or 9 years old me and my family were at busch gardens. i was walking with my mom through a playground area. and when she didn't answer me i repeated myself and looked over to the side to realize i was speaking to some stranger in spanish! the stranger and i exchanged akward smiles and i ran to catch up with my family!

Mine goes back quite a few years, when I was like 12-ish we went on MuppetVision, and after the show, my mom asked what I thought, and I replied with
"it was great, and that little guy was talking to me"
and she said what do you mean?? to which I said
"he said 'everyone thinks im talking to them, but im really just talking to you' and pointed right at me"
My dd (4 at the time) said the same thing to me! Her brother (6yo) argued with her - the guy was really talking to him!
And on the embarassing side...
Before we went last year I measured my kids so I could prepare them for the height requirements of some rides. My dd was 39 1/2 inches tall, and in case you didn't know, the requirement for most of the rides is 40 inches. So...we went to Target and bought her a new pair of tennis shoes with TALL soles. :) She was very excited!
We went to MGM our first full day, and my kids (4 and 6) REALLY wanted to ride TOT. I had never been on it - hadn't heard about it - hadn't been to WDW since 1992 - and I honestly didn't realize how awful the ride was going to be, so we rode it. Well, nobody cried, but my dd held on to me for dear life as we walked out and said "I never want to ride that again!" - NO PROBLEM!!!
A short while later....we are entering the line for Star Tours. DD has no idea what this is but she does NOT want to ride ANYTHING! I told her to just walk with us, thinking we could always do the swap if she didn't change her mind by the time we got up to the ride. Well, they had to measure her before we could enter the queue, and after they ok'ed her and we started to walk toward the ride, she starts yelling back at the CM - "I'M NOT REALLY BIG ENOUGH! IT'S THE SHOES! IT'S THE SHOES! MOMMY GOT ME BIG SHOES!"
I didn't look back, just walked. fast.:blush:
LATER: In line for the backlot tour, she overheard two women talking about TOT, notices that they have a young child with them, and starts yelling at them "Hey! You can't take him on Towah of Tewah! (this is when I realize what's going on but I can't make it stop) Hey! It's too scary! Look at me! Hey! I'm bigger than him and it was too scary for me!" These nice women are looking at me like I have 2 heads at this point. Thank goodness the tram showed up then.
THEN on the bus one night she started talking to a kind woman and she is askind DD about the things she's been doing at Disney and... here we go again... dd- "Towah of Tewah is SO SCARY!!" kind lady- "you rode TOT??" (with a disbelieving look at me) dd - "Yes! and it is so scary it will scare your WHOLE ENTIRE PANTS OFF!" - the bus erupted in laughter - dd is very serious.
The kind lady gave her a Tinkerbell toy.
I wanted to crawl under a rock.
I thought about wearing a sign for the rest of the trip - "YES I DID ACTUALLY TAKE THIS PRECIOUS ANGEL ON THE TOWER OF TERROR GOD FORGIVE ME!"
but i didn't.

if you guys only knew - she never stops talking. And it is never quiet talk. I would be embarassed most of the time if I let myself be. I was trying to remember some other things from our trip, but I seem to have blocked them from my memory...:rolleyes1
We did walk into The Haunted Mansion (don't know what we were thinking) and as soon as we stepped into the strech room, she says (loudly) "get me outta here!!!" so we swapped. And I rode first.
And then that creepy guy zeroed in on me (thanks a lot dd) and had me so creeped out I could barely get on the ride myself!

The only time we rented a car and drove down this happend.
It was the last day of our trip, I was complaining about being the only one
loading the van. I had a cooler in my hands and was trying to go down the
steps.........key word trying....... I tripped, and surfed on the cooler all the
way to the bottom. I am a big guy, it was a big cooler, we made a LOT
of noise. we came to rest, me still lying on the cooler, both knees bloody
from being dragged on the concrete, against the door of a room at the
foot of the steps.
This guy comes out and says dude its ok to love your cooler, but don't loooove your cooler.
Okay I just have to say - twice this week I woke up in a bad mood only to look for this particular story so I could laugh my butt off!!!!

Well I have one about my DMIL--- ;)
1- We were at DHS, walking towards ToT... and she said "well, we're going to go shop while you guys do the TOWER OF DOOM!!!" (yeah, she yelled 'Tower of Doom!!!!', and people looked at her funny- including myself!) :sad2: We corrected her and said, "No, it's the Tower of TERROR...", but for the rest of the trip she kept calling it Tower of Doom. Geeeez... :rolleyes:
2- So my DBIL and DSIL got engaged at WDW during our last trip. For the evening of the Engagement, I booked an Illuminations cruise for us. Well, 4 of the 6 of us were ready to get on the boat and take off, but we didn't see DBIL or DSIL (the other 2). I asked my DH where they were, and a CM heard me and said "OH, they're oogling each other behind the wall here..." :eek:
3- My DH made me go on EE for the first time. My DH's grandparents (YES, GRANDPARENTS) rode in front, followed by my DBIL and DSIL, a single rider girl and my DFIL, and then me and DH. Well, I screamed the whole time out of sheer scardycatness, and when we got off, my DFIL said "OH-MY-GOD. I didn't think you were going to breathe! Sheesh. I can't hear anymore!!" (whoops- good impression on the DFIL... :scared:

DD always wonders why people aren't screaming more. She says its no fun if your not screaming. People look at her funny when we get off the different roller coasters because she screamed the whole way and she is asking me why no one else is screaming and having fun. So feel comfortable in knowing, according to DD, you were the only one having fun on the ride.

I invited my immediate, family to Disney World, with us, last year. The entire trip was shameful :sad2: Now, I can never show my face at the BCR because my brother dared my sister to ask 10 men, if they thought she was sexy... super fool did this all the way to dinner at Cape May's; Blizzard Beach gives me memories I don't need or want; My aunt was wearing waaaayyy too much make-up, drunk out of her mind and my brother kept yelling to her, to "work that walk". My mother was so angry, she told her, she looked like a retarded prostitute, that didn't realize it was time to get out of the game- btw, we were on the tram to MK, during this uncomfortable conversation and my first thought, ever, of suicide :sick: . I almost cried because there wasn't enough pixie dust in the world, to take me away from my sister and sil, while standing in line at BTRRM- during extra magic hours, so the lines wasn't the problem, they were :headache: ; I'm looking forward to going back to DHS, because last year, DH and I were duped into watching all of my nieces and nephew, the entire day (My siblings lied and said they were going to the restroom, then never came back. We found out, later that evening, they went to the water parks and left their kids with us :mad: ); To top things off, the day we all left, my siblings came to our room at the BC and asked to borrow $243 because they "went over on their room charges" :furious:
This year, DH, DS and I are going back and we have gone to great lengths to keep this vacation the secret of our lives ;) We've decided they wouldn't be invited to ride along to the supermarket with us :scared: , let alone, our future vacations.
BTW, I just typed up the mild version and skipped a several events, because almost a year later, I'm still trying not to get angry, all over again. Did I mention, DH and I paid for the entire trip, for everyone :mad: .... okay, okay, I'm done... think happy thoughts, breathe in, think happy thoughts, breathe out, think happy thoughts.....

There are more than 5 states between us and there's no consideration, to invite them to our home, yet. Dh and I agree, if we were to ever move, again, we would just make the gap, larger :)
On our way home, from this very, expensive nightmare, I realized I can never marry anyone else because my dh didn't wake me up, when they came to our room to "borrow" money. He just gave it to them and told me, he felt sorry for the entire trip and didn't have it in his heart to wake me up, to deal with their issues, so early in the morning :lovestruc He waited to tell me about it, after we got home.

We leave on July 4th. We really have this trip planned for tons of fun. We are going to stay at the Swan, for the first two nights. Then, check-in at the Poly for the remaining 7 nights. We're really looking forward to the Cirque du Soliel show, since we've never seen it. Plus, Dh made reservations at Victoria and Albert's, for the two of us.
After we check-out at the Poly, we're heading to KSC- ds9 is all set for space camp, that week :goodvibes
We are looking forward to returning to our happy place, alone :cloud9:

:scared1: I invited my immediate, family to Disney World, with us, last year. The entire trip was shameful :sad2: Now, I can never show my face at the BCR because my brother dared my sister to ask 10 men, if they thought she was sexy... super fool did this all the way to dinner at Cape May's; Blizzard Beach gives me memories I don't need or want; My aunt was wearing waaaayyy too much make-up, drunk out of her mind and my brother kept yelling to her, to "work that walk". My mother was so angry, she told her, she looked like a retarded prostitute, that didn't realize it was time to get out of the game- btw, we were on the tram to MK, during this uncomfortable conversation and my first thought, ever, of suicide :sick: . I almost cried because there wasn't enough pixie dust in the world, to take me away from my sister and sil, while standing in line at BTRRM- during extra magic hours, so the lines wasn't the problem, they were :headache: ; I'm looking forward to going back to DHS, because last year, DH and I were duped into watching all of my nieces and nephew, the entire day (My siblings lied and said they were going to the restroom, then never came back. We found out, later that evening, they went to the water parks and left their kids with us :mad: ); To top things off, the day we all left, my siblings came to our room at the BC and asked to borrow $243 because they "went over on their room charges" :furious:
This year, DH, DS and I are going back and we have gone to great lengths to keep this vacation the secret of our lives ;) We've decided they wouldn't be invited to ride along to the supermarket with us :scared: , let alone, our future vacations.
BTW, I just typed up the mild version and skipped a several events, because almost a year later, I'm still trying not to get angry, all over again. Did I mention, DH and I paid for the entire trip, for everyone :mad: .... okay, okay, I'm done... think happy thoughts, breathe in, think happy thoughts, breathe out, think happy thoughts.....
OMG all I can say is OMG You POOR thing!!! I guess you Win the most embarrassing or should I say you LOST. OMG

Not Disney related, but only because DD hasn't been there yet. I'm sure I'll come back with some stories. Here are a couple that make me scared to take DD out in public:
The other night DD and I were outside when I pointed out the first star to pop out. (I think it was Venus, but whatever.) I said, “Look, let’s make a wish on that star! I wish for a big hug from DD.” So she jumped up into my arms and gave me a huge squeeze. I was thinking about how sweet she was. Then she farted against my arm and said, “You wished for that too.”
So much for my sweet little girl.
:rotfl: This is so funny! And it reminds me of the time dd (3 at the time) closed her eyes, wished on the wishing star, then opened them. Then she said, let's go look in the front yard. I asked her what we were looking at the front yard for, and she replied "my pony". Poor baby still doesn't have the pony.
Gee, are our kids seperated at birth?? My dd4 is the same way. I'm waiting for the inevitable announcement in a quiet setting that she farted. :rotfl2:
Although I'll probably look more like this: :eek:
maybe, but if that is the case, thank goodness! because how could you handle two of them? :scared: :laughing:

There Are Too Many REALLY FUNNY Stories To Be Ignored

I didn't think I had one, but then I remembered...
There were three of us - my brother, my sister, and I - and we were only about 3 years apart in age. I can't remember how old we were, but I feel pretty sure we were all under 12. We are at Epcot for the first time and are going on the Spaceship Earth ride. Pretty mild, right? My parents ride in one buggy and we three kids in the other.
As it has every time I think I've ridden Spaceship Earth, the ride stopped. For about 5 minutes. And we three kids panicked. Here we are, screaming and crying, and our parents are in another buggy shouting, "Sh! It's okay! Be quiet! We'll start moving again in a minute! WOULD YOU KIDS SHUT UP!?!?"
Ride starts again and miraculously we all live, even after our parents get a hold of us after we get off.

But I have a couple to add... They are no where near funny like these other posts.
This past January,08 I went to Disney World with my sister & her hubby & kids. They were meeting up with a couple of other families there too. One day we went to Animal Kingdom and beat them all there there so we rode Safari, after we got off we met up with the other families who wanted to ride Safari so I offered instead of riding again to go over to get fast passes for everyone at Everest. (nice though..huh?::angel: )..well I returned before they got off the ride and waited patiently on a bench by the park exit..
Don't you know while I am there waiting alone :rolleyes: I felt something on my head... A big ol'e bird came by and pooped on my head:sad1: right after this happened our group came walking out and i said "I think I just got pooped on":eek: leave it to my loving sister to just laugh and dig out her camera to take a picture. It was her friend that cleaned my head with a baby wipe:rotfl2: After I was sitting there thinking if they hadn't come right off the ride would I turn to a complete stranger and ask if i'd just been pooped on?:rolleyes1

same sister and I are walking down main street magic kingdom just before the 3pm parade. The sidewalks are lined up with guests... we go into main street bakery and get freshly baked choc.chip cookies with a big slab of vanilla icecream:worship: we come out to walk back up towards the castle by walking in the middle of the road.... my sister asked me for a bite of my snack and when I went to hand it to her (as we're walking side by side) a nasty bird comes up from behind us, hit us both in the head with his wings, and took my icecream sandwich!:scared1: everyone started laughing..

walking around Caribbean Beach Resort it is me and my very laid back husband. Picture the beautiful day...we're happy to be in the warm weather taking in the beautiful scenery of the water when my husband says duck. Very calmly..like an observation. So I look around, just then a big duck comes and hits me in the head!:headache: my husband says.. "i said duck".. I said no you said "duck" you should have said "DUCK".. :rotfl2:

OMG That same kind of thing happened to my sister! She was about 5 years old and had just gotten her very own turkey leg. She was so proud of that thing! We were walking through the Liberty Square area and right after the poor baby took the first bite this huge bird swooped down and took the whole leg from her! :tinker:

Which reminds me of a funny unrelated to Disney story. Years ago, my mom even worked with someone who apparently had been so scared by this movie as a child, anything having to do with birds freaked her out. My mom didn't know this, and one day shows up wearing a bird pin on her lapel. Her co-worker FREAKED out and started screaming and wouldn't stop until my mom took the pin off.

:offtopic: My DMIL is afraid of birds or anything that flutters. I didn't witness this, but when she was out camping with her family many years ago. Her boys thought it would be cute to throw bread towards her. The birds of course surrounded her. She ended up wrapping herself around the axle of the family van and some poor stranger had to help pry her lose.

I just remembered this one. . . . My parents and DH and I were having lunch at Pinochio Village Haus in MK. DH sat the tray down, he had ordered Sprite and I ordered iced tea. So I grabbed the dark colored drink, dumped in two Splenda packets and stirred it with the straw. It erupted like a volcano! It was apparently Diet Coke. Mom and I both screamed and jumped away from this huge foamy mess. DH was telling me to "drink it down," but it was going so fast it was running all over the table and onto the floor. All I could do was get out of the way. Anyway the CMs were nice to help us clean up and even gave me the iced tea I had originally ordered. But it was quite a scene there for a few minutes. Not quite like the Mentos in the 2-liter, but close.

My dd (4 at the time) said the same thing to me! Her brother (6yo) argued with her - the guy was really talking to him!
And on the embarassing side...
Before we went last year I measured my kids so I could prepare them for the height requirements of some rides. My dd was 39 1/2 inches tall, and in case you didn't know, the requirement for most of the rides is 40 inches. So...we went to Target and bought her a new pair of tennis shoes with TALL soles. :) She was very excited!
We went to MGM our first full day, and my kids (4 and 6) REALLY wanted to ride TOT. I had never been on it - hadn't heard about it - hadn't been to WDW since 1992 - and I honestly didn't realize how awful the ride was going to be, so we rode it. Well, nobody cried, but my dd held on to me for dear life as we walked out and said "I never want to ride that again!" - NO PROBLEM!!!
A short while later....we are entering the line for Star Tours. DD has no idea what this is but she does NOT want to ride ANYTHING! I told her to just walk with us, thinking we could always do the swap if she didn't change her mind by the time we got up to the ride. Well, they had to measure her before we could enter the queue, and after they ok'ed her and we started to walk toward the ride, she starts yelling back at the CM - "I'M NOT REALLY BIG ENOUGH! IT'S THE SHOES! IT'S THE SHOES! MOMMY GOT ME BIG SHOES!"
I didn't look back, just walked. fast.:blush:
LATER: In line for the backlot tour, she overheard two women talking about TOT, notices that they have a young child with them, and starts yelling at them "Hey! You can't take him on Towah of Tewah! (this is when I realize what's going on but I can't make it stop) Hey! It's too scary! Look at me! Hey! I'm bigger than him and it was too scary for me!" These nice women are looking at me like I have 2 heads at this point. Thank goodness the tram showed up then.
THEN on the bus one night she started talking to a kind woman and she is askind DD about the things she's been doing at Disney and... here we go again... dd- "Towah of Tewah is SO SCARY!!" kind lady- "you rode TOT??" (with a disbelieving look at me) dd - "Yes! and it is so scary it will scare your WHOLE ENTIRE PANTS OFF!" - the bus erupted in laughter - dd is very serious.
The kind lady gave her a Tinkerbell toy.
I wanted to crawl under a rock.
I thought about wearing a sign for the rest of the trip - "YES I DID ACTUALLY TAKE THIS PRECIOUS ANGEL ON THE TOWER OF TERROR GOD FORGIVE ME!"
but i didn't.
Love this story! Our family rule (yes, I am an ogre) is that we all ride whatever everyone wants at least once. After that, they may elect to skip any subsequent re-rides. My youngest DS had just gotten big enough to ride TOT, and his older brothers were so excited to go as an entire family. Well, as you might imagine, we all rode, and excitedly re-entered immediately for the re-ride. DS did not object, and the rest of the trip, my darling redhead would enthusiastically burst out that he "Hated it BOTH times!" We still laugh about that, would have let him pass if he had asked!

The ToT post made me remember this one~
Back in 98 myself, my hubby, my brother and my mom went to wdw for me and hubbys honeymoon, yes honeymoon! Long story short~ always wanted to take mom and bro was finally able, and hubby and I dated for 10 years been before so....why not!:rotfl:
Ok anyway, we knew what ToT was like and so did my bro, now my mom(who can be a little slow to catch on shall we say) had no clue.;)
So we get in line and we are talking to mom on and on so she dont catch on. Now you would think with all the screaming she would get it....nope! Me and my bro say "oh thats from a different ride" Meanwhile my hubby who likes to "get my mom going" keeps telling her "Sal listen this ride picks you up and drops you really fast, I swear" but knowing my hubby, she choose's to believe us her darling children! :rolleyes1
So we go on and that car drops, and I thought they switched mom with a salior! :rolleyes1 It was hysterical, and thank goodness no children were on that particular ride! :thumbsup2 we knew she would like it (and still does to this day) but the truth would have never got her on there.:woohoo:
The funniest part was after we unloaded and are on our way out she says "I know you think that was funny but I almost lost my false teeth, I had to put my hand over my mouth and push them back in" :lmao: Well I think we just about peed our pants~:rotfl:
To this day we say "mom hold your teeth we are doing ToT" :laughing:
Oh my gosh!!!!! I am laughing so hard-this story is soooooo funny.:rotfl2: I have tears in my eyes. Thanks for the great laugh.

I am not sure I would ever go with you either. And I don't have bird issues! I just don't think it's safe to be near you in Disney.
Oh, I love this! Thank you for sharing!

I see you are traveling in Sept... me too... look for me.. I'll be the one in the hard hat walking around Disney:rotfl2: (maybe with goggles too!) The funny thing about this when I started I only remembered the most recent episode..(bird pooping on my head in Jan), then I remembered while I was typing about my getting "thieved" at Magic Kingdom and hit in the head...then I was almost too embarrassed to write about the duck...ohh.boy...

I have 2 stories to add.. the first one happened in DisneyLand about 14 years ago. My aunt drove us, my 2 young cousins (ages 4 and 6), sister, mother, an older cousin and we parked the car. Of course no one thought to look at where we were parking. We spent the day at the park and then walked out into the parking are and everyone just kind of stared at each other. So, we started looking. My aunt told us the license plate number with the note that there is a picture of handprints on the place, so we started roaming around.. My young cousins started to call for the car, like a dog. "Here car, car, car" Of course people were staring at all of us, like total idiots. We finally went and found a CM and they sent someone to drive my aunt around looking for the car, while the rest of us waited by the gate.
Second story is sort of :offtopic: but goes with the whole middle finger theme. One day we were out at a park with DS (then about 18 months) she starts screaming the F word I am totally shocked :eek: and the only thing that comes out of my mouth is "what?" So, she points at a FROG and again says the F word. I was quick to say Oh, frog whenever she said that word again. ;)

I have to come out of lurkdom to contribute. What a great thread!
My DH and I are in the Haunted Mansion, in the room that "stretches" and the lights start to go dark, etc.....
I thought my DH was standing behind me so I start to lean back on him. As I am leaning on him I hear this wierd, heavy breathing and somethin is just not quite right...........
I begin to stand up straighter, and slowly I turn to look all the while praying "please let this be my DH".....
as I look I SCREAMED :scared1: It was a CM who was dressed as a dead guy!!!!!:rotfl2: He was looking at me with this blank stare and I just started nervously laughing because it was too darn funny!
Everyone in that room turned and looked at me including my DH!!! I was so embarressed and shaking !
I don't think anyone knew what happened....they probably thought I was afraid of the stretching pics!:lmao:

Hah!! That's happened to me before!! The stretching room scene had just gotten over and it was still dark. I was trying to move towards the door to get on a doom buggy but there was something in front of me and I couldn't get around. :eek: At first I thought it was my mom and that there was a traffic jam or something, but I called to her and she was next to me. Then the lights came on and a super tall CM dressed as a dead guy was staring down at me. I screamed pretty loud at that one...:rotfl: My mom laughed hysterically at me!!

I recently went to Disney for Spring Break.
We were staying at the Boardwalk Villas and could easily walk over to either Hollywood Studios or to Epcot.
I am dead terrified of birds, which includes ducks.
My dad and I were walking to MGM and we come across this big group of ducks that were in a line and were staring at us.
Me, being as terrified of birds as I am, is refusing to go anywhere near them and my dad promises that they won't hurt me. (They were on that little ledge holding up the bridge/highway thingy)
So my dad and I slowly walk by and we get about 8 or 9 yards away from where they were.
I wasn't paying attention so I didn't notice, but my dad bent down and pinched the back of my calf, almost as if a duck had just bitten me.
I screamed so loud and I got very odd stares from the people around us.
I glared at my dad the entire rest of the walk and I glared even harder when we walked by a bird. I stared at his hand the entire time as to ensure another "duck" did not attack me.

I am so glad this thread is moving along again... I really need my daily dose of laughter!:)
Second story is sort of :offtopic: but goes with the whole middle finger theme. One day we were out at a park with DS (then about 18 months) she starts screaming the F word I am totally shocked :eek: and the only thing that comes out of my mouth is "what?" So, she points at a FROG and again says the F word. I was quick to say Oh, frog whenever she said that word again. ;)
You just gave me a ride down memory lane. My DS did the SAME thing, only we were in Target. He started to point and say FWOK, FWOK,FWOK! I was trying to shush him while figuring out what a FWOK was. I look at what he is pointing at and there was a frog squeezy toy. I picked it up and gave it to hom thinking this would keep him quiet, and it did *except* whenever someone walked by and he would lift up his frog and yell FWOK!!
I tried to put it away and he started yelling "I Wan Ta Fwok!"
OH MY:rolleyes1 Yeah we still have the Fwok.... It sits on my window sill in the kitchen.
BTW this is the same DS5 in the middle finger picture in a previos post:duck:

Ok...My Turn. Myself the DW and DD(age3) are at the MK last Spetember. DD is in the process of potty traing. She was actualy really good at it. Not one accident the entire time. BUT...At one point down by the Alladins Carpet ride, she gives us the two minute warning...DADDY I GOTTA GO! and she meant it. A guy standing next to us looks at me with sympathy and Says "Take advantage of this moment...she'll never be more clear of her needs for the rest of her life (I note the guy is with his 4 daughters and wife...they all give him the stink eye)
So Mom was eating and I drew bathroom detail. In to the mens restroom we go...past the line of urinals...Down the row of stalls. I go into the handicapped stall as to have enoguh room to manuever. I set her on the potty and she goes like a champ. She announces as much to anyone that will listen...No big deal.
Well as I'm standing there, I discover that I to need to "GO POTTY" so I sit down and proceed to urinate (No need to confuse the daughter yet...know what I mean?). As I finish, She walks over to me and pats me on the knee and says very loudly "GOOD JOB DADDY!!!! I'm SO PROUD YOU!!!! YOU WENT POTTY LIKE A BIG BOY!!! GOOD JOB GOOD JOB"
Immediately, I hear chuckles erupt in the line of stalls....It reached a peak...We go out of the stall and are bathroom rock stars...Every man in the bathroom gave me the thumbs up "High Sign"
You know...I felt quite proud of going potty TBH. My DD was certainly proud :)

Oh lord, better add mine....back in April this year, my ds and I were at DHS, and I am DEATHLY afraid of spiders, we were leaving to go to MK for the P&PP, got in the car, turned on the ac, and felt a tickle on my forehead. I looked in the mirror, and there was a little spider crawling down my face!! :eek: So, I immediately start smacking the crap outta myself trying to kill this thing, all before my ds who was sitting beside me could figure out why I was beating myself up!! I am soooo glad I hadn't moved the car at that point, cause I would have hit something for sure!! :scared1: So, we went to the P&PP with my face all red cause I beat myself up!! :rolleyes1

So back in 2001 we went down to WDW with my brothers, both who at the time were state swimmers up here in PA. For some odd reason we thought that Typhoon Lagoon opened at 9 am and we got there at 8:45 am a whole hour and 15 minutes before the park opened. We were the first in line no one at all in front of us. At 10 am they opened the gates we walked in and moved along into the park. We stop at the first intersection and were looking for that prime spot to set our towels down for the day. We looked around for about 1 minute when it happened. My brother the state ranked swimmer announces to us,"Just put your things down anywhere, I need to go pee in the pool!" As he finishes the sentence 1,000 people are behind us looking at him in anger. We all just laughed and headed off to the wave pool. Now all of the females in this forum are going to say eww gross, and the men will deny it, but I don't know any male that has never peed in the pool. That would be the a moment to remember 1,000 people looking at you because something you just said.:rotfl2:

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading these for quite a while and I guess that it’s now time for me to add mine.
In 2000, we happened to be at WDW during the week of my 30th birthday. On that day we decided to visit MGM and after having a very fun and entertaining Birthday dinner at the Prime Time Cafe we headed over to see Fantasmic (our very first time!) :thumbsup2
We arrived in the theater area about 45 minutes before show time and of course the seating had already filled to about 70%. It seemed that there were people everywhere all crowding in to get those last few good seats.
As we made our way thru the crowd and started down the stairs, I noticed my In-laws with my youngest DD(2 at the time) were a few steps in front of me and DW was walking beside me. I continued to look around but didn’t see my oldest DD(4 at the time) anywhere... Concern sets in.
Did I lose her in the crowd? Was I the adult that was supposed to be keeping up with her? I scan in front of the In-laws, behind them, behind me… Worry sets in.
I turned to DW and ask “Where’s Cassie?” She glances back at me, still walking down the steps toward our row, and simply asks “What?”
“Where’s Cassie?” I implore. “What are you talking about?” was her reply.
“Where is Cassie ?!?” DW reaches the end of the row, turns to me, looks me right in the eye and says “I don’t know. Where is Cassie?” Panic now setting in.
“Is she with your Mom?!?” DW replies, “No, I thought she was with you” and continues into the row.
I can’t believe that she isn’t as freaked out about this as I am. Surely she must know where our DD is if she is continuing to her seat! At this point I demand “Seriously, where is she?” loud enough for several people around us to notice. My DW once again says to me “I don’t know. Where is Cassie?” She is now chuckling just a bit and looks over my head.
It is at that moment that I realize, Cassie is exactly where she has been for the last 15 minutes. The same place that she has been for so much of the entire week at Disney… Riding on my shoulders. :rolleyes1
Almost 8 years later I look back and wonder if that was the moment when my mind started to go… ::yes::

So, I made the mistake of going to WDW with my in-laws and they proceeded to make my usually wonderful trips to WDW HORRIBLE!!! This was quite a few years ago and my DH, DSIL, MIL, FIL, and myself were having a heated discussion about whether you pronounced tortilla with the "L" sound, or the "Y" sound. We had this amazing table at the San Angel Inn right on the "river", a few margaritas, and this DISCUSSION. My in-law's neighbor (who is Polish, not hispanic) told them that tortilla is pronounced with the "L" sound and that his pronounciation meant more than the years of Spanish class (DH speaks almost fluently), visits to Taco Bell, and general knowledge that we felt we (me, DH, and DSIL) had. Whatever, she was wrong and no amount of eye rolling, or arguing with her was going to make her cave...
So, in the middle of this discussion, her beverage is getting cold so she gets the attention of the waiter. This was after my DH has requested a table and ordered margaritas and appetizers in spanish. He had also struck up a conversation about where our waiter was from and how long he had been at WDW - ALL in spanish.
My MIL taps her glass with her fingernail, and proceeds to ask the waiter, "Can I get some iiiiiiice, pleeeeeease?" over-annunciating each word as if the waiter only spoke spanish. OK, I understand the amazing environment, attention to detail, etc. but we are in WDW, not Mexico. The waiter, without skipping a beat, says "OOOOOOOH Kaaaaaaaay!"
At that point, my DH, while tears are coming from his eyes laughing, asks the waiter to tell my MIL exactly how to pronounce "tortilla"!!!!
That was years ago, and my DH, DSIL and I LOVE to bring that up.

My younger brother (DB15) has learning disabilities and oppositional defiance disorder, which makes life a struggle. Well... everywhere we go is a struggle, even WDW. It gets embarrassing.
If you are ever in the World and see a family of four (me, DBs 15 & 12, and DDad) where the teenaged girl looks like she's trying to blend into the walls/foliage, it's probably us. There's frequent "Don't think I won't make you sit at another table!" at every restaurant, and, "I'll call the airline and we'll all go home!" Mind you, Dad is a big guy at 6'4", and DB15 tends to say the wrong thing. Loudly. In the wrong places. We're quite conspicuous.
So... every outing involves a tiny bit of embarrassment... and some laughs. Sometimes that "wrong thing" to say is very funny, even if it is embarrassing at the time. I'm sure I'll have a "melt into the walls" moment on our trip in July...

My family went to WDW in Dec. 2005, myself, DH, DD & DD's BF (they are now engaged). DD & DBF wanted to eat at CP in MK. So we said ok. They made the ADR. We get there, get to our table, right in the middle. not far from the buffet. My husband goes to sit down and just keeps going, topples over the top of the chair, onto the floor. We ask if he is ok, (he's fine. Does things like this all the time). However we turn around to sit and Pooh is standing next us. Asking us if DH is ok. The 3 of us turn to Pooh and say "You talked! You're not suppose to talk." Pooh keeps asking if DH is ok. I tell him he's fine but "you better stop talking or you're going to lose your job".
My DH & I went down again last year. Every time we pass CP we turn to each other say "There's the scene of accident." We don't eat there anymore.
My DH also slipped in a handicapped bathroom at PO. He couldn't get up. Kept slipping. I had to tell him to crawl out of the shower stall, onto the floor where is wasn't wet.

Loved the Pooh story, but this bathroom one reminded me of when DH and I were just dating. We had went to Six Flags over TX and were staying at a Motel 6. I hear this thud in the bathroom where DH is. So I go running in to make sure he is ok. He has fallen out of the shower and is laying in the floor, so when I open the door to the bathroom, WHAM! right in the head. Fortunately he was ok.

We have had many embarassing moments at Disney but this one always makes me laugh. My daughter, who was five at the time, really took a liking to the Tower of Terror. We rode it two times that particular day and she begged to go one more time before we left the park. The wait wasnt too long so we agreed and as we walked up to get in line she hollered "yeah... the toilet zone....the toilet zone!" :lmao: We had to have a little talk about how the show was actually "The Twilight Zone". :rotfl2:

YUCK!!!! I didn't know that there were 'dead guys' in that room!!!!! I mean... I always close my eyes when the lights go out so I don't look up :scared1:
Yeah those dead guys must really have a bunch of funny stories to tell. Back in 1999 we were vacationing with my cousin and her family. Well DD and her cousin got off the doom buggy onto the moving ramp and they were facing backward looking for their brothers and dead guy allows my cousin to back right into him. She let out a squeal, I thought I was gonna pee myself laughing at her. It was even more funny since I was waiting at the end watching the whole thing unfold.

DD always wonders why people aren't screaming more. She says its no fun if your not screaming. People look at her funny when we get off the different roller coasters because she screamed the whole way and she is asking me why no one else is screaming and having fun. So feel comfortable in knowing, according to DD, you were the only one having fun on the ride.
I got my DD on her first roller coaster when she was about 4yo at Dutch Wonderland. Not a big one , but big to her. I convinced her that it would be fun to scream during the ride. Really, where else can you scream and have fun at the same time. So roller coasters and screaming go hand in hand in our family.
Once at a 6 Flags I had DD on one of those Pirate ship rides, and the lady across form us told us that my DD's expressions and screaming was worth the price of admission.
I have to admit, it does make it fun, also take the edge of the scariness.

Loved the Pooh story, but this bathroom one reminded me of when DH and I were just dating. We had went to Six Flags over TX and were staying at a Motel 6. I hear this thud in the bathroom where DH is. So I go running in to make sure he is ok. He has fallen out of the shower and is laying in the floor, so when I open the door to the bathroom, WHAM! right in the head. Fortunately he was ok.
:lmao: That is so like a slapstick movie!

Ok...My Turn. Myself the DW and DD(age3) are at the MK last Spetember. DD is in the process of potty traing. She was actualy really good at it. Not one accident the entire time. BUT...At one point down by the Alladins Carpet ride, she gives us the two minute warning...DADDY I GOTTA GO! and she meant it. A guy standing next to us looks at me with sympathy and Says "Take advantage of this moment...she'll never be more clear of her needs for the rest of her life (I note the guy is with his 4 daughters and wife...they all give him the stink eye)
So Mom was eating and I drew bathroom detail. In to the mens restroom we go...past the line of urinals...Down the row of stalls. I go into the handicapped stall as to have enoguh room to manuever. I set her on the potty and she goes like a champ. She announces as much to anyone that will listen...No big deal.
Well as I'm standing there, I discover that I to need to "GO POTTY" so I sit down and proceed to urinate (No need to confuse the daughter yet...know what I mean?). As I finish, She walks over to me and pats me on the knee and says very loudly "GOOD JOB DADDY!!!! I'm SO PROUD YOU!!!! YOU WENT POTTY LIKE A BIG BOY!!! GOOD JOB GOOD JOB"
Immediately, I hear chuckles erupt in the line of stalls....It reached a peak...We go out of the stall and are bathroom rock stars...Every man in the bathroom gave me the thumbs up "High Sign"
You know...I felt quite proud of going potty TBH. My DD was certainly proud :)
This is hilarious, but I think any bathroom story told by someone with this user name is bound to be good!

On our last trip to WDW in June 06 we stayed at our favorite resort, the BWI.
Our family of 5 returned by Disney bus to the resort from AK in the mid afternoon after a long hot, sweaty, tiring morning and afternoon of fun.
As we walked the covered path back to the BWI from the bus stop with our fellow passengers, Mom and the kids were slightly ahead of me.
I watched as Mom suddenly stopped and froze in her tracks and was using her left hand to check her pockets in a frantic search for her cell phone.
(Meanwhile this sudden stop had resulted in her being bumped and almost run over by others from the bus)
Mom turns to face back towards the bus and announces :
" I lost my cell phone! I left it on the bus! "
She looked at me and yelled " Go Get It! "
The kids and I immediately pretend that we did not know this crazy woman and several of the people around her start chuckling and giggling.
Their looks were fantastic.
It was at that moment that Mom realized that she was talking on her cell phone and it was grasped firmly in her right hand by her face and ear.
Even her Mother, whom she was chatting with on the cell phone at the time, got a great chuckle.
To this day, we still catch Mom off guard now and then asking her to find her cell phone while she is chatting on it. It always elicits a smile.

I just finished reading the entire thread! It has been great :rotfl2: :rotfl:
I've been going to WDW for a long time and have acquired a few stories of my own. I'll start off with the slightly funny one first.
My DW, DS(3 at the time) and DMom (Yes I have taken my mom on many trips to WDW, much to my DW's chagrin) were heading for the MK parking lot on our way to CP for Breakfast at 8:30am. Well needles to say, we were running late, so I parked the car rushed everyone to the tram and on we went. It wasn't until we were leaving that it dawned on me that I never even thought of where we parked the car:headache:. When I asked if anyone else knew where we parked:confused3 , they were totally dumbfounded. My mom yells and I mean screams "YOU FORGOT WHERE YOU PARKED THE CAR?!!!!!!:scared1: in front of all the people waiting for the tram back to the parking lot.:headache: You see, on vacation my job is tour guide and 'm usually pretty good at it. Anyway after everybody in earshot gave their "helpful suggestions" (what character were you parked in? you can call security...) I came up with a plan:idea:. I rode on the end of the seat pressing the alarm button on the remote the entire tram ride looking and listening for the car.
Sure enough the car alarm went off as we rode on by :worship: and we got off at the next stop and walked back to it. I didn't want to stay on the tram with everybody staring at me. A few around us even cheered when the car alarm went off making it even more embarrassing. :blush:
There are more to come…

WE flew nonstop from Orlando to Nashville Tn. A lady was using her
cell just as soon as we landed,
" yeah it was a good trip.......sales were good, really good...yeah. I have
to be in Boston in two days...... Orlando was nice the weather was
great. but it's colder than "heck" here in Tennessee......yeah, Nashville..

Another Moment...
In April 2007 My family (DW, DS(3), DM and myself) went to Mickey's Back Yard Bar-B-Q. I thought this would be fun for my mom because she has never done it before. Well, I forgot that when wine and beer are included, my mom takes this on as a challenge:drinking: . Just to calrify, my mom was 71 at the time. So, anyway, as the evening went on my mom was out pacing me 2 or 3 to 1 in drinking both beer and wine:drinking1 . Our table was full of plastic cups in front of my mom, and she was getting louder by the glass. Yeah people were looking at us:eek: .
Well everybody was having a good time:cool1: and we all got out to the dance floor :banana: :dance3: and my mom was really having a good time dancing with my DS, but then she goes tumbling over on top of my DS in the middle of the floor:scared1: . I of course am more worried about my DS, but he was fine. My mom on the other hand wound up breaking her pointer finger (didn't know it then). She did not scream or anything (she was actually quiet) but we all went back to the table and she shoved her fingers in ice and people were asking if she's ok and then noticing all the almost empty beer and wine glasses and giving us that look. My mom is a trooper though and refused any help and we stayed till the end.
I went to Wallgreens and got 2 splints and "set" her pointer and index finger fingers, because she refused to go to the hospital. This happened on the first full day of our week long vacation. Everywhere we went she had to tell everyone what happened; showing off her black and blue fingers in the splints.
Now whenever we go out and ther is drinking, my mom is not allowed to dance with my DS. Nope no way!:sad2:

Oh, to continue...
My Mom also broke a necklace when she fell at MBYBBQ, but we picked up all of the pieces then. That night however she couldn't find her other necklace and set me out to search for it:headache: . I spent all night retracing our steps, and asked the security people at Fort Wilderness. I called Disney lost and found. I bugged just about everyone. The next morning my mom tells me she found her necklace in her mak-up case. :furious:

I don't think anything compares to having to buy condoms from the POP store. Sorry if it's TMI but I can not longer use birth control due to health issues and my DH was in charge of Condoms for the trip, the ONE thing that was his responsibility. Well of course he forgot and we don't want kids just yet so we had to make a walk of shame. I went to cover him while he grabbed them. There are 3 and 4 year olds buying candy and stuffed animals next to me. I felt so wrong! Plus, people eating can see into the store area too. it was just horrifying! I told him he better not forget them again or there'd be no need for condoms! :rotfl:

Mine aren't nearly as funny, but they embarrassed and terrified me just the same. Last Sept. I had a few techinical difficulties on some rides. BTMRR for instance(sp?) my brother and I were all set to get off when...uhoh...the bar won't come up. People were looking at us like "C'mon now it's our turn!" Gawd I could've died, because we're not "small" people, not too "fluffy" just not small, anyway I was mortified and thought Oh Lordy here we go, I can't believe I'm getting stuck on a ride:eek: and I kept trying to wave over any CM, but they just waved and told us to enjoy.:scared1: I appologized over and over to the people that were supposed to ride after us. TT is next. I couldn't get the seatbelt to stay buckled, it kept coming loose and just kinda hung there. I was freaking out:scared1: !!! My mom told me to calm down, but I was like OMG! I'm not buckled in what am I gonna do?!?!? I didn't know that, like in SpaceM, the buckles don't click until after you pass the second CM. I was freaked the rest of the trip and was constantly checking the buckles and bars:rotfl2:

My story actually involves my (then) 4 yo nephew. We had just gotten off the bus @ EPCOT and I noticed he was walking very strangely - almost waddling. I stopped to ask what was wrong and he told me he "pooted but a little poop came out with it." :lmao: Poor kid, I felt so bad for him! My DSis, DM and I took him into the bathroom to clean him up. Unfortunately, my sister forgot his extra change of clothes - fortunately, his underwear was the only problem. My DSis decided to wash it out in the sink and she put it on a towel on top of her stroller to dry. The only problem -- his poor underwear kept falling off the stroller and his older brothers made him run after it. I felt so bad for him! Needless to say, my DSis just put the underwear in a bag and bought him a new pair to wear that day. It was mortifying for my poor nephew.

I had a few techinical difficulties on some rides.
That reminds me of my issues on Stitch's Great Escape. The over-the-shoulder bars didn't lower when everyone else's did, and since I had never been on the ride, and knew nothing about it, I freaked out and asked DH if the ride moved. A CM saw me pulling on the bars without success, and came over and lowered the bars. By the end of the ride though, the bars had already risen up to full height by themselves. I don't know how many other people may have seen my incident, but I embarrass easily, so even my DH seeing me tug on the bars is enough to turn my face red!

Maybe not embarassing, but definitely awkward...
Our trip last December was with my family and my then DGF's (soon to be fiancee) family. Third full day there we were at AK. Rode EE, went on Kali River Rapids and got completely soaked (except my dad, he was bone dry.) After Kali, we walked over to the safari, stood in line for an hour and were still damp. Time for a bathroom break. I'm standing at the urinal and my future FiL goes to the urinal next to me. There were dividers, so no 1-3-5 rule was broken. All of a sudden I feel a hand patting my back. I look over to future FiL is patting my back. :scared1: Ummmm....what's going on!?!??! Is he congratulating me on a steady stream or something? Apparently he was checking to see how wet the back of my shirt was. To this day, I avoid joint public restroom usage with him.
Needless to say, I figured he felt comfortable enough with me to let his daughter marry me, and I proposed the next day along the river at POFQ

Ok...Another one.
We're in line for the Pirates of the Carribean. DW, DD(3) and Me...the victim. The line is longish, about 20 minutes of wait time. As we're standing there, the unmistakable waft of flatulence washes over the crowd. So for the next couple of minutes everyone is playing the "I wonder who farted game". This consists of cutting eyes at your linemates trying to figure out if that smell from the depths of hell could come out of that petite little flower of a lady 3 people down...You guys know the drill...
Well anyway, about 3 minutes into the game, my DD gets the scent....She curls up her face and looks at me and says (LOUDLY) "DADDY! YOU POOPED YOUR PANTS...AGAIN!"
Dammit! I didn't do it...But now I'm the center of everyone's attention...I was fully designated as the "Pirates of the Carribean Farter"...I got framed by my own!
I really wanted to reply "Not me honey, that one was Mom" but I would have faced certain maiming with that comment ;-)

This isn't really funny but was totally embarrassing at the time for me
My three siblings and I were going on Stitch for the first time. As we enter the seating area and grab a seat, I notice the bars above us. I panic and walk over to the CM operating the ride. I ask him if the ride goes upside down. Looking at me rather strangely, he says no...... that it was only a show. I say oh -and honestly not beleiving him - and sit back down. After being part of the show, I felt so stupid asking that question.

I ask him if the ride goes upside down.
When I had malfunctioning bars, I thought spinning or shaking might be the worst thing I would experience. I'm glad I didn't have your thought, or DH might have died of embarrassment for the scene I would have made when the show started!

My brother reminded me of another one form last Sept. It wasn't really "embarrassing" to me, he was kinda- let's say, "not proud"(at least that's what we tell Momma). So we get off Everest uscathed and head over to the giftshop thingy and I'm all ready to redneck our picture.
My 1st thought:"Hmm, Eric's hand looks weird."
2nd:"Is he...Oh Lord, Momma's gonna kill him."
Up on the screen is the dreaded bird. :scared1: He, my brother, didn't mean to. What happened was that he had some kinda hand sign up(peace sign I think) and he was leaning over towards me a little, on EE the pic happens on a kinda drop, so he kinda lurched forward and his elbow hit my knee. The result was the bird. The people in the pic with us laughed it off. The mother/wife wasn't so thrilled. She didn't say anything to us, but I could feel her looks. She was seriously upset. On the way out to tell our mom the story, I heard the woman say "God, what a little jerk!" :lmao: We left Asia real quick, and hopped on the next safari.

And one more thing ... I'm sure I'll have tons of stories of MAJOR embarrassing moments with characters when I get back in January. See, I have this irrational fear of characters who look like "real people" like Mary Poppins, Prince Charming etc. I'm fine with characters like Mickey, Donald, Pooh, Pluto etc. (I LOVE them) but "real" looking characters freak me out for some reason. My boyfriend and best friend know this -- and have each tried to get me in embarrassing situations. Now, the've never been there together but when the two of them and her husband tag team me, I think I'll be in trouble. :scared1: :scared1: :scared1: :scared1: :scared1:
Any advice?
Oh yay! I thought I was the only one! They freak me out too, and I don't know why. Peter Pan is just weird. I take big wide turns just to avoid him and Wendy. Yay for irrational fears!:yay: :banana: :yay:

DD10 gets really nervous in line for some of the more moderate/thrilling rides; unfortunately, when she gets nervous she also gets gas. I always stand behind her to try and buffer the next person in line.
So last week we are standing in line for Soarin', which she's rode a million times. All the sudden, I smell gas -really BAD.
So I say in (what I thought was) a quiet voice 'somebody have a little gas'? DD looks at me all stupid and the lady behind us pipes up and says, 'yes, so sorry'.

My family and I were at a store and my mom decides to buy a tinkerbell shirt. It's a dark colored tank top with tinkerbell on it. Then next day, my mom wears that shirt to Magic Kingdom. We at dinner at Cinderella's castle. While waiting for our dinner, we casually look around at those near us. Well, low and behold, a GUY :scared1: is wearing the same exact shirt as my mom's.
She wanted to leave that place as quickly as possible. We laugh about that alot now.:rotfl2:

This is my favorite thread!:thumbsup2
I also just remembered another one that happened to me -
My DH and I were in "Honey I Shrunk.... " (our first time) and just before the movie starts I kind of let my shoes slip off a little (they were backless sneakers), so I crossed my legs and was letting one shoe dangle off my toes, grateful for a chance to rest my feet. I had let the other foot slip completely out.
Well - the part comes up with the "mice" running across your feet and I literally jumped out of the chair :scared1: (I HATE that part!!!),
and as I jumped my sneaker went flying up in the air and clocked this poor kid in the head - I mean it landed right square on the head! :faint:
I felt so horrible :worried: - the father was laughing though and handed the sneaker to my DH, who in turn was like - " you almost knocked that kids lights out!". I felt really really bad - but my DH couldn't stop laughing about it!
Moral of the story - DO NOT TAKE OFF SHOES IN HONEY I SHRUNK.... cause those mice feel worse across bare toes!!!!!:eek:

Since we've been married in 2005...I've been to the hospital with him 4 times. He's broken ribs, fell out of the clawfoot bathtub at home, hit his head on the sink on the way down, was in an accident in a different state, and broke is hand (this one is totally his fault, he did it on purpose). He has also fallen down the stairs 3 times, each time resulting in hurting his back. The last time he slipped on a doorknob and hit a concrete wall in the basement face first, resulting in a slight concussion. I was only home for one of these events. Did I mention my daughter is also accident prone?

Sounds like you need cushioning everywhere in your home.

Ah. I just remembered another one that happened to my sister. She has a gap between her two front top teeth. Well claiming she was "hungry", she started "eating" a keychain loop that was hanging on her bag. Then all of a sudden, she starts crying for help. When my family and I look at her, she has the keychain loop stuck between her gap. We started busting up laughing, although she was quite embarrassed by it. It took my mom at least 3 minutes to take it out, hidden in a nearby store in Animal Kingdom. :rotfl:

Last year we were at blizzard beach and it was sometime in the afternoon and we went on the family big raft/tube ride you know the one at the very top climbing all those steps! Well we get off at the end of the ride, always tricky, and my DH asks what is on my butt and I ripe my butt with my hand and it is all lumpy and bumpy and I am thinking what is that, so I crouch down in the water and get it out of my suit and it is something white (WTH) well I'm thinking and I look at DH and I got so embarrassed, It was toliet paper that is now soaked and falling apart in my suit. I am pulling and pulling TP out of my suit as I am walking to the sallow end.
I always put paper down on the seats it must have got stuck because I was wet. The really bad thing was that I went to the bathroom about 2-3 hours before that and all that time I was walking around with a lumpy bumpy butt! I just hope there was none hanging out!!!!

Oh lord, better add mine....back in April this year, my ds and I were at DHS, and I am DEATHLY afraid of spiders, we were leaving to go to MK for the P&PP, got in the car, turned on the ac, and felt a tickle on my forehead. I looked in the mirror, and there was a little spider crawling down my face!! :eek: So, I immediately start smacking the crap outta myself trying to kill this thing, all before my ds who was sitting beside me could figure out why I was beating myself up!! I am soooo glad I hadn't moved the car at that point, cause I would have hit something for sure!! :scared1: So, we went to the P&PP with my face all red cause I beat myself up!! :rolleyes1
That totally sounds like something I would do..:lmao: Just the other day, I saw a spider and when I didn't see it any longer, and felt a tickle on me, I jumped up and beat myself up and took my shirt off to shake it. Luckily I was at home.:lmao:

It is funny but my Dad got rear ended on the way to work last week (luckily no one was hurt and the cars can be fixed) because the girl behind him hit the gas when she saw a roach crawl across her dashboard. I am glad that all were okay but I must say that I would have done the same thing. I hate roaches. GROSS!!!!! :scared1:

My brother had just gone to the first aid station in MGM for a swollen arm because he had an allergic reaction to a bug bite in MGM Studios. We started to leave, then I ran right into the sliding glass door, because well, I didn't remember there was a door. We walked straight back into the First Aid and I had a huge bump on my head for the rest of vacation.

no kidding! I have a friend who actually jumped out of her moving car at the sight of a spider. she realized what she had done and tried to get the car in park without getting near the spider and in the process managed to run over her own foot. the er docs LOVED her! :)

Here is a spider one. DH and I were in a hotel bathroom when all of the sudden he freezes. I turn and there is this huge spider walking across the door way. We are trapped. We start yelling for DS to throw us his shoe, which eventually he did after asking "Why?". I couldn't believe we let ourselves be trapped.
Oh, and to continue the car stories. I ran over my mailbox one time when a yellow jacket was in the car with me. My mother and a coworker once ran from their car when a "walking stick" was in there with them.

I have a good car one, though it didn't happen to me, but a former boss. He was working on his car one day in his driveway, and had the hood open and the engine running. Somehow (he never figured it out) he ended up putting the car in drive while standing in front of it, and it hit him and sent them both crashing through their garage door! He was ok, just badly bruised. The car was badly damaged,and his garage door was wrecked though! He said his insurance agent couldn't believe him when he told him what happened!

Again, this one is not about me but my brother.
The third time my family and I went to Disney, we rode Dinosaur for the first time. My brother, 10 at the time, got so scared that he peed on the seat at the end of the ride. He also couldn't move he was so scared. Of course I had no idea that he did this until after we got back from vacation. I sure hope someone noticed it before they sat down!:eek:

When I was about 10, my family (me, db, ds, and mom and dad) went to the world. We took the Monorail to MK, and when we got off, I was so excited that I was talking non stop to my dad. Well I was so excited and not paying attention the when i finally did turn and look in front of me i ran SMACK into a pole! My family had to stop and stand off to the side because they were laughing SO hard. It didn't help that the whole may down the monorail ramp people kept asking me if I was ok.
We took notice the next year that they put trash cans in front of all the support poles when you get off the monorail and the whole way down the ram, my family teases me that they put them there because of ME!:rotfl:

I have a tip to help the ladies avoid embarrassing moments!!! During the summer it rains pretty much every day here in Fl. Ladies, you should refrain from wearing anything white!!! I see 100's of poor women everyday covering certain places because they were wearing white tops and botoms. And there are some who come to the parks sans bras and panties!!!

OK I have one. Back in July 1998, me and my sister went to Disney. Well we were in AK over in dinoland. We went through that playground area they have there and got on the slide. Well my sister first went on and then I followed. Well I started going down the slide and my legs started sticking to the slide and next thing I knew I some how managed to flip the other direction and went down head first on my back the rest of the way. By the time I had gotten to the end of the slide I was pretty brused up and I think I might had hit my head on the slide at one point because at the end my I had a bad headache. It happened so fast and it almost felt like I had blacked out for a moment while on the slide when I was flipping around. My sister couldnt figure out how I managed to come down head first and laying on my back instead of feet first. I still till this day cant even figure it out. It hurt really bad when it happened, but now it just seems really funny :rotfl: Let's just say I now stay away from all play grounds in disney.

We took our kids the first time to DW in 1995. DD was 7 and DS was 5. On the last day, finally there he was TIGGER! Since he is my favorite we waited in a very long line. A gentleman came up to me and asked who we were waiting to see and very excitedly I blurted out "PIGGER AND TOOH!!!" My kids just looked at me all confused "like WHO are we waiting to see!!!":rotfl: I still hear about !!!!
Does it keep me from waiting in long lines all by myself now to see Tigger...absolutely NOT!!! :love:

Mine goes back to when I was just seven. We were at the Disney Village Marketplace and momentarily couldn't find my four-year-old brother. So I went looking for him. I saw a kid who looked exactly like him from behind and grabbed him by the shoulder saying that we had to go. The kid, who from the front was clearly not my brother started screaming at the top of his lungs for help, saying someone was trying to steal him. I yelled sorry, that I thought he was my brother.
I went back to my parents who had found my brother. He had been by them the whole time. I didn't tell them what happened because I was so embarrassed. I felt bad about that the rest of the vacation.

The day my family and I were at Animal Kingdom, I got so excited about riding Expedition Everest that I began to run there. I uh tripped and fell flat on my face. 5 people came over to me and asked if I was alright. Of course I was. I just slowly made my way to the rollercoaster. I was the laughing stock the rest of the day.

When I was about 16 we were leaving Magic Kingdom heading to the boat dock to take the ferry to the ttc and of course being the coolest teenager decided I was going to jump over the turnstile but being only 4'10" I hit and went flying over the bars and fell right on my wrist breaking it. Everyone in my family was laughing until they noticed that I was really hurt. Spending the rest of the evening in the hospital was not fun.

This is going WAY BACK we were headed home from DW and Eastern Airlines (told you it was WAY BACK) was having trouble with all it L-1011's that were in the NE, seems that they didn't like below zero temperatures.
So in Eastern's infinite wisdom they sent one of their shuttle planes that normally flew from LGA to DCA, every hour on the hour, to pick us up in MCO. These planes were designed to move the most people possible in the space that was available, since they were designed for a 45 minute flight, not 2½ hours. So we knew we were going to be crammed in.
We had to wait 3½ hours for them to get this plane to us, needless to say we got pretty friendly with each other in the airport and there were quite a few feeling not pain and it was starting to be a party atmosphere which was actually quite fun.
As we were getting on the plane we noticed quite a few balloons, attached to people of course, getting on the plane. As we were getting seated we started taking bets on how long it would be before the balloons started popping, even the flight crew was getting in on the fun. Sure enough once we were airborne all these balloons started popping and kids were crying and adults were complaining, but since half of us were drunk we really didn't care all that much.
As we were approaching EWR the pilot gets on the intercom, tells us to fasten our seatbelts, we were approaching Newark, NJ and that the local temperature was 5 BELOW zero. :scared1: At that statement alot of the passengers, pretty much in unison, me included, yelled "TURN AROUND!!!!!!"
My wife and I still laugh about that trip even though it was more than 20 years ago.

Ok, I can't believe I am posting this. We went 09/26 of this year and stayed at ASMu. I didn't really do any research on the AS hotels. We went for the low AP rate. It had already been a horrible day. Had to spend $900 on new brakes, left for WDW 2 hours late, you name it, it had gone wrong.
Anyway, I am stressing about finding the hotel. I didn't realize all three were together, so when all I saw on the signs was All-Star Resort, I kept telling DH I hope I am going to the right one (we had MNSSHP tickets for the evening and I wanted to get there.) DH was busy listening to his book on his Ipod. He finally gets mad at me for disturbing him. So, now the tension in the truck is so thick you can cut it with a knife. We find the hotel and I check in. No problem there. We were to be in building 8. So we drive around and find building 8. It says Fantasia and I know the lady said Broadway. But we get out and search for our room. We were room 4527, but all of these rooms were 4700-4800. Asked a CM, who was no help.
I call the front desk and get put on hold. Another CM comes on and puts me on hold. As I am holding I look around and finally it hits me. Fantasia is a movie. Wait, there is Herbie, a movie. "Oh man, we are at ASMovies!" So we get back in the truck and look for the correct building. DH keeps saying that I checked in at the wrong hotel but I explain they all have the star in the front, but I checked in at the correct one. So, we finally found it. I keep saying I can't believe I did that and DS says this, "Oh don't worry about it, I'm sure a lot of people have done it!"

So this didn't happen to me, but to my dad. We were at the main pool at OKW not long after they added the slide. My dad is, well, not a light weight guy, I guess you can call him pooh sized. So he is going down the slide but the water pressure was not enough to move him, he gets stuck in the first turn. He is trying to push himself down the slide, but this is taking a while. We are waiting at the bottom for my dad to come down, for a long time. I guess the lady at the top figured that the sensors for the red light--green light thing weren't working so she just goes down. She runs into my dad and they both come out together, this lady has her legs and arms wrapped around my dad. I don't know who was more embarrassed, her or him, they just detached and went their seperate ways. But it sure was funny for those of us watching at the bottom.

I just finished reading this thread and I'm laughing all the way til end. :rotfl2: We have an experienced but not on my part, I remember one of my friend which is extra big, he got stuck on RocknRollercoaster. We try leaving him just to make fun of it, then he shouted us help, help, help, pull me here. :lmao: Then we all laugh at him. He said that he will go on diet so in our next trip, he won't experienced that again. Everytime we remember that day we still laughing at him. :rotfl:
Have a nice day everyone. :)

Ok...Another one.
We're in line for the Pirates of the Carribean. DW, DD(3) and Me...the victim. The line is longish, about 20 minutes of wait time. As we're standing there, the unmistakable waft of flatulence washes over the crowd. So for the next couple of minutes everyone is playing the "I wonder who farted game". This consists of cutting eyes at your linemates trying to figure out if that smell from the depths of hell could come out of that petite little flower of a lady 3 people down...You guys know the drill...
Well anyway, about 3 minutes into the game, my DD gets the scent....She curls up her face and looks at me and says (LOUDLY) "DADDY! YOU POOPED YOUR PANTS...AGAIN!"
Dammit! I didn't do it...But now I'm the center of everyone's attention...I was fully designated as the "Pirates of the Carribean Farter"...I got framed by my own!
I really wanted to reply "Not me honey, that one was Mom" but I would have faced certain maiming with that comment ;-)
All kids rat out their parents, just like parents embarrassing thier kids when they get older.....remember "paybacks"!!

Several years ago, we were near POC with DS8, DS12 and DH. DS8 has to climb on all the curbs, and this one tried to bite him (he fell off) and somehow wrenched a knee and his back. We made it to the nearby restaurant, got a bag of ice, and a CM was kind enough to find us a wheelchair. He quickly felt better and ran off with DH to ride something. I had been having major foot problems all day, so DS12 offered to push me in the wheelchair. I let him for a while, feeling fairly foolish, but it felt very good to not be on that foot (we all know that we can't judge someone in a wheelchair just because we don't see something wrong with them, right?). It was nearing time for the afternoon parade, and he had to run to the potty before that, so he parked me along the way and ran. A CM came up to me and said, "No, ma'am, we have a much better place for you!" and kindly pushed me to the wheelchair viewing area (and now I'm feeling even more foolish than I was before). I had my pin lanyard on, so that CM ran and got four more CMs with pins all to offer to trade... Now, remember, there really was not much wrong with me, but here i am, in this wheelchair, being completely fussed over... Boy, I felt really stupid, taking up time and energy that could have been used helping people who really needed help! and of course, half an hour later, I realized why my foot hurt so much -- never wear new Dr. Scholl's inserts and walk for 6 hours right away. So since I didn't hurt so much, and now family had all gone somewhere else, I was stuck PUSHING my own wheelchair so I could return it...Should I ever REALLY need a wheelchair, I'll remember all the kindness I received when I DIDN'T really need it!
Thanks for all the great stories! I'm really hoping some other member of my family does something stupid when we go in 2 months so I pass it along!

That is the total truth. I remember when we needed one for my Dad, but he felt so self conscious about it. At the time my Dad was 71 with bad hips and congestive heart failure, and too much pride. After a while in EPCOT he wanted to push me because I was pushing him all day and he wanted to walk a bit. I could just feel everyone staring at me while my Dad hobbled along pushing me. Granted, I had to switch back as we hit the hill from UK to France, but I understood why my dad felt so very self-concious. I just kept dreading that someone would come along and offer to help my Dad push me. so glad that did not happen.

On our last trip down there my teenage DD was not with us, so I had my two younger ones and a friend of my DD. Well, I had never been on KRR at Ak before because I hate to get wet. This trip, I could not send the little ones in alone, so I had to go. I love this type of ride, I just hate getting wet.Anyway, we get on and we are going and there is a splash here and there, no big deal. All of a sudden I could see it coming and I slipped and said "OH S$$T!!" I was so embarrassed. I'am not sure how loud it was and I hope no one heard me, but I was embarrassed to say that at Disney. I got soaked too!!:rolleyes:

:rotfl2: you definitely weren't the first nor will you be the last. Last year my wife had a light pink shirt on, well it might as well have been white, because a wall of water slammed into us and all you could see was her bra through it after we got off.:blush: She had to wring it out in the bathroom by the fountain as you get off.

These stories are sooooooo funny!
My first embarassing story was when my Dad accidently asked to order a "Chicken Condom" instead of a Chicken Combo whilst ordering a meal on our WDW vacation :rotfl2: . I was 12 and I burst out laughing and said "I don't think they make Chicken flavored ones." My Mum was horrified first at my Dad then moreso at me because we are really devout catholics and she thought I was pretty innocent at the time and that the comment would have gone over my head :blush: . Oops.
On our 2008 trip we were at Aquatica so not WDW that day. My Mum LOVES the Lazy River and is very nervous about anything fast or anything that a toddler couldn't go on basically. Anyway, Aquatica had just opened that week so we didn't know the layout. I took Mum to what I thought was the Lazy River, thinking it was a bit strange that we had to wear life vests instead of using a tube/dingy. Mum kept saying it looked fast and I was saying no its fine. So we get in....... and its the RAPIDS :scared1:
Straight away, I get swept away and it is kind of fast and the current is strong. I got separated from my Mum and I can just hear her SCREAMING, "Oh, Natalie HELP me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help, Jesus, Help!!!!!!!!!!" really loud. I turn around to try to get to her and see her clinging on to the side getting tossed about, water flying over her head. I try to swim to her, I'm going "MUM!!!!!! I can't get to you!!!!!!!" and she's going, "NATALIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! You should never have brought me on this. You should have known. How could you be so stupid?!!!!!" EVERYONE is looking at us :blush: . Then the lifeguard said, "Does she need help?" I said "Yeah, she thought it was the Lazy River :confused3 !" So he blows his whistle and jumps in, meanwhile, they turn the jets off and stop the rapids so it does actually become a Lazy River :rotfl: ironic, huh? I disappear round the corner as, I had to go round again, as he is rescuing my Mum, pulling her out the water to safety!!!!!!!!!!
So there I am, floating away and these teenagers are floating by me. One of them says, "Dude, why is this going so slow, it looked like it was faster before." So they asked the nearest lifeguard to make it go faster. The lifeguard replies, "Sorry, we had an emergency and had to turn it off. It should be back on in an HOUR or TWO :eek: " So EVERYONE starts to complain. Then this girl swims up and says, "Yeah, this lady got in and started having a heart attack because she was scared." Then everyone starts saying what kind of a stupid person gets into a rapids and then chickens out. Girl says, "Well, actually, her daughter told her it was the lazy river." :blush: At which point, I decide to swim by, unnoticed. Then I hear, "Dude, that's her daughter. That's the one that got the ride stopped for the next two hours!" How embarassed can you be? Especially when, as the water was slowed down, it took 20 minutes until I was able to get back to the exit!!!!!" Well, not as embarassed as my Mum. Apparently, the lifeguard was really struggling to get her out the water whilst everyone was watching (she was a little overweight at the time) and then when she was explaining what happened to my Dad............ her false teeth shot out of her mouth!!!!!!!!!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: What a family we are!!!::yes:: ::yes:: ::yes::

On our first trip, we were getting ready to get on the Jungle Cruise and before going on, there was CM there at the beginning of the line. He wasn't moving and so we all started debating whether or not he was "real" or a prop. We decided he was a prop. He honestly didn't even blink. I swear.
Well my dad decided to test out the theory and he reached right up to the CM (who still did NOT move) and grabbed his nose. The CM still did not move. We all were like, "yeah, see he's fake. I knew it!" About 2 minutes later, he moved. OMG, we died laughing. It was the funniest thing ever! My dad could not quit laughing and so the rest of us couldn't either. We wound up cracking up the entire cruise. That got kind of embarassing b/c I felt bad for the people on our boat b/c we totally interrupted their cruise. We just could. not. quit. laughing.
So if you were on the Jungle Cruise in 1998 with a family that was acting like jerks, it was us. My sincerest apologies.

OK...you have to see it from my eyes. My DH, DS and nephew are riding a very crowded bus home to OKW from MK at 2 am. Now, my DS was about 11 at the time...and he thought....like most little boys that age...that public flagulence was.....hilarious :confused3
Well, he must have let out a silent attack that night....
Keep in mind....it is 2 am...and very dark.....so I cannot see them well....but it is what I hear that is so hysterical and....embarassing.....
DH...."Oh holy hell, what is that?"
DH looks at my 16 nephew...he has his t-shirt pulled up over his nose...as a makeshift gas-mask
Our Nephew points to DS who is acting innocent and ignoring them.
DH "Man, my eyes are watering!" Something must have crawled up him and died!" :headache:
DH...gaging...says to our nephew..."Why didn't you warn me?"
Nephew replies...."Dude, every man for himself."
Dude, I just peed my pants!

Dam Typhoon Lagoon can get the best of us ..I swear..
So a few years back Mom and I took a vacay just ourselves down to WDW
and it was so hot we decided to go to Typhoon Lagoon. ( My Fave!) Anyways I love the wave pool and my mom does okay it in. But I talked her into moving deeper into the water so that she could feel the massive wave hit her. So were swimming in and my mom says " I think I am good here," and I say "come farther it will be fun". I think I should mention that my mom is only about 5 feet tall. So we go farther and she is basically up to her neck deep. And we looking around and you know that siren is gonna go off anytime. I swan a little farther but she was in eyesight.There were a few men around us and I just happen to notice them I am not sure why but One man had a leather Harley Davidson cap on and I thought that was odd in a big wave pool but anyways...So the siren goes off and you know this wave is gonna hit any minute and everyone is laughing and carrying on and SMACK the wave hits me and I lose sight of everything, I come up to the surface and I am laughing so hard and Look around for my mom and can't see her anywhere I am a little panic at this point so I yell Mom , Mom, and about 4 feet from me I see a tussel going on with one of the men but I can't really make it out so I swim closer and there is my mom caught between this guys legs coming up for air now wearing this gentlemans harley leather hat.....She was so embarassed I bust out laughing
and went over ...I was like how the heck did you get underneath that man........ so funny I will never forget that ...

Ok, this is not disney related, but I feel that if there was ever a time to dig up this repressed memory, this is it...
I was young, probably 6 or 7, and my family took a trip to our small, local zoo. Being a small zoo, there is really only one path you can take, so you end up walking the zoo with the same group of strangers from start to finish. One of the first couple cages has the monkeys. So we're standing around, checking them out, and I notice one of them, ummm... "entertaining himself." However, being young, naive and clueless, I shout "Look mom, that one's got a worm!"
Now my mom, being the semi-proper woman that she is, tries to quietly pull me away with little "yes dears" and "uh-huhs", but I won't let it go, and keep yelling, "No, look at that one! Do you see it! He caught a...hey, that's not a ...oh. Why is he doing that?"
Now, my mom tried to just rush ahead to the next animal, but the people who were within earshot kept catching up to us. Every single time, they would smirk and laugh when they saw me. I think I was beet-red the entire time. I get reminded of this every time I go back to a zoo with them. Or see a monkey on TV. Or someone makes reference to "monkeying around". Really any day ending in "y."

On my 40th birthday, January 2009, in the parking lot of Magic Kingdom, I took a nose dive. I tripped across the a parking median and fell in front of a tram full of people. Two weeks later, I'm still nursing the bruises, bumps and scraps that I managed to give myself. I can laugh now but it was not funny then. :lmao: At the mire thought of the incident, my husband goes into a laughing fit with tears and all.:rotfl2:

I was young, probably 6 or 7, and my family took a trip to our small, local zoo. Being a small zoo, there is really only one path you can take, so you end up walking the zoo with the same group of strangers from start to finish. One of the first couple cages has the monkeys. So we're standing around, checking them out, and I notice one of them, ummm... "entertaining himself." However, being young, naive and clueless, I shout "Look mom, that one's got a worm!"
Now my mom, being the semi-proper woman that she is, tries to quietly pull me away with little "yes dears" and "uh-huhs", but I won't let it go, and keep yelling, "No, look at that one! Do you see it! He caught a...hey, that's not a ...oh. Why is he doing that?"
Now, my mom tried to just rush ahead to the next animal, but the people who were within earshot kept catching up to us. Every single time, they would smirk and laugh when they saw me. I think I was beet-red the entire time. I get reminded of this every time I go back to a zoo with them. Or see a monkey on TV. Or someone makes reference to "monkeying around". Really any day ending in "y."
MOnkey worms---oh my ---so, so funny! Did you figure things out before the end of your zoo trip that day?

I've been laughing my butt off at everyone else's stories, so I thought I'd better share mine. It's much tamer, but was still pretty embarassing!
My husband and I had season passes a few years ago and went to WDW constantly. We had walked into a shop on Main Street and were browsing side-by-side. I saw something I must have really liked,(don't remember what... humiliation induced amnesia!), grabbed hubby's arm and said," Oooh, honey! Isn't that cute?!?" ... And the charming British gent I had just manhandled replied, "It's lovely, darling." :eek: Now I look before I grab!!

This wasn't at Disney but it was a Halloween pumpkin farm. My wife walked up to "me" and being the touchy feely couple we are with each other, she proceeded to rub my behind. Surprise! It wasn't me! Boy was she embarrassed.:rotfl:

This isn't my story but my sisters (I was there though). It was in the early '90's (I was like 6 or 7), and during the entire trip my big sis was being a complete turd to everyone. So we were going to MGM, and back then they had some "Reven of the Nerd" type nerd streetmosphere characters at the entrance. Well, my dad, the goofball that he is, pulls one over and asks him to yell to my sis using her nickname. Now, that may not have been that bad, had her nickname not been the apt "booger bear". I remember laughing my behind off....the look on her face was soooo priceless.

I have a Typhoon Lagoon story as well. It was awhile back, I was 15 years old, and I try not to think about it too much. Every Disney trip my family goes to Typhoon Lagoon (we love it there). Well, I'm not the best swimmer in the world (I still have to plug my nose when I go under water) and I prefer the little waves over the BIG wave, but every trip I put on a brave face for at least acouple of the BIG waves. So, my sister and I go into the wave pool for our first BIG wave, and I, of course am wearing a cheap two piece swimsuite, that I had my sister tie that morning. She must not have tied it very well because the first BIG wave comes, and it tosses and turns us all over the place, and the first thing I hear and see when my head comes out of the water is my sister pointing and laughing at me!! I look down and the BIG wave had snapped my top of my neck and it was laying on top of the water next to me!! I had never been so embarrassed!!! Now I just laugh, cause it was pretty funny, but then I was sooo mortified I didn't go back in the wave pool for the rest of the day!

Good thing these both the wives... If some strange man came up and started rubbing my behind I would be pretty disturbed. Somehow I don't think the "oops, I thought you were my spouse" line would be quite as effective. :rotfl:
My DH almost made the mistake with my sister one year at Christmas. We were wearing the same color shirt and have similar hair. He walked up behind her and had his arm just about to grab her around the waist when he realized. :upsidedow The worst part was my sister is extremely shy and was embarassed that we were all laughing. She then walked in on him in the bathroom a few hours later (my parent's bathroom doesn't lock) and was completely mortified.

OK, I'll share a couple stories to keep the thread going ... These are both from when I was a teen back in the 80s ... ahhh to be young and dumb again ... :upsidedow
Our high school band did a trip to WDW when I was 15 and we also played a concert somewhere in Orlando proper, maybe Old Town? We left the hotel in uniform and planned to change into street clothes for the rest of the evening. After performing, we went back to the buses to change, at which point I realized I hadn't grabbed a shirt from the motel! I had to wear a friend's jacket, buttoned all the way up, the rest of the night!
Related: A month or so later many of us from the WDW trip were playing another concert, at Knott's Berry Farm in CA. A group of friends and I went on some little ride that was similar to Winnie the Pooh, but with some really cheesy dinosaurs. We got bored in about 30 seconds and decided it would be more fun to sing the Figment song from the old "Journey into Imagination" ride at EPCOT. The ride attendant glared at us when we got off, but she didn't have a clue what/why we were singing.
If you remember the Imagination song, you'll now spend the rest of the night getting it out of your head, just like me!:rolleyes:

This happened a long time ago, in the 70's, when River County was open. My wife does not swim, but there was a flume ride in River Country that was somewhat calm and she agreed to do it.
Well, about half way down she lost the top of her two piece, (they had two piece bathing suites back then too) and did not realize it until she was getting out of the pool. She was horrified as River Country was pretty full that day.
She quickly turned around and found the top and put it on. Several guests saw most of the incident and were very amused and appreciative of the sight.
Latter that day DW was doing laundry and overhear others talking about the incident. She was still embarrassed and did not participate in the conversation. DW did not go to River Country any more on that trip.

Hello everyone, I'm new to these boards but I couldn't help reading and now posting a few embarrassing moments that have happened to me in WDW.
The first happened to my sister a few years ago, it was actually a series of events. My sister is probabley one of the clumbsiest people I have ever known. The entire trip she would would spill coffee down her shirt, or sit in mustard or anything that came close to her, so she basically walked around looking like a mess everyday of the trip. Then we were going into COuntry Bear Jamboree when she suddenly fell down the stairs and basically did a but slide all the way down to the first row, everyone was asking her if she was ok and she snapped sayin loudly "I'm trying to catch up to my group" she peered over at me with the most evil of eyes, I thought it was hysterical and I still tease her about it every chance I get.
My most embarrassing moment happened last year at Pop, I was strolling down the hall making my way back to my room and I remembered that I left the little hook or doorstop out on my door because I didn't have my room key, I walk joyfully and open the door only to find that the room wasn't mine and there was a woman in her bra and undies laying on the bed watching tv while her kids also barely dressed were running around the room. I stood in shock apologizing over and over, I was stunned and kind of froze, finally I ran back to my room, the correct one this time. I told my dad and his GF about what had happened and they had a great laugh. The nect morning I went for a stroll and seen my dads GF sitting on a bench I walked up to her and she said oh Steph I want to introduce you to someone, it was the woman from the room!! So once again I froze and turned red and started apologizing again. She was from England and said "you Americans are very friendly". A few days later I knocked on her door, once again making the mistake of thinking it was mine. It was more embarrassment than I could handle.:rolleyes:

last year at Pop, it was later in the evening, my mom was in the room and I decided I wanted to go back to the foodcourt. My friend and cousin were there waiting for me. I asked my Mom if I could use her electric scooter. ahahh. well..
I thought I was cool and put the thing on the highest speed level... I zoomed all the way to the food court... literally.... as I aproached the closed doors, I didnt realize the scooter needed a moment to slow down and there was a delay.. instead of coming to a complete stop I plowed right into the glass doors.. It made a loud noise and everyone who heard turned and looked at me as if I was an idiot. LOL It was so funny.. I was laughing and so were my friend and cousin!
I'll never do that again. slow is better. :lmao:

Mine isn't as terrible, thankfully, but family who didn't even go on our trip still laugh at me for this.
Disclaimer: I have really bad ankles & have been spraining my left ankle at least once a year for the last 15 years. So when people here I fall, they assume it's that, but aren't surprised to hear that I've fallen. :guilty:
We had just had dinner at the Whispering Canyon Cafe and went back to MK for the evening. My husband took the monorail back to the TTC parking lot to get our sweatshirts out of the car & our son's Stitch Light Up thingy. My son (barely 3) and I walked up to the Pinocchio meet & greet area in MK (at the front of the park) and I did my very first ever pin exchange with a girl from Germany. I was nervous for some reason since I hadn't done it before. I chatted with her for a few minutes as we went through the line. We got up to Pinocchio and I gave the Photopass person my camera and our PP Card. I took a pic with my son & Pinocchio and then backed out of the picture to get a few of him alone with Pinocchio. As I backed up, I ran into the curb that was set up to create a flowerbed. I couldn't keep my balance and I ended up going down and landing on my back/tailbone. I have a massive amount of hair & it was up, so it created a nice cushion for my head. ;) I let out a yell and could tell I did something to my ankle, but I tried to get back up quickly and announced, "And I'm okay!" :rolleyes1 The crowd let out a sympathetic laugh and I went to get my son and leave the scene.
What's hilarious is that in the Photo Pass pictures, you can clearly see my son reacting to my fall. There were about 5-6 pictures of him turning his head to look. If you were to make a flipbook, it would look like animation! The CM that I traded pins with chased me down to make sure I was okay. My ankle hurt, I had scraped up my elbow, and my back was already killing me, but what hurt most was my pride. I was trying not to cry, but it didn't work. So there I am trying to convince her that I was okay while I was blubbering. :headache::sad1:
I ached for the rest of the night, but didn't feel the brunt of it until the next morning. My husband & son went on to AK without me so that I could take my time & limp my way there. The shower at the AS Sports was awesome on my back!
I don't know why, but I told my cousin about it over the phone. She laughed at me and said, "Only you could get hurt at Disney!" (Boy is she wrong, she should read this thread! :lmao:) She then proceeded to call our grandmother & my sister-in-law to tell the tale about my fall. Family!! :confused3

besides laughing hysterically at my DW when she got pooped on by a pigeon outside mama melrose's, nothing embarassing to me personally. but one year we went, we were in tomorrowland, and waiting in line for Astro Orbiter. We watched this kid (must have been about 6 or 7 yo) running under the que line chains near the TTA entrance. Well, needless to say, his parents weren't watching and he got careless and ran full steam into the chain- which ultimately closelined him at neck level. The kid ultimately was ok, but that was a big "DOH" here's your sign!

One of my friends and her BF and her DD's from home was in Disney at the same time as we were one year. We met up for dinner and then went around MK for the evening. It had been pouring rain for days and it had finally stopped so we were happy to be walking around without gettin soaked for once. I had on my crocs....you can see where this is going...so I was trying to be very careful not to slip and fall;) The kids wanted to go on IASW so we grudgingly(sorry) walked over there. All of our kids were in front of us, then me and DH and behind was my friend and her BF. Me and DH were walking arm in arm and out of nowhere in the queue of IASW I fell square on my knee and fell over immediately!!:confused3 I had never felt pain like that before...EVER! My DD's got scared and were crying and my DH was freaking out because of the way I reacted...I'm usually pretty calm and have a high pain tolerance. All I wanted to do was lay there for a second and get my wits about me but ofcourse the CM's came over and everyone in line was crowding around me...UGHHHH! I finally said to the CM please just let me sit here a second!! After my hubby realized I was gonna be ok, he whispered in my ear"What hurts more, your knee or your pride?" Oh he's a funny one!! I could've dealt with it if we were alone because it's not like we would see anyone again but there was my friend and her BF behind me to see the whole thing:scared:I really thought I was going to be done for the trip that's how bad it hurt but with ice and advil I was good to go the next morning!! Left one heck of bruise though;) Then to top it off I still had to go on IASW:laughing:

We leave on July 4th. We really have this trip planned for tons of fun. We are going to stay at the Swan, for the first two nights. Then, check-in at the Poly for the remaining 7 nights. We're really looking forward to the Cirque du Soliel show, since we've never seen it. Plus, Dh made reservations at Victoria and Albert's, for the two of us.
After we check-out at the Poly, we're heading to KSC- ds9 is all set for space camp, that week :goodvibes
We are looking forward to returning to our happy place, alone :cloud9:
I'll be there on July 4th too with my DH for our 1yr anniversary. Have a wonderful time...it sounds like you REALLY deserve it.:thumbsup2

I was 15 and my sister was 12 when we took a trip to WDW with our parents and grandparents. We are in Adv Land and by now my grandparents are getting tiered and can’t walk too fast. My parents send my sister and I up to the front of the park to Guest Serv to get a wheel chair. We figure that we can “recharge” our grandparents by letting one walk and one ride then change places every so often. We get the wheel chair and head back down Main Street USA (very crowded, no surprise). I tell my sister to sit in the wheel chair and I would push her. No way is she doing that!! So I sit in the chair and she is pushing me along Main Street when she decided to cross over the tracks in the road. She is pushing the wheel chair at such a small angel (to the tracks) that the front wheels of the chair get caught in the tracks. Me and the wheel chair end up face down in the middle of Main Street. She is laughing so hard she can’t talk and I am laughing a little, but I stop when I feel 3-4 men pick me up and others picking up the wheel chair. To them, this poor disabled boy just bit the dust. I was too afraid to stand up and get in the chair by myself. I didn’t want anyone to think I was making light of disabled people. The mean stares people where giving my sister for laughing at the misfortune of the poor disabled boy. I’m sure only so few hindered people saw that.

Last Nov we went and it was the first time my wife had to use an ECV.
Well we stoped to eat at the CS right next to the HISTK playground (can't think of the name off hand). Well The wife asked me to get the ECV from out of the seating area and onto the main throughway between the CS and the backlot tour. My youngest DD distracted me briefly and next thing I know, I have the ECV stuck in the middle of the stairs...

This was many years ago at MK. We were with my niece who was about 9. It was August (blazing hot) and she was miserable pretty much the whole time. Still have the pictures of her on line (outside in the heat) waiting to go in rides with a look on her face that would be scarier than anything in Haunted Mansion. Well, the boys (about 7) and the rest of us were having a great time so it was no surprise that everything and anything that went awry was happening to her. But the funny part is:rolleyes1 we are leaving MK on our last night walking down mainstreet (she still has the look :eek: on her face) and we hear an actual thud. When I turn around she is swinging her arms wildly and screaming at the top of her lungs. She is ALL over Main Street. We finally calm her down and find out one of those HUGE FLYING palmetto bugs had slammed into her forehead!:scared: She thought it was caught in her hair. The thud we heard was when it hit her, THAT is how big this sucker was.
Needless to say all eyes were on us and I just kept thinking what a way to exit the Magic Kingdom!
It's 20 years later and when she puts that look of misery on I can only think of that trip. But she (and the rest of us) look back and LAUGH!

:rolleyes: I started reading this thread on the first page.....on page (not lying)22.....I think I wonder how many pages there are to this thread.....didn't check the dates....geez.
I have a funny thing that happened just the other day when I called to order my MNSSHP tickets. The CM answers the phone and I purchase 4 for 10/31. When I wanted to purchase 2 tickets for 10/29 she said it wans't on her screen. Now being a diehard fan I had checked my site several times and told her so....she just apologized and I only got the 4 for 10/31. Now of course this was after a 30 min hold on the phone.
So I went back to the Disney site and the 29th was still an option....so I called back.....guess who answered the phone after 25 minute wait(wasn't going to give up).....same CM.....I stumbled around and then had to admit I had just called bought tickets from her....She asked " are you checking up on me?'...."no"....I said. THen I said, "I just wanted to make sure that nothing had changed in 20 minutes"...she was nice about it but I was embarassed big time.
But that is nothing compared to the trip in 2007. WE live 130 miles from the New Orleasn Airport. We get up to the gate, check in, show our driver's license.... you guessed it , I was expired.....horrified.....DH angry but handling it well. No other form of ID on me--had cleaned out and brought "a little purse" for the trip. I had to call my Father to bring my Passport from home---my parents live 130 miles from New Orleans, too. We made a later flight. We still laugh at my MIL standing by the security check point waving "bye" as she went to the gate. Nothing was spoiling her trip.
My Daddy is a wonderful man...Gave him my gas card and told him to fill up his truck on the way home. Now we sit in the car in the driveway and physically go over all driver's licences for expiration dates.:thumbsup2

In December, my family was in line at Great Movie ride. We were outside the big entrance room, where they films are shown. There was a couple with a toddler. The mom was holding the toddler who had his head on his moms shoulder (so he was facing us and they weren't).
I pulled out my mega-pack of tic tacs, and offered them to the kids. This toddler whacked the tic tacs outta my hand! Dozens of tic tacs went flying everywhere! :lmao: The mother turned around, looked at me and the mess she thought I made! We were so shocked this kid did this we didn't know what to say! I had a feeling she wouldn't have believed me if I told her that her son whacked them out of my hands - And the kid had no reaction to what he did either, kind of like it was just something to do..:confused3
OMG! :rotfl: This sounds like something my 16 mo would do. Although, I wouldn't think it as funny if it were my kid that did it. :)

Last year waiting for the bus at pop a little hand grabbed mine and was holding it, at first it didnt register with me because my nephue usually does that at random times (he was not there, i'm a little slow sometimes) and my DD who is 10 is way to cool to hold dads hand. The it hit me I have no idea who's child this is and they will think im stealing him or something, DW thought it was cute for a split second until she had the same thought i did. Dw wife kept saying let go and i tried he wouldn't he had a good grip, it seemed to go on forever like a bad sitcom. It turns out he was a little boy about 3 who was tired and in front on the group of people and thought i was his dad, i told the parents and handed him off to the real father and we just laughed about it.

My first embarassing story was when my Dad accidently asked to order a "Chicken Condom" instead of a Chicken Combo whilst ordering a meal on our WDW vacation :rotfl2: . I was 12 and I burst out laughing and said "I don't think they make Chicken flavored ones." My Mum was horrified first at my Dad then moreso at me because we are really devout catholics and she thought I was pretty innocent at the time and that the comment would have gone over my head
On our 2008 trip we were at Aquatica so not WDW that day. My Mum LOVES the Lazy River and is very nervous about anything fast or anything that a toddler couldn't go on basically. Anyway, Aquatica had just opened that week so we didn't know the layout. I took Mum to what I thought was the Lazy River, thinking it was a bit strange that we had to wear life vests instead of using a tube/dingy. Mum kept saying it looked fast and I was saying no its fine. So we get in....... and its the RAPIDS :scared1:
Straight away, I get swept away and it is kind of fast and the current is strong. I got separated from my Mum and I can just hear her SCREAMING, "Oh, Natalie HELP me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help, Jesus, Help!!!!!!!!!!" really loud. I turn around to try to get to her and see her clinging on to the side getting tossed about, water flying over her head. I try to swim to her, I'm going "MUM!!!!!! I can't get to you!!!!!!!" and she's going, "NATALIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! You should never have brought me on this. You should have known. How could you be so stupid?!!!!!" EVERYONE is looking at us :blush: . Then the lifeguard said, "Does she need help?" I said "Yeah, she thought it was the Lazy River :confused3 !" So he blows his whistle and jumps in, meanwhile, they turn the jets off and stop the rapids so it does actually become a Lazy River :rotfl: ironic, huh? I disappear round the corner as, I had to go round again, as he is rescuing my Mum, pulling her out the water to safety!!!!!!!!!!
So there I am, floating away and these teenagers are floating by me. One of them says, "Dude, why is this going so slow, it looked like it was faster before." So they asked the nearest lifeguard to make it go faster. The lifeguard replies, "Sorry, we had an emergency and had to turn it off. It should be back on in an HOUR or TWO :eek: " So EVERYONE starts to complain. Then this girl swims up and says, "Yeah, this lady got in and started having a heart attack because she was scared." Then everyone starts saying what kind of a stupid person gets into a rapids and then chickens out. Girl says, "Well, actually, her daughter told her it was the lazy river." :blush: At which point, I decide to swim by, unnoticed. Then I hear, "Dude, that's her daughter. That's the one that got the ride stopped for the next two hours!" How embarassed can you be? Especially when, as the water was slowed down, it took 20 minutes until I was able to get back to the exit!!!!!" Well, not as embarassed as my Mum. Apparently, the lifeguard was really struggling to get her out the water whilst everyone was watching (she was a little overweight at the time) and then when she was explaining what happened to my Dad............ her false teeth shot out of her mouth!
OMG... I love this thread. And I LOVE your family! Totally Hilarious! and Mortifying! :rotfl:

Let’s talk about our most embarrassing moments at WDW. Having been to WDW many times we were excitedly anticipating riding soarin’ again when we arrived at EPCOT. We were in the stand-by line watching the people exiting the ride in the corridor below us. Suddenly the fragrance of oranges wafted up to our eager noses (smelling the oranges as one floats over the orange groves is my favorite part of the ride). Bright eyed, I excitedly declared to those in line around me, “Oh my gosh! I can smell the oranges from the orange groves on the people leaving! Smell! You can smell the oranges! Smell it? Smell it?” Nobody seemed particularly enthralled. I turned around to face the front of the line when I caught the scent even stronger. Beside me and a little behind me were two children peeling and sharing an orange. I had been yelling about smelling oranges from the ride and everyone else could see that an actual orange was present. I felt like crawling into a hole.:rolleyes1

I took my sons ages 5 and 13 months for their first WDW trip. I invited my Mother to come along since she is a huge Disney fan. Well...I can't begin to tell you how excited we were our first day. We went to Animal Kingdom and my Mom was even dressed in this cute jumper skirt with animal prints. We were in the Disney spirit. Well...we did a child swap for Dinosaur and came out the exit towards the other rides in Dinoland. Well there was this cool dinosaur behind the gift shop and my five year old started climbing up it. Mom was so worried that he was going to fall she went to watch him and tripped backwards over the tail, fell, and landed legs up in the air. It was so scary, but she started laughing hysterically. So then my five year old and even my 13 months old were laughing, too. Luckily she wasn't too hurt...she had some big bruises (mostly her ego of course) and no one was around to witness.
The worst part is that I was pushing the stroller and videotaping as we were walking and got the whole thing on tape.
This back in 2001 and we all still laugh hysterically when we watch it, even Mom. It has become one of our favorite Disney memories and everyone tells us we should put it on Americas Funniest Home Videos because it is so funny.

Last January, just my middle DS and I went to the World. We were at AK and decided to eat lunch at Flame Tree BBQ. Well, I didn't think it through in the slightest and pushed his stroller up to the order and pick up area. Um, so how am I supposed to push the stroller out of the small space AND carry a trayful of food? NOT GRACEFULLY, that is for sure! My enormous lemonade (no lids at AK, remember) ended up falling over, soaking all our food and splashing a man next to me. I still feel so awful about it.
Anyway, two very nice employees replaced my food and helped me to a table but everyone in line was staring at me. So embarrassed.
Next time, I am packing my common sense!

Wanted to add ... OP, that Soarin' story made me giggle! Nothing wrong with enthusiasm! LOL!
