Funniest comments you've overheard in WDW

[DazlinJasmine]

I remember once on mine and my twin sisters birthday we were in Magic Kindom and a horse had just pooped! We were just going to get on the carriage and my Dad said to us ...... 'look, the horses have left you a birthday present!'
Me and my sister were grossed out. So disgusting.
Also my 1st post
yay

I would be whining if it was hot! I would want to go back to the hotel and go into the pool! :)

Funniest thing I heard in Disney last October:

"I'm gonna vote for George Bush because he's a guy I could drink a beer with!"


That's funny on so many levels!

[dopeyone]

we were sitting in the back of the tram, when after an announcement was made, my wife said, " that guy talks too fast, he sounds like the teacher in charlie brown"! little did she know that the guy making the announcements sits in the back of the tram, right behind us, he heard every word she said. so on his next announcement in his best charlie brown teacher voice he said "waa, waa, waa,wa, waa wa". my wife turned beet red when that happened, that was the funniest thing i've seen!

Pirates Of The Carribean attraction....

I heard someone say this back in 1989 and everytime I go on the ride I think about it.

You come up to the pirate ship and the captain is giving out his orders. One of the things he says is..."Fire at will"

And of course some guy in the back of the boat shouts...."Which ones Will?"

Guess you had to be there. I always say "which one is Will?" under my breath everytime we go by the ship now.

[DazlinJasmine]

Im just writing on this coz im bord
oh yea
this didnt happen in Florida but I have one, well just a joke,

This boy called Sam walked into school one and a his teacher said ...

Teacher: Sam, have you dont your homework?
Sam: No.
Teacher: Well, do it tonight then.

So that night when he go back from school he asked his Dad if he could help him with his homework.

Sam: Dad, can you help me with my homework?

Well because his Dad was washing the car he said

Dad: Get Lost.

So Sam wrote that down in his spelling book and went inside to his Mum, who was in the kitchin playing darts.

Sam: Mum, can you help me with my homework?
Mum: 180

So Same wrote that down in his spelling book. Next he went upstairs to his sister who listening to music in her bedroom so Sam asked .....

Sam: Sis, can you help me with my homework?
His Sister: La la la la la la!

So Sam wrote that down in his spelling book. Then he went downstairs to his Little Brother who is playing with his cars in the front room ......

Sam: Lil Bro can you help me with my homework?
His Brother: In my little brom brom car beep beep beep .....

So Sam went to school the next day and his teacher said ....

Sam: La la la la la la

I just got back from WDW and heard a few funny things.

The first involved a little British girl (probably about 5 years old or so) and is more "cute" than "funny", but made me laugh. DH and I were in Mouse Gear at Epcot where there is a display of small basketballs or something in the floor under glass. The little girl was standing on it and was being called over by her mother and she said, "But mummy, I'm standing on some balls!"

The second involved some confusion about the Buzz Lightyear ride. I *think* it stopped to let someone transfer from a wheelchair to the ride which made people think it was broken. So word that the ride is broken is sweeping through the queue, but most people quickly realize it is working, that it had just stopped temporarily, and order is restored. Then this woman starts yelling from out of nowhere, "What do you mean this ride is broken again!!" (It had been closed the day before.) "Doesn't this [bleep bleep] ride ever work!?" "To [bleep] with this!" and unhooks a chain, makes her kids get out of line and throws the chain on the ground (without hooking it back up). People are yelling after her that the ride IS working, but all we hear back is [bleep bleep bleep]. As soon as she was gone, the rest of us in line sort of looked at each other, shrugged, and started laughing.

[marypops!]

ooo
i guess that was one of my sisters who said that because they were six the 1st time we went
the thing in mouse gear i mean
EDIT!!! it couldn't of been mine actually because it you said it was from your last visit
our 1st visit was 2000
oh well
still sounds like something my sisters would say

[Tinker_]

Love this board... keep it up guys! I will have some good ones when I get back from WDW!

Several years ago we were playing putt-putt at Fantasia Gardens on the Fairways course (the one that is more like golf). My wife is getting ready to smack her ball when we hear someone yell INCOMING. About which time we see this colored ball go flying through the air towards our hole. Turns out the group behind us got a little too excited when hitting their ball and it kind of got away from him.

That is one thing I didn't ever think I would hear at Disney.

[LuvN~Travel]

Laughing at the Which one is Will post. My son loved it too.:)

The funniest thing I ever heard at MK definately came out of my OWN Mouth, unintentionally of course!!

A few weeks ago, we were finishing up a LONG day at MK with my DH, 2 kids, stepson and his wife, and their 5 month old baby.

Everyone else went on Splash Mountain at about 7 p.m. except me - I was left with my ds (2) and my step-grandson, 5 months. My son was being SO good, but the baby was really upset. My son probably sat there for 20 minutes playing with a small bag of trail mix. He was picking out the parts he likes, and putting the rest of the stuff (basically the nuts) in the little cup holders in the tray of his stroller. Then he'd move them from one place to the other, and back again. In the meantime, the baby REALLY started getting upset, and I'm trying to bounce him on my knee, and at the same time, my son decides he's had enough of this and he's getting out of the stroller NOW. So I'm saying "Please, Elliot, get back in the stroller. Come on Elliot, come on over here and sit, please. Come on, you can sit over here and play with your nuts"!!! Well, there was a young guy sitting next to me (with his infant child) who started to snicker (like you snicker in church when you know you shouldn't be snickering). I ALMOST DIED when I realized what I had said, QUITE LOUDLY, in front of too many people!!! I had to keep sitting there and wait another 15 minutes or so until they all came off the ride.... It was awful!

I am laughing SO hard at this right now.....thank you for sharing!!! :)

My stories are probably more cute than funny too.

In 2001, my dad and I were talking past the candy store on Sunset at MGM. A little girl (3-4?) in a Cindy costume was standing, fists clenched, outside the store screaming at her father... "CANDY! CANDY! I WANT CAAAAAAANDY!" Feet stomping, arm waving, full on candy tantrum. The dad, amazingly calm, simply says, "Lizzie. You're not being a princess. Do we have to go change into our regular clothes?" Tantrum ceases immediately, Lizzie smoothes out her Cindy dress, and looks serenely at her daddy saying, "No daddy, I'm a princess. I'd like to keep on my Cinderella dress. Please don't make me change into plain clothes."

On the same trip, I was walking with my mom @ MK near the entrance to ToonTown. We passed a frazzled looking dad bending down beside a stroller holding a wailing 2 yr old. Dad pleads, "Jeremy, please stop crying... Mommy will be right back." Jeremy responds with more screaming, crying, and "I want MOMMY!" Dad, at his wits end, looking around desperatly for something to capture Jeremy's attention sees Pooh emerge from the CM gate and walk toward ToonTown. Dad exclaims, "Oh look Jeremy... It's Pooh!" He says Pooh with a quiet sort of baby voice. Jeremy responds with, "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! ... pooh"

I was sitting with my DGD in her stroller while the rest of the family walked through Swiss FAmily Treehouse a few years ago...DGD was about 18 months old then and has a whole head of bright red curly hair like her Mom has.

A litte girl maybe 4 or 5 years old in a Cinderella outfit came and sat down with her mother in the same rest area we were in. She came over and politely asked if she could talk to the baby and i said sure...My DGD was just laughing and clappng as this little girl did her song and dance routine in that dress for her, she loved it. I did not pay much attention I was reading something at the time...

Anyway this little girl when she is done singing says to me, is her hair that color or do you dye it??.....I laughed so hard I almost cried, the idea of us dying this baby's hair red was too much... :sunny:

Her mother was so embarrassed but I thought it was very funny..... :sunny: :sunny:

Mine wasnt at the parks but it is Disney related... I went to go see Pooh's Heffalump movie the other day. It was around noon time so there were a few kids there not many... however this little girl sitting behind me said the funniest and maybe the cutest thing ive heard in a while. When Pooh falls off his bed and his head goes into the hunny pot

"Mommy mommy look poohs head is covered in mustard... (took a few seconds to think) why is pooh eating mustard?"

[Boo Mc]

We were at Epcot last week when I heard a man tell his wife "Hey, let's go to Interventions". At which point I looked at my DH and said "I guess that's where the dysfunctional families go when they visit Epcot".

For me, the funniest comments that I ever hear are usually crabby parents yelling at their kids. I think the reason I find them so funny is 1. They seem to forget that we are in the "Happiest Place on Earth" and 2. I will someday be that crabby parent with crabby kids! For now...I will just chuckle to myself whenever I hear crabby parents! :earboy2:

We visited in the early 80s when my sister was about 7. She was a little spooked by a couple of things, so my dad had been stressing the fact that many of the things that bothered her weren't real -- they were fake and pretend. Anyhow, fast forward to lunch. We're having pizza (I think at the Plaza Pavillion?) and it is *terrible*. My sister put her pizza down on the plate and said in such a sad voice "Daddy, I don't think this pizza is real, either."

[vandergriff4]

We were in MGM this past weekend and as we were leaving we overheard a woman tell her family that MGM was the Magic Kingdom.

[gshoemate]

A few weeks ago while walking down the street in Adventure land, there were alot of birds flying around looking for food. I overheard a a woman say "I wish Disney would do something about those birds". I'm not sure what she expected Disney to do about wild birds.

Last night while at Epcot there was a marching band that could be heard across the Lagoon. A woman said to her family "listen, they are playing carnival music"

[LegoMom3]

We were in MGM this past weekend and as we were leaving we overheard a woman tell her family that MGM was the Magic Kingdom.


Ugh!!...HOW can people be so badly misinformed?! There are just some things at Disney that are so basic, they should be required knowledge before you are allowed to enter the park! :earboy2:

I know. I just can't believe that number of people that come to Disney World and have no clue what it is.

[vandergriff4]

I just remembered another one. We went over to the Magic Kingdom after we left MGM. We were watching the first Spectromagic parade and there was a family that come and sat near us. I kept hearing the son ask when the "firecrackers" were going to start. :rotfl:

[Wish I lived in Fl]

My sister put her pizza down on the plate and said in such a sad voice "Daddy, I don't think this pizza is real, either."

That's funny!

Keep them coming.

As DH was driving to Universal the first day of a mixed Disney and Universal trip, i asked why he was driving towards Disney instead of Universal. He said,"What do you mean, Universal is not in Disney?" as if someone had tricked him.

[anewvance]

We were at MGM yesterday getting popcorn at the cart in front of Beauty and the Beast theater. A guy says there is the elevator, a 35 minute wait for the elevator, do you want to go on the elevator? I just wanted to yell TOWER OF TERROR at him!

Haha, my mom has always called Test Track by the wrong name... "Fast Track." Does it every time. I also hear "Rock and Roll Rollercoaster" a lot. Oh, "Mission Mars" for Mission Space. Also, people are getting confused with the word "space" in so many rides, Space Mountain, Spaceship Earth, Mission Space. Then, people always want to know where to line up for the "Fantastic" show. I mean... there are lots of fantastic shows! :rotfl:

My grandparents do that! They call fast pass and test track by that, so you're never REALLY sure which they're talking about....Too funny!

[BroganMc]

A couple years ago when my folks and I started going to Disney annually, we were walking through Main Street in Magic Kingdom on a busyish day. The sun was shining, music chimed, weather was nice (warm but not hot) and it was an otherwise perfect day as we approached the castle.

Sure enough some kid was wailing about something ahead of us. My mom didn't think just blurted out in true League of Their Own fashion, "There's no crying in Disney World."

We still say it whenever we travel but substitute the location. Point being, if your miserable in Disney you're doing something wrong.

i was guilty of this for several months, which is embarrassing, *** i was working at epcot at the time! :blush: my head would just mix up fastpass and test track. i eventually got it right. please don't hate me. :teeth:

[becobscot]

This wasn't at the parks but on the Wonder. We were waiting to get pictures with Mickey and Minnie. A CM was going down the line informing people that this line was just for pictures not autographs and then she said,"Enjoy your stay in line." I had to asked my DH if she had really said that! :rotfl:

[frannn]

The first time we took DDs to WDW, we stayed at the AS Movies. We were outside by the large letters that spell out ALL STAR MOVIES, and DH was taking pictures. DD11, who was about 7 at the time, was posing. She screams out, "wait, I want to sit in the "A" hole", at which time we all turned red and burst out laughing. DD just looked around and said "what?" (until she realized and laughed herself). Now, every time we go to WDW, we have to take a picture by the "A" hole. Ha, she will never live that down in this family!

This was our second time bringing DD2 to WDW, and we were eating bkfast at CRT. As usual, DD2 was more interested in eating then what was going on around her. Mary Poppins had just walked up to sign autographs and take pictures, but to our dismay, DD2 had one of those HUGE, loooooonnng pieces of bacon hanging out of her mouth. (We usually cut everything up for her, but she had grabbed the bacon, and was doing a great job of holding on to it). Mary Poppins said in her accent, "oooohhh how lovely", and patiently waited till I had dislodged the bacon from DD's mouth to take a picture. When Ms. Poppins finally finished with our table, she walked away, saying to DD2, "bye bye princess....take smaller bites!"

I had finally convinced DH to go to the Club Car restaraunt off property. I had purchased a gift cert from Restaurant.com, and intended to use it. I called Club Car for directions, but the hostess was very vague and said she wasn't even sure of what she was telling me. So.....we set out on our way, and are driving according to what I wrote down, but we are now driving for almost an hour. I am quite surprised, as the hostess said they are very close to WDW. I call them back on our cell phone, and go back in the direction we are told by someone else. By then, we are starving and over an hour has passed. We continue following the new directions, and find ourselves driving right back near the WDW gate! The restaurant was about 10 minutes away, opposite the way I told DH to drive. Needless to say, there was a lot of "Do'h!" going on, and apologizing (on my part).

That's all I got.
Oooooh oooh- forgot my worldly DD11 squashing the love bugs "in action" every time she could. She kept saying, "eeewwww, that's disgusting" and squashing them.

[sixbitslocum]

Ok, I've got a couple...

When my youngest DD was about 4, we visited MK. Both of my daughters love The Little Mermaid, so we had told them about Ariel's Grotto. Well, Grotto isn't a word that is in most 4 year old vocabularies, so we were quite embarrased when we were standing in a crowded line and my daughter blurted out "When are we going to see Ariels crotch?"

On another trip, we met friends for dinner at the Liberty Tree Tavern. The adults were at one table, and the kids were at another. Throughout dinner, all the characters except Goofy had stopped by the kids table. On the second trip around, the same daughter kept trying to get Chip's attention. When Chip finally came over to the table, she calls him to her and says "Hey, go get Goofy".

[Grasshoppa]

A few weeks ago while walking down the street in Adventure land, there were alot of birds flying around looking for food. I overheard a a woman say "I wish Disney would do something about those birds". I'm not sure what she expected Disney to do about wild birds.

Actually, in Future World at Epcot they play a recording of a bird in distress to warn away other birds. They were having problems with the birds trying to nest on and around the buildings and it was causing some problems.

Most people don't even know its playing unless they really listen for it. I always wondered why they didn't do this in the other parks as well.

I hope this is as funny in print as it was in person....I have two stories to tell the 1st is cute and the 2nd one is....well...sad. It makes you wonder about some folks.

1. We were watching Fantasmic and it was the part where the wicked witch from snow white appears and the little girl if front of us screams...."She looks like Grandma."

2. We were walking behind a couple in the MK and the woman (very serious) says..."They must have a full-time electrician on staff here." and the man (again, very serious) says..."oh, I am sure they have more then one....I would think at least 4 or 5." :confused3

[CDoobee]

My family calls attractions by the wrong names on purpose now, because of doing it by accident at first.

A few years back, I had asked my husband to call and get us the Fantasmic meal package. He told me later that we were all set for "Fantasmagoric"!

And after a slip up of mine a couple of years ago, the ride in Adventureland will always be known as "Madden's Allagic Carpet Ride"

One summer, in Magic kingdom, we were waiting for the fireworks at the end of the night. My mom was filming them, starting with Tinkerbell starting them off. We all watch as Tinkerbell "flies" down the wire. A minute later my mom shouts (while still looking through the camera) "i see thumbelina...she should be coming down soon"

needless to say, we still pick on her for it!

im bumping this up with a story i read on www.hiddenmickeys.org

there was this pumpkin carving contest in 1995 and this person (not sure of the name) was watching it and this is what happened:
one of the pumpkins evidently fell off of the table, and was crushed. Around the carcass was a barricade, with a sign saying: "Please excuse our mess, this pumpkin is being refurbished for your future enjoyment."
i find that very funny

One of the funniest things I've seen: A dad is taking pictures of his kids with Pocahontas and Meeko the raccoon. He steps on Meeko's foot, Meeko loses his balance, in slow motion he's sort of falling backwards. So the dad tries to grab Meeko and ends up making matters worse and knocks him down flat on the ground. He grabs Meeko around the waist and struggles to get him back on his feet. Then, embarassed, he mumbles, "Sorry, squirrel."

Meeko acted more offended at being called a squirrel than he was about being knocked down!!!

keep the stories coming,tese are too funny :) :) :)

Another favorite-Walking out of MGM one night, it had rained and there were puddles everywhere. There were these two adorable little girls jumping in all the puzzles and singing that commercial jingle "I feel like chicken tonight, like chicken tonight!" Hilarious.

How precious - I would have been laughing, too.

[bytheblood]

Not really funny and sad in many instances....but I have overheard some variation of: Shut up and have a good time!!!! too many times to count.


I heard that too. Another not funny one, when we were on the Disney cruise, we arrived at Castaway and everybody was getting off the tram on the beach...this dad, with a very heavy New York movie-style accent said to his kids...."Shut the f*** up!! I am going to beat every one of your F***ing a**es when we get back to the Bronx."

When I heard that, I was like...&!@%#$& :crazy: &$%@^#) :confused: *!@^#$*@:faint:#*@#^@&!!!! How do you go to Disney (or anywhere for that matter) and talk to your children like that??? And in front of other people????

[bytheblood]

Haha, my mom has always called Test Track by the wrong name... "Fast Track." Does it every time. I also hear "Rock and Roll Rollercoaster" a lot. Oh, "Mission Mars" for Mission Space. Also, people are getting confused with the word "space" in so many rides, Space Mountain, Spaceship Earth, Mission Space. Then, people always want to know where to line up for the "Fantastic" show. I mean... there are lots of fantastic shows! :rotfl:


That is funny. I have a very close friend, who also works with me, that is as big of a Disney nut as I am....she and I talk about Disney so much that when we talk about attractions...everything has a shortened name or abbreviations. Our conversations are like this....

me: when you were there in October, did you ride, RnR?
her: yes, we went right from RnR to Tower
me: was this before or after Motor Cars?
her: we did the HV Fantasmic Dinner and saw Motor Cars
me: not sure if I want to ride RnR, but I will be seeing Indy this time and GMR
blah blah blah blah

When I talk to my husband about our upcoming trip, I use the acronyms and he looks at me like :confused3 :confused3 ???

We were waiting to get into Epcot and the lady in front of us asked the Cast Member where she could make dinner reservations. The Cast Member said Guest Relations was to the left of the big silver ball. The lady look at him and said:

"What Big Silver Ball?"

A lot of people that go to WDW do not spend hours out of their day on the Dis boards and do not live, breathe and dream Disney. Some people go because they won a trip or because their family takes them because they have never been.

A lot of people who go to Disney are not "Disney know-it-alls" and everything is new and exciting to them.

[Daisy'sMom]

I know that not everyone spends the insane number of hours planning like we do and that's their choice, but I can't help but smile whenever I hear the goofy comments they make. That's how I justify my addiction:) I've got to find a reason for the insanity some how.:P

[SDFgirl]

This is not so much as a funny story, but a very special one that sums up Disney World to me. Two years ago, I went down to WDW with several girlfriends...all in their early/mid-20's. We had a terrific evening at DTD and got back on the bus to the ASMusic. You know that special feeling you get at the end of a great Disney day - pleasantly tired, everything looks pretty, you're relaxed...well this little girl and her mom were sitting across from us on the bus. The girl looked about 7 years old. She leans up against her mom and said in this dreamy voice, "Oh, mom...isn't it all just so wonderful?"

Well, everyone that heard smiled, I think it just summed up how everyone felt. I still get a little teary just thinking about it.

And the rest of the trip, whenever we were having a good time, one of would say, "Oh, girls, isn't it all just so wonderful?" :wizard:

[pigby]

While riding the Haunted Mansion a few weeks ago, a man a couple of doombuggies ahead of us was trying to freak out his young daughter by letting out fakes screams and yells whenever something slightly creepy happened. After a few minutes of this annoying noise, I hear his daughter say, "Dad, be quiet. I'm riding here!"

I wanted to thank her, but I was laughing too hard.

Wondered if this family was English at all - my DH thinks it's him and my DD - and we were at WDW end October/beginning of November. Does this tie in?

[MELSMICE]

Last Sunday at Trail's End Buffet my daughter was in the buffet line & comes back giggling. She pointed to the mom in line with her "about" 3-yr old DD & another DD she was carrying & tells me what happened.

Conversation went like this:

Mom (to 3-yr old): Honey, do you want a waffle?
DD: Are they Minnie Waffles
Mom: No, they're Mickey Waffles
DD: (stamps feet) But I want a Minnie Waffle
Mom: slaps a strawberry on top of Mickey's head & says "Here, now it's a Minnie Waffle".
DD: hops back to her table, happy she'll be eating a Minnie Waffle!!!

On our honeymoon, DH and I were young and had a lot of energy, so we got used to zig zagging our way through the crowds to get where we were going without being slowed down by others. Usually this meant DH pulling me by the hand around slow moving groups and people with strollers. One day we were speed walking through WS trying to make a PS and I said to DH, "We should have been in training for this all summer. We should have practiced speed walking." and he said to me, "No,this is how we should have practiced" and then he demonstrated by dashing ahead three steps to the left, then veering off to the right, then off to the left again, etc. I laughed so hard I almost wet myself, just imagining him at home, zig zagging around the neighborhood for exercise.

[BethC1952]

Not really funny but very cute (and soooo true):

We took DGD, 3 1/2 (and her parents, and DSIL and her husband and their two kids) to the MK in Dec. 2003. It was a beautiful, warm sunny morning when we arrived. There were characters everywhere, and that beautiful Christmas tree just as you enter the park. Our plan had been to head to Fantasyland first, but DGD insisted on taking the train ride around the park first, and couldn't be talked out of it. We got on the train, and she looked around very seriously. Finally, she said "Grandma, I really think I'm a bit overwhelmed. This is just way too much fun for little kids. Maybe it should be for grownups only!"

Now, fast forward to yesterday afternoon. We were talking about the fact that she has her first (and second) loose tooth. She got that big grin and said "Grandma, now I'm all grown up. Take me back to Disney World!" I guess I'd better start saving those pennies!

[Daisy'sMom]

That is the cutest thing I have ever heard. I've had a rough couple of days so picturing your DGD saying that has really perked me up. Give her a big hug for me. :hug:

Women 2-"I see it"

Don't flame me! Those of you who look at families "forcing" a child to go on a ride... Here is one for you. My middle DD now 15 is a daredevil, but she gets very worked up and anxious while waiting in the lines. Her first time on RNR (she had sat it out the trip before) she made it through the line and into the pro-show. As the pro-show ended she began to whimper and cry. I leaned over and whispered "stop crying or ...." My DH hears this and states "Oh here we are. Another happy ____Family moment at WDW!" Everyone cracks up laughing. DD gets on the ride still whimpering. Rides it. As we get off she exclaims "That was awesome! Were we upside down?" Needless to say it has been her favorite ride ever since. Now with my DS not 11, I would never do that. different kids, different techniques! The running joke when someone gets cranky is " Another happy ---- Family moment in WDW"

Couple from my trip this past weekend:

Walking by Spaceship Earth: Kid asks if they can ride Splash Mountain. Mom says "no that is in Disney World".

On the monorail platform at MK: Older couple wants to get to All Stars. The cm says the monorail does not go there, they need to get a bus. Woman says "when we were here 3 years ago the monorail went to all the resorts".

[ekmdisney]

This didn't happen at DW, but it's kinda' Disney related.

While at a free screening of Disney's Ice Princess, we got to see a trailer for the new Herbie movie. (The trailer was good, it looks like it will be a cute movie. And Ice Princes was great.) But anyway, after the trailer was over, loud enough for every one to hear it, a little girl said to her mommy "Mom, that dosen't look like a movie a movie I can see now. We will have to wait untill I'm 6 1/2!" Every one there just started to giggle.

Two trips back when traveling with friends were doing Disney in late July, aka it was insanely hot every day. I was wearing a pair of linen shorts and we had gone through many of the misters set up around the Animal Kingdom earlier in the day. Damp & overheated we decided to head to MGM. Upon arrival we went right to the RNR. Getting off of the ride vehicle my shorts got snagged on a piece of metal and being damp easily ripped right down the middle. The very helpful CM at the ride got me a handful of baby pins from her own bag so I could do a quick jury rigging in the nearest restroom. Being as discreet as I could, quite embarassed that I was "exposed", I made my way quickly to the restroom and began using the mirror to help me place the pins. A little boy and his dad exited a stall while I was doing so and the little boy immediately saw what I was doing and said, "Holy crap! That is a big rip in your shorts!" The father admonished his son's language but we did all share a chuckle as I said, "Yes, you are indeed correct." The little boy then said, "Isn't your mommy here to help you with that? Do you want me to get my mommy?" I thanked him and said no, and they left. As we were staying offsite and using the hotel's lackluster transportation we knew we would lose the rest of the day if we left, so I secured my shorts, untucked my t-shirt, and no one was the wiser as to what had occurred. I felt very crafty in my recovery. About an hour later we were in line for Tower of Terror and who is about 5 people ahead of us, my bathroom friends. Seeing me the little boy yells down the line "Hey mister, I hope that you got that big hole in your shorts fixed ok!" hehehe

I wrote about this in my 2003 trip report (http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=416171), but it seems appropriate to include here:

My mom (CDoobee) planned a surprise quick trip for me, my DSis (CDoobeeJr.), and herself, to celebrate CDoobeeJr.'s 12th birthday. One day at EPCOT, CDoobeeJr. and I were making our way back through Future World, toward the buses, so we could head back to the resort (ASMu), where we were meeting back up with CDoobee. It started to rain a bit, but it was just a drizzle, so we weren't too worried, although the wind was picking up. I use a motorized wheelchair, so I thought we should try to hurry it up a little, as I didn't want to get my chair soaked before we made it to the buses. The rain was still a drizzle, but just as we started past the big fountain, a huge gust of wind blew in, and what felt like the entire contents of the fountain dumped directly on our heads!! :earseek: :earseek: We screamed and started running, but it's a big fountain and it just kept dumping on us, about 3 more times, until we managed to get well past it. Finally, we stopped and just looked at each other, and we both looked like we'd just jumped in the pool with our clothes on. That's when CDoobeeJr., completely deadpan, said, "Yeah, it's kinda like that."

We were on a WDW bus from MGM to TTC one day. This lady gets on in the front, very loudly walks up to the driver and says "Is this bus goin' to Disney World" in this southern drawl... The driver kept trying to explain "Disney World" was the whole complex, but she didn't want to hear it, I'm sure she was looking for MK, but who knows...

When we lived in Calif., Dh (then my dbf) and I took his visiting brother and his girlfriend to Disneyland for their first trip ever. We were in Haunted Mansion and when the lights went out in the elevator, they seemed to be out for a bit longer than usual (we had gotten stuck on three rides that day by now!) -- all of a sudden you hear in a loud voice, "Hey, don't touch me there!" It was so funny, everyone started cracking up... well, it was my dh's brother... of course!

He was also caught in a "gun fight" during POTC when we got stuck on that one... right under the guy shooting his gun... "Yo Ho Yo Ho "pow" A Pirate's Life For Me!" rang through our ears for 20+ minutes (and the rest of the day by then!)... well he started a "gun fight with the little kids behind us to amuse himself. They played back of course.

Even then, I knew his behavior was a bit over the top, but now that I have my own kids... well, you can't pick your family right?! Just gotta love 'em!

When my husband and I were eating at Pecos Bill we had a table of kids sitting behind my husband ( their parents were sitting at the table next to them)
We also had a family ( mom, dad,2 sons maybe 4 and 2) sitting next to my DH.
Now, The kids sitting behind him were the most well behaved children I have EVER seen in my life (a little scary even) The table next to us had the poor young parents trying to control their two screaming , unhappy two boys.
At one point the man leaned over to us, pointing at the table of "Stepford children" and asked... " are they yours?" We told him No. He then says" oh, because I was going to ask you how you did that" :rotfl: We laughed and then he asked the parents of the children... "PLEASE, I'm begging you, we Need to know how you did that!!" The mom sat there nodding her head. :rotfl:

I had some people that I knew that just came back from the World and I asked her which parks she went to.
"Oh we went to Animal House"
"Do you mean Animal Kingdom?"
"Yes thats it"
"Did you see its tough to be a bug?"
"Whats that? You can go inside that tree thing?!"
"Did you go to Magic Kingdom?"
"Whats that?"
"The park with the big Castle"
"I think so we went on the Space Invaders ride"
"Do you mean Space Mountain?"
"I guess so"
"Did you use Fastpass?"
"Yes we did and it stinks! We were on the other side of the park when it was our time to go on. They really should fix that so that you are right there when its your time"

I gave up at that point and called a diser friend who would understand the humor! :)

I'll share one at my own expense to help keep this thread chugging along. My mom was buying a Grumpy shirt for my dad and I began discussing with her which dwarf each of my family members was most like. When it got to picking out a dwarf that I was most like I decided I was a bit of Sleepy and Sneezy, so as I tried to tell my mom that I'd be a "combination of Sleepy and Sneezy" all that came out of my mouth was that "I'd be Sleezy." :blush: :blush: :blush: My mom was a little shocked, but other people seemed to get a kick out of it. So I'm now known as Sleezy the eighth dwarf :blush: :rolleyes1

Dont know if I'd consider this "Funny" but more embarressing for the person who said it! This was at MCO on our way home from a trip. The ticket agent asked the lady next to me if she had a good trip and they lady said " Oh it was anice trip, you know, EVERY parent has to take the kids to Disney at some point, I just cant believe people would actually get MARRIED there, I saw brides and grooms everywhere". I was standing next to her and I happened to have been married at WDW and said " OH REALLY? I was married at Walt Disney Word, It was one of the prettiest weddings ever". I'm SURE she felt very embarressed. You wonder what would make someone pick on people and where they choose to get married. I hate it when people have the attitude of "Oh we have to take the kids to Disney". LOL We have 2 kids now and you know what its more like "We have to take OURSELVES to Disney...the kids can come along, LOL"

kind of cute - my friend and i were riding barnstormer this past sunday and after the ride ended, the CMs said we could stay on if we wanted to becos there was nobody else in line. the little boy behind us turned to his father and said very matter-of-factly, "i liked it, but i'm done with it."

I posted this elsewhere, but I'm really just bumping this thread.

On my honeymoon in June, my DH took my picture with Mr. Smee who afterwards took me to skip off to tomorrowland with him. As we're skipping away, I hear the CM say to my Dh, "Well, he is a pirate!" pirate:

[remyandhollandsmommy]

Ok, I am not sure which was funnier...the little girl or my dd. We were in the bathroom and my dd was getting ready to go when we heard a little girl in another stall say, "It's sucking me down! Mommy stop the toilet!" Remy started screaming and jumped off the toilet. Her pants were around her ankles and she fell right on the floor. Apparently the self flushing toilet must have scared the little girl. I started laughing out loud and tying to calm my own dd down. It took a good five minutes for me to get Remy back on that toilet LOL!

[marypops!]

i hate them toilets.
When you sit on there, get the toilet paper while still sitting on the seat, then it flushes

My wife and I went to WDW for our honeymoon in Dec/Jan 1991-2 (thru New Years).
W were strolling around the World Showcase, and we stop in front of Canada. My wife looks up at the 'O Canada' sign, and says "hmmmm, oh-kin-aah-da. What does that mean?".

We both still get a chuckle out of that.

[Schweet]

When my DD was little and we went to Disneyland, we went into one of the restrooms. I went into one stall and my daughter went into the one right beside me. This restroom had the automatically flushing toilets. My DD got out one of the seat covers, tore the flap out, set it on the seat and started to take her pants down when WOOSH, the toilet flushed and away it went. So she started over, and again, the same thing happened. By the time she'd gone through five seat covers she was very frustrated and had to go pretty bad. She gave up, went into another stall and got it on the first try! She wasn't a happy camper and got even madder when I started laughing.

The first time I was in WDW with my Mom and Dad I was 7 yrs old, we have videos my Dad took and one video shows me getting Eyore's autograph in Mickey's Starland, that was when the charecters still walked around the parks, well on the video it is so funny hearing my Mom talking to Eyore like he was a person and the even funnier part is as we are saying goodbye to Eyore another family is comming up with their kids and their Mom says "Can you make an Eyore noise?" I know it may not sound that funny, but my Mom was always so embarrased about how she was talking to Eyore caught on tape but when the lady asks Eyore her question my Mom laughs and dosen't feel so dumb.:earboy2:

[jpeka65844]

Just got back from my first trip EVER and was on the look/listen out for funny or shocking things......thank goodness I didn't see anything shocking!

But here are two that I overheard:

DH and I were sitting on a bench across from the Totem pole in Canada at Epcot. A little boy comes skipping by with Mom and Dad and we hear him squeal "This is just so wonderful!"

And while on KS in AK, we heard a little boy say to his mom "Look Mom! Pigeons!!" To which his mother replied "no, those are PELICANS!"

Saw TONS of kids doing cute things and saw TONS of kids who'd had enough of the happiest place on earth. C'est la vie!!

I remember years back I was on the Monorail with a friend of mine. The announcement had started and it got to the point where the announcement said something to the effect of "... and for those of you standing," my friend said "for God's sake, sit down!"

The car got a chuckle out of that. The timing was perfect.

[pezpam]

OK, yes, I'm a MOMMY, but the funniest thing I ever heard came from my DD, who was 6 at teh time. Bear with me..... :)

We had just finished the safari at AK, the one where you "chase down" the poachers. DD was 6 and really got into it. At the end, she was all chatty about how we had 'caught' the poachers. I really thought she was just playing along until she said, with hands on hips and in all seriousness:

"Mommy, why would *anyone* be stupid enough to be a poacher at Disney? They have to KNOW that they don't have enough places to hide here!"

We were right up front in the vehicle, about to end the ride. I think the guide just about busted a gut trying not to laugh - as did I. :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

[doodle]

For our family Disney MEANS funny stories and laughter so....here are a couple.

This past trip we heard a family at the MK the morning after Christmas.

The girl (10 or so): "Mommy, what are we going to do first? What should we go ride?"

Mother (Sounding tired already): "We don't have any plans. We'll just see where the wind takes us."

The park was SO crowded to capacity I said to my family, "I think the wind may take them to the Hall of Presidents!"



Another story from our family. 8 of us (3 Families) were in WDW in 2001. We had made up a song to sing, we had special necklaces to wear, etc. We also had a game. We had a little figurine of the Old Hag from Snow White. The object was to NOT be stuck with it at the end of each day. We did EVERY trick to each other to pass "the hag"....put it in the other's backpack, throw it onto the balcony of my mom, we even had the concierge CM deliver it to my sister! SO funny. Anyway, I think my favorite was when my daughter sweetly gave my sister a Disney World shopping bag and said, "I just had to get this for you." My sister was so touched. "OH you shouldn't have," etc. Then she opens the bag and, you guessed it! My sister looks at my daughter and says "Oh thanks - a hag in a bag!"

We still quote that line when we see my sister!! What great memories! :)

[pdarrah]

We have 2 kids now and you know what its more like "We have to take OURSELVES to Disney...the kids can come along, LOL"

This struck a chord! DH & I started visiting WDW twice per year about 11 or 12 years ago (I first saw the MK in January 1971 when I was 7 and FORCED DH there for our honeymoon 15 yrs ago...). When we were expecting our DS (he will be 6 in about a month) you wouldn't believe how many people (nearly everyone we knew!) kept asking us "Are you still going to take all those trips to Disney now?" It always made us laugh - why would we STOP because we had a child? Of course, we also spent the 1st couple years (DS's first visit was at 6 weeks!) with the same people telling us "You know he won't remember this." Did they think we should leave him at home? Back then, we were going for us and he enjoyed the lights, colors, etc. Now of course, he has our next trip planned and his "must do" list is longer than ours!

Hi :)

This is my first post on these boards after reading them since last Nov! This has been my favorite thread and i check it every day! So I wanted my first post to be here! Everyone's stories have cracked me up so much :)

[doodle]

Just wanted to say "Welcome to the DIS!" to you, Dreamflight. Hope you have many happy hours on these boards! :)

[Dreamflight]

Thanks a lot Doodle :)

I really appreciate the welcome! One of the things that really struck me about these boards is how friendly everyone is and that made me really want to join the community! Not to mention I share a common interest...Disney! :)

My only regret is that I don't actually remember a funny overheard comment to contribute to this thread even though I'm sure I have heard many, but I'll get my memory working overtime on it!

Last Sunday at Trail's End Buffet my daughter was in the buffet line & comes back giggling. She pointed to the mom in line with her "about" 3-yr old DD & another DD she was carrying & tells me what happened.

Conversation went like this:

Mom (to 3-yr old): Honey, do you want a waffle?
DD: Are they Minnie Waffles
Mom: No, they're Mickey Waffles
DD: (stamps feet) But I want a Minnie Waffle
Mom: slaps a strawberry on top of Mickey's head & says "Here, now it's a Minnie Waffle".
DD: hops back to her table, happy she'll be eating a Minnie Waffle!!!

:sunny:

[lajones81]

OK, so it's not WDW related, but it is so cute. I went to my cousin's wedding last night and there was supposed to be a dove release. However, due to the cold weather (in Wisconsin) it couldn't happen. Another cousin (about 6 or 7 years old) said to her mom, "Mom, when I get married, can I have a dog release?" We were trying so hard not to crack up! :)

[heathriel]

This wasn't said *in* Disney, but I heard this joke last year when I went to see the comedian Lewis Black during my F&W Festival trip:

<Overheard in an IHOP>: If it wasn't for that horse, I never would have spent that year in college.

As his joke continues, he says "don't think about this too long, or it will stick in your brain and your brain will eventually explode." Truly, I've not forgotten him saying that, and I probably won't for a long, long time. Consequently, I try never to listen in on other people's conversations :) If I do happen to hear something wacky, I actually have been known to go up to people and ask them what they were talking about (and why I'm asking.)

[GrumpeyMom]

This was just too funny and I had to share.

On our first trip in 1998 my DS was 7. He was a fairly brave 7 and he decided to go on ToT with me. We both of course screamed our lungs out during the ride but he didn't have much to say about it after that so I thought he handled it okay....

Well, either later that night or the next day we were going to CR for dinner at Chef Mickey's. We got in the very crowded but quiet elevator to go up to the 4th floor, and all of a sudden my son says "WE'RE GONNA FALL!!!" Everyone in the elevator just lost it. DH and I still giggle about that one.

DS is now 14 and we're going back in December, whenever I ask him if he'll go on the "elevator" ride with me he says "NO WAY" and runs off.

CM:No but I can special order one for you.

On one of our trips to MK, we were walking through the park when we saw a young child 2-3 laying face down on the pavement screeming and pounding his fists. His mom was standing over him saying " Walt Disney world, the happiest place on earth" My DH still tells this story and laughs about it. :rotfl2:

I have two things, both made by CMs.
1. After a dinner at the California Grill, we boarded the elevator and waited for our escort. As he entered, he said "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the California Grill's version of the Tower of Terror. We will rise up to the 16th floor and then plummet straight down." You should have seen the look on my face, I was about ready to bolt.

2. While in line for Minnie at Epcot, this CM walks up to these young kids behind me and first of all tells the little girl, who was wearing flip flops, that her shoes are untied. He then tries the little boy:"I'm psychic, I know where you live." "No you don't" Yeah, I do, I really do." "Okay then, where?" "At home." I about fell over laughing.

Not at Disney, but Disney related. We have toll road that we take often, so decided to purchase an Express Pass, so we could just zoom past the toll booths. We approached the customer service desk at the grocery store to purchase it, and my husband says, "We'd like to buy a fastpass." I was laughing so hard at him, and responded, "Dear, don't you know fastpasses are free." He was a little embarrassed, but he still calls it a fastpass.

[ANTSS2001]

A funny I heard over the weekend, Not a WDW incident though. Me and niece was in Washington DC :cool1: last Saturday 3/19 for the 75 statue of Mickey and it does say "Celebrating 75 yEars of Mickey" at the Bill board... well here comes a guy on his cell talking to some1 and says you have to see this about 100 Mickey statue outside the Ronald reagan Bldg... my niece said it's 75 not 100 and if you include the real Mickey on the stage with Raven then it's 76!!! :rotfl: To funny!!

[CAD3655]

We were in MK last March waiting for the Wishes Fireworks to start. My DH and I were traveling with a friend and her husband. This trip was the first time our husbands had met as we live in different parts of the country...As we were waiting for the fireworks on the curb, a small boy maybe 6 or 7 poked his head between me and my DH and started talking to me about the castle.

Child: How do you think it changes colors like that?
Me: Hmmm...I bet it's magic...
Child: Wow it's really cool...do you think they are painting it? How can they do it that fast?
Me: I don't think they are painting it either...pixie dust? Maybe it's magic lights?

Friends Husband to GF: Please tell me I am hearing things! Is she explaining to her husband how the castle changes colors?!?!?!?!?!

Overheard outside a Mens Restroom at the AK

"Daddy, when I grow up, I won't have to wash my hands after I pee, will I?"

"No son, you should always wash your hands no matter how old you are"

"Well, (pointing at a gentleman waiting for someone to emerge from the restroom) that man didn't" :teeth:

This wasn't really funny but I heard it from one of the characters...

When we went to MK, as we entered to Main Street we got in line for Baloo. Anyway, as we were up next I heard Baloo whisper to one of the character helper people the following:

"You better get me outta this suit, I can't stand anymore of these f*cking kids!".

It's not like he yelled it or anything but it just surprised me! I was like... yea. So anyway we still got his signature, it was only a five minute leave, they said he had to go and check on Mogli...

Way back when "Super Star Television" was still in effect at MGM I was there on line with my WHOLE Fam (Mom, Dad, 2 sisters, 3 cousins, aunt and uncle). When they started looking for volunteers, VERYONE in my family started screeching and jumping up and down trying to be picked. It was a packed crowd and somehow I got picked along with my two sisters, two of my cousins and my dad. Backstage they asked us for our names for the credits at the end of the show. After the third or fourth "Johnston" the very confused CM finally threw his hands up and announced "Well I guess we'll just start calling this Johnston Television!"

Throughout the day people recognized my very loud and exuberant family wherever we went. My family is very theatrical and we were just eating it up...being total hams. Unfotunately my oldest cousin (who was 18 at the time) is a bit of an Eeyore and wanted to just crawl into a crack in the sidewalk (he was SO embarassed). Finally after watching me and my sister conduct a belching contest while waiting for a parade, listening to my dad and uncle singing Zippity-doo-da with complete strangers, and assorted other nonsense, my curmudgeon of a cousin finally announced what has become our family credo ever since....

"We are the Johnstons...the world is our living room!"

[BamaTigger]

people say the derndest things!! Here are 2 things I have heard!

:confused3 One lady walked up to a MK CM and asked her 'WHAT TIME IS THE 3:00 PARADE?"

:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

We were at the WL and waiting to get on the bus to TTC and some man asked the driver of the bus "DOES THIS BUS TAKE YOU TO THE TICKET AND TRANS CENTER"...(uh...the destination was right on front of the bus).

I was waiting in the walkway between Tarzans Treehouse and Indy, waiting for my older kids to get out of Indy, and my 11 y/o DS to climb the treehouse. I was trying to keep an eye on both exits so that I would not miss anyone coming off the attractions. Anyway, a family is walking by with a little boy about 6-7 years old, and he is pointing excitedly at Tarzans Treehouse and shouting " I want to go to the monkey palace, I want to go to the monkey palace!" . I had been reading this thread about a week before we left, and after I finished laughing and wiping the tears from my face, I knew that I had a good story to share! I don't know why he was calling TT the "monkey palace", but I wondered if his parents had been calling it that!!!! :rotfl:

[tinkerbelle22]

It actually wasn't me, but my friend was like 8, and she was at the kidcot funstops they had in Epcot. She's standing next to this idiodic girl who keeps singing, "Celebrate the future, hand in hand!" She wouldn't stop. I actually thought it was hilarious, but my friend just had a headache.

[MrsBanks]

while eating breakfast at 1900 Park Fare the Mad Hatter comes to our table and is talking to my DD and DS (almost 3 at the time), I say to DS "go ahead, say hi" to which my little darling replies "mommy, can't you see i'm eating here?" HOW RUDE

also, while waiting on line for PotC there was a family behind us, the "dad" was singing (quite loudly) "Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho a Pirate's life for me" - I think he was a bit confused pirate:

[donaldsgal]

these are the funniest things i've "heard" in a while. wanted to add a few of my own.

mine are also more experiences than statements. before i describe them, let me just say that i love my mother very much, but boy can she be a nit-wit sometimes. :goodvibes

1) my mom was in awe of Disney throughout our trip. she was, as others have described, amazed at how real some of Disney's creations look. well, as we're loading into the library to see the video clip at TOT, my mother comments about how real the statue next to the entry looked. she reached out to touch his face - and he blinked. this FREAKED my mother out (since he was of course a real person and not a statue), and she ran in and grabbed ahold of (what she thought was) my arm. she started laughing and snorting and leaned her forehead against (what she thought was) my arm. i'm standing off to the side laughing so hard i can't breathe and trying to pry her hands off of the arm of this complete STRANGER whose upper arm is clenched in my mother's death-giggle-grip. finally my mom looks up, SCREAMS "OHMYGOSH" and lets go and doubles over with laughter and embarrassement. the stranger smiles and says, "I understand. This ride can be scary." my sister kept giggling and trying to say "ssshhhh" at the say time because we were probably ruining the preshow for the other guests, but it just kept coming out at "sss-sss-sss-sss-sss". it was hilarious.

2) as we are boarding TOT, the CM says, "Please be sure to fasten your seatbelts. Hopefully they'll work better for you than they did the previous guests." My mom's eyes get HUGE and she looks at me and says, "The SEATBELTS don't work?!?!?!?" I had to block the aisle to keep her from getting off the ride.

3) After we ride the TOT (during which my good, Christian mother blurted out expletives as we endured the drop sequence), she gets out of her seatbelt, climbs OVER my sister, aunt, and me, and RUNS past the CM, down the hallway, through the giftshop, and outside. The whole time, my sister and I (veteran Disney lovers) are chasing after her half giggling and half worried because we're yelling, "Mom? Mom! Mom, are you okay? Mom, just stop! Stop! MOM! Slow down! MOTHER!" We catch up to her outside, sitting on the stone wall, panting and clutching her purse like she had just been attacked. She looks at us and says,
"That was TERRIBLE.
I think I want to do it again. (in a voice that was like, I must be insane!)"

It was the best day of our trip. We rode it another 6 times that trip. On one of those subsequent rides, a woman was getting on TOT and crying becasue she was so scared. My mother looks at her and says, "Oh it'll be okay. Don't worry. It's really not that scary." Yeah right, Mom!

Say what you want about Disney, but it can at times bring out the profanity in all of us! ;)

[donaldsgal]

[QUOTE=kimg826]This thread is soooo funny, that I thought I would add a stories of my own. In 2003, our first trip to WDW, our first day we went to MGM and my DD, 11 at the time, We went to the Muppet Show and I had to coaxed my family to go. Anyways after the show on our way out, I asked them how they liked it? They all enjoyed it, but my oldest DD, says, "It was good, but mom I was so embarrassed! I asked her why? and she says "Everyone must have been staring at me when the little heart thing was talking with me" We got such a kick out of it.

Again with my mother... when we're in "It's Tough to be a Bug", the first 3-D figures come out and my mom exclaims, "OHMYGOSH you guys! You should sit where I'm sitting! There's a little thing talking right to me!"

How hilarious...

[wildbill]

On our last trip with my SIL she had a couple of margaritas in Mexico-upon leaving she looks at the stairs and then at the ramp and say "This is so Disney-they even have a drunk ramp"

We kid her about it to this day

[dis-happy]

We just got back and heard this at MK.....

We were standing on the sidewalk on the way toward Splash Mountain. I overhear this woman as she is pointing toward the chute on Splash, saying loudly to her family----"you don't really go down that big waterfall, it's only for looks." I looked right at her and started laughing. For some reason there was a delay between boats, but finally, a boat goes sailing down the chute, loaded with screaming passengers. I laughed harder. She contritely says to her family, "I guess I was wrong." :rotfl2: Don't know if they ever went on it or not.

[webray]

If you want thrill rides they have the matterhorn..lol. We heard this Easter weekend while an adult member of another family was trying to convince the kids the MK would be fun..lol. I about cracked up.

[MickeyMacks]

The funniest thing I ever heard at MK definately came out of my OWN Mouth, unintentionally of course!!

A few weeks ago, we were finishing up a LONG day at MK with my DH, 2 kids, stepson and his wife, and their 5 month old baby.

Everyone else went on Splash Mountain at about 7 p.m. except me - I was left with my ds (2) and my step-grandson, 5 months. My son was being SO good, but the baby was really upset. My son probably sat there for 20 minutes playing with a small bag of trail mix. He was picking out the parts he likes, and putting the rest of the stuff (basically the nuts) in the little cup holders in the tray of his stroller. Then he'd move them from one place to the other, and back again. In the meantime, the baby REALLY started getting upset, and I'm trying to bounce him on my knee, and at the same time, my son decides he's had enough of this and he's getting out of the stroller NOW. So I'm saying "Please, Elliot, get back in the stroller. Come on Elliot, come on over here and sit, please. Come on, you can sit over here and play with your nuts"!!! Well, there was a young guy sitting next to me (with his infant child) who started to snicker (like you snicker in church when you know you shouldn't be snickering). I ALMOST DIED when I realized what I had said, QUITE LOUDLY, in front of too many people!!! I had to keep sitting there and wait another 15 minutes or so until they all came off the ride.... It was awful!
OMG I'm laughing so hard I've got tears in my eyes!

[THE HAT]

this is one said by ds(7 at the time now 8) while at WS at epcot. dh and i had both had a half yard of ale from rose and crown, and walked around, while on the way back through (which mind you was quite a bit later) we deceided to get a refill to enjoy while watching illumanations. well the area was quite busy and as we were paying and walking off with our looong beers. ds very loudly says "good thing i am here, you two will need a designated walker now!!"

to which all turned and laughed, as ds walked in front of us arms out to his sides like he was clearing a path for his drunk parents.

We were at Epcot watching illuminations and a little boy beside us asked his dad "Daddy where do fireworks come from?" and his older sister looked at him like he was so stupid and said "Duh spaceships."

[micks]

Last week at the MK a guy says to the people with him:

"Hey! Haunted Mansion! Is that new?" I couldn't help but giggle!

[ArielDreams]

In the waiting area for Mickey's Philharmagic, Goofy was saying something and an 8 year old boy says quite sarcastically, "he thinks he's soooo funny."

[jnrrt]

Okay, I have no idea if people are still reading this, but I just found it and read the whole thing!

Couple of my own:

1) My very sweet grandmother, who is the epitome of old world grace looks at a menu and says with sweet surprise, "Oh, they have ICED cake! What a treat that would be on a hot day!"

2) My daughter, 4 at the time, was bugging me and bugging me to take her on the haunted mansion. She is a pretty catious kid, though, and prone to nightmares, so I kept telling her I thought it wasn't a very good idea. It's on one of her movies though, and she was adamant, "No, I'll be fine, I promise, I just want to see it, I won't be scared!" etc. I finally decided to take her - it had been several years since I'd been on, and I didn't remember it being bad. Well, after we get in and she lives through the stretching room and we get in the doombuggies, we've made it through a few scenes, but we get to the graveyard, and she takes one look and says, so reproachfully (like I'm so disappointed in you, mom), "I really don't think this is good for me. Do you really think this was a wise choice?" She rode the rest of the ride with her head in my lap and her hands over her ears.

3) Next trip, same daughter but more adventurous now decided she wanted to ride Splash Mountain. I showed her the drop, but she said she could do it as long as I held her hand. So we wore our ponchos because it was too cold to want to be wet (January) and we go. Okey dokey, and she really did fine, but when we got to the big drop, she got pretty freaked and put her head in my lap again. I bent down over her to make sure she was okay and we go over.

So when we walking out, the people with us were moving faster because she was reliving the whole thing, and when we got to the picture area, the people in the log with us looked at me and tried not to snicker, and left quickly, so I looked at the picture, and there's me, you can't even see my daughter because she's short and in my lap and I'm bending over her, so basically I look like some poor, terrified woman cowering all alone in a red poncho in the back of the log. LOL! Everyone was looking at the picture and at us, and trying not to smile. Now my husband says that there's a family out there somewhere with that picture framed, who call me the poncho lady.

When were were on the Asian trail in March this year at Animal Kingdom someone pointed to one of the animals in the exhibit and asked the CM if that animal was extinct.

My DH and I overheard one on Sunday at EPCOT. We are walking toward Test Track over by the Coke thing that looks like a car wash, it sprays water and a cooling mist if you are hot. This family is walking towards us and the kids run for this to cool off. The dad says to the mom "don't let them get wet" and she promply replies "it's not water it's mist" :confused3 now it may not get you totaly wet but it's still water.... Right.....

We used to have a cat named Aunt Bea. When DD was about 5, we took her on Pirates of the Carribbean for the first time. She caught onto the song quite fast: "Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's like Aunt Bea."



Saw the part about the cat, but all I can picture in my head is Aunt Bea from the Andy Griffith show in a pirate costume!

[PrincessJasmine1972]

When my youngest DD was about 4, we visited MK. Both of my daughters love The Little Mermaid, so we had told them about Ariel's Grotto. Well, Grotto isn't a word that is in most 4 year old vocabularies, so we were quite embarrased when we were standing in a crowded line and my daughter blurted out "When are we going to see Ariels crotch?"

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

[scanmom]

Me and DS were at DLR back in 1987 or so...he was 3 years old. We were riding the monorail and there was an older asian couple sitting right across from us. They spoke very little english. They indicated to me that they wanted me to take a picture of the 2 of them, so I smiled and nodded and took the picture. Then, they indicated they wanted pics of each of them with me and my DS!!! They pretty much insisted, so I smiled and let them. I figure our pictures are in Japan or someplace like that in some photo album. I can see them showing their vacation pics to friends and family and telling them about the young lady that took their picture while they rode the monorail!!! That was too strange!! But I still laugh about it today! :earboy2:

I'm laughing so hard I can't breathe, and can barely see to type!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

[MinnieM21]

Okay, I have no idea if people are still reading this, but I just found it and read the whole thing!

Couple of my own:

1) My very sweet grandmother, who is the epitome of old world grace looks at a menu and says with sweet surprise, "Oh, they have ICED cake! What a treat that would be on a hot day!"

2) My daughter, 4 at the time, was bugging me and bugging me to take her on the haunted mansion. She is a pretty catious kid, though, and prone to nightmares, so I kept telling her I thought it wasn't a very good idea. It's on one of her movies though, and she was adamant, "No, I'll be fine, I promise, I just want to see it, I won't be scared!" etc. I finally decided to take her - it had been several years since I'd been on, and I didn't remember it being bad. Well, after we get in and she lives through the stretching room and we get in the doombuggies, we've made it through a few scenes, but we get to the graveyard, and she takes one look and says, so reproachfully (like I'm so disappointed in you, mom), "I really don't think this is good for me. Do you really think this was a wise choice?" She rode the rest of the ride with her head in my lap and her hands over her ears.

3) Next trip, same daughter but more adventurous now decided she wanted to ride Splash Mountain. I showed her the drop, but she said she could do it as long as I held her hand. So we wore our ponchos because it was too cold to want to be wet (January) and we go. Okey dokey, and she really did fine, but when we got to the big drop, she got pretty freaked and put her head in my lap again. I bent down over her to make sure she was okay and we go over.

So when we walking out, the people with us were moving faster because she was reliving the whole thing, and when we got to the picture area, the people in the log with us looked at me and tried not to snicker, and left quickly, so I looked at the picture, and there's me, you can't even see my daughter because she's short and in my lap and I'm bending over her, so basically I look like some poor, terrified woman cowering all alone in a red poncho in the back of the log. LOL! Everyone was looking at the picture and at us, and trying not to smile. Now my husband says that there's a family out there somewhere with that picture framed, who call me the poncho lady.

Okay - I posted this one a long time ago on another thread, but since this thread is still going, I'll add it in here!

When we visited in 1997, my boys were 5, 3 and almost 2. We bought autograph books for the older 2, but decided the youngest wouldn't understand or care. All went well for about 3/4 of the visit, until right in the middle of an autograph session with Pooh & Pals, when he suddenly realized his brothers had one and he didn't. We have it on video where you see him figuring it out and just abruptly bursting into tears in front of the characters.

But the funny part was that when we then bought him one, he wouldn't let any of the characters sign it. Every time we'd see one, they'd first sign his brothers' books, then when they reached for his book, he'd clutch it to his chest, glare at them, and say loudly "NO, MINE!" So he has an autograph book full of his scribbles and no autographs!

We did the same thing. We bought books for our DS7 and DD4 but not for DD20months. At our first PS at 1900 Park Fare, she kept picking up the books and pens trying to get her autographs. I had to leave dinner and run to the gift shop to get a book for her. She wanted her autographs! It was so funny. I can still see her walking up to Cruella DeVil at MK and handing her the open book and pen. Cruella's "handler" was cracking up laughing at her. The funny thing was, she knew who she wanted autographs from and which ones she didn't. And it didn't always have to do with knowing the characters!

After years of taking our kids to Disney at least once a year, our neighbors finally decided to take their 11yr to her first Disney trip. They kept telling me how much they were going to hate it. Well, we were sitting by the pool at the Swan/Dolphin and she said to me " This would be great if it wasn't for the kids and all the rides". I had to remind her that it would not be Disney without either. Needless to say, this next Jersey week they are going to Italy on a tour where their daughter will be the only kid while we are at Disney having a blast.

I overheard this as I was walking in front of the Rose & Crown in the UK pavilion with my 1/2 yard of Bass Ale. This English gentleman was aparently informing his family (who was a good distance away mind you) how he would know thier table was ready. He yells loudly to them in that wonderful British accent "They give you a vibrator" I couldn't help but snicker!!! I almost spit my beer on my husband! I certainly knew what he ment but it sounded so funny. :teeth:

[MI mom of 3]

This one happened to me a few years ago. I had to use the restroom. I had taken off my fanny pack with the walkie talkie clipped to it and hung it on the back of the door. All of a sudden horrible noises started coming out of the walkie. My brother was outside with the other walkie making grunting and farting noises!!!! I was unable to reach it to turn in off, so I just sat there plotting his death when I got out.

As I left the stall an older woman was leaving the stall next to me and very kindly asked if I was feeling alright!?!? :earseek:

I got outside and he was practically crying he was laughing so hard. Now he is not a kid, he was about 30 years old at the time.

Little brothers never change!! :confused3

[Disney Cakers]

Here's a couple about Florida aligators-

At our first trip back in 1983, at the Jellystone campground - Standing at the bank of a pond my Uncle is looking out very intently at the water. My dad asks, "what are you looking for?" to which he replys "lookin' out for gators." so pointing a few feet away from him my dad says, "well, guess you better watch out for that one" :rotfl2:

During my mom & dad's honeymoon trip (they drove to FL) dad encouraged mom to watch out for the gators. Eager, she looked out the window and asked "what color are they?" and he said, "what do you think? they're pink!" :Pinkbounc

Though not Disney related, my funniest travel one is this-
We live in TX and another Aunt and Uncle from CA had just returned from a month at South Padre Island, and they inform us that they are going to buy a condo there to rent out & stay in. We start talking about the rock jetties (that go out for miles into the gulf) and my Aunt says how the beaches are wonderful and there aren't any sharks. We start laughing :rotfl2: because she then says "You mean there are sharks on BOTH sides of the jetty?"

[da-winnie-pooh]

Oh, these are hilarious.

I hope someone else can see the humor in this. My brother is a single dad and took his kids to WDW right before Christmas. How do I say this? They're just not into it. His kids won't ride thrill rides (even Splash Mountain) and Buzz is a baby ride so they didn't do too much. Anyway, I told them how wonderful the Crystal Palace was. They didn't like it. They ate there, but his kids didn't like being hugged by the characters, etc. Then,when they got back, my brother said something along the lines of, "Man, that place was too expensive! I could've eaten at Shoney's two and a half times for what we paid to eat there!"

All I could think of was, "If yew'd rather eat at Shoney's two an' a half times than at the Crystal Palace once. . . yew might be a redneck."

I'm trying to figure out which of the comments were made by them :rolleyes2

I'm raising my children to appreciate the finer things in life. Like WDW!

[CourtasanSatine]

Lol Lol

[Danauk]

OK, I'm my defence before I admit to this I would like to point out that I was on my first trip to WDW and it was the first time I had been on ToT.
My husband and I love thrill rides so we headed over to MGM and rode RnRC then went over to ToT. We were enjoying the ride and got to the part where you are taken to the top floor and the doors open. Well as the doors opened there was a guy on the other side of the door waving at us. Without thinking why he was there I said to my husband (luckily I said it quietly) "That must be a really boring job, just sitting there all day waving at people when the doors opened." It wasn't until the ride had finished that it occured to me. The guy was replacing the dead bulb on the camera!!

OK, I felt stupid!! And in my defence my DH wondered why he was there too.

[doodlebugs-mom]

I have a few from my DD (almost 3) old on our trip in February:

Mommy there's Goofy!!!!! I goota see him, I ask why? He needs me to dance with him!!!!! Why? Mommy he's goofy. Needless to say she met goofy 13 times in 10 days...lol

At the entrance to Epcot - OOOh, Daddy look! A big golf ball.

A staffmember at Epcot came up to us and was talking to DD and gave her some stickers and told her he was talking to Micky and Mickey wanted to make sure she was having a wonderful time. Her response- I no want Mickey, I like goofy, call goofy. I about feel off the bench I was sitting on.

ETA: Outside the living seas it blows bubbles and DD wanted to climb the wall and go affter them. After telling her many times no she turns and a tells me Nemo is blowing them for me I gotta get them.
There are hundreds more.

Over the years, we've heard many funny comments. A few favorites are:

1. While talking on our two-way radios - "someone else is on our channel!" There are what 20-30 channel and thousands of families!

2. At the Boardwalk bus stop waiting for the MK bus from a 5 year old boy - "I don't have to wait for ANYTHING!"

3. My sister asked her 7 year old son if he wanted to switch seats with her in Philharmagic since she was in the seat directly in front of Donald!

4. Not really an "overheard, but funny in its own right....my parents (at age 58) were at the MK for the day. My dad, being a pilot, said hey lets go on that Space Mountain ride. (He honestly thought it was a space EXHIBIT ride.) As they got closer to boarding, my mom noticed the "if you have heart, back, etc. problems" and says maybe we shouldn't be on this ride. Dad said no, look at all the old people and little kids in this line. SURPRIZE!

Overheard on the bus...

"Well if they know our bus is running late, maybe they'll hold Illuminations for us!"

They had a little girl, about 7 or so. So I said to the little girl "are you having a great time" and she smiled and said yes and I said "isn't the castle beautiful" and before she could respond her Dad said "yes, absolutely the Eifel tower is just beautiful" and then proceeded to giggle along with his wife. I was confused and smiled and said "um, well I meant the castle there, pointing to it" and he said "oh I know". The mother then said to the child to go and put something in the litter bin and whispered to me "we're hoping she'll think it's the Eifel Tower - otherwise when we get home my parents will have a fit if they hear we were in Paris for 3 days and never even saw the Eifel Tower" - rofl!

I have laughed during this entire thread, but this one little statement had me rolling. Thanks for the wonderful chuckle, I think all of us have been in a situation that caused us to say something we wouldn't normally say.

My daughter finally talked me into going on Splash Mountain, now I am a long time Disney "freak" as my DH says, and have ridden Space Mountain, and GTM, but not TOT, nor RNR, and I scream going down the small water fall in POTC...(just a little back story) What she said and I quote was "there is only one drop mom and it is at the very end, the rest is just a really neat ride" So I went on, as we went down aalllllll of the little drops during the rest of the ride I would smack her and she would say "ohhh I forgot about this one" while laughing so hard she was crying. Now whenever we go back to DW, and there is a ride she wants to do, she says, but there is only one drop, and we all start laughing again....I still haven't gone back on Splash Mountain. :rotfl:

[jlaspoq]

these are the funniest things i've "heard" in a while. wanted to add a few of my own.

mine are also more experiences than statements. before i describe them, let me just say that i love my mother very much, but boy can she be a nit-wit sometimes. :goodvibes

1) my mom was in awe of Disney throughout our trip. she was, as others have described, amazed at how real some of Disney's creations look. well, as we're loading into the library to see the video clip at TOT, my mother comments about how real the statue next to the entry looked. she reached out to touch his face - and he blinked. this FREAKED my mother out (since he was of course a real person and not a statue), and she ran in and grabbed ahold of (what she thought was) my arm. she started laughing and snorting and leaned her forehead against (what she thought was) my arm. i'm standing off to the side laughing so hard i can't breathe and trying to pry her hands off of the arm of this complete STRANGER whose upper arm is clenched in my mother's death-giggle-grip. finally my mom looks up, SCREAMS "OHMYGOSH" and lets go and doubles over with laughter and embarrassement. the stranger smiles and says, "I understand. This ride can be scary." my sister kept giggling and trying to say "ssshhhh" at the say time because we were probably ruining the preshow for the other guests, but it just kept coming out at "sss-sss-sss-sss-sss". it was hilarious.

2) as we are boarding TOT, the CM says, "Please be sure to fasten your seatbelts. Hopefully they'll work better for you than they did the previous guests." My mom's eyes get HUGE and she looks at me and says, "The SEATBELTS don't work?!?!?!?" I had to block the aisle to keep her from getting off the ride.

3) After we ride the TOT (during which my good, Christian mother blurted out expletives as we endured the drop sequence), she gets out of her seatbelt, climbs OVER my sister, aunt, and me, and RUNS past the CM, down the hallway, through the giftshop, and outside. The whole time, my sister and I (veteran Disney lovers) are chasing after her half giggling and half worried because we're yelling, "Mom? Mom! Mom, are you okay? Mom, just stop! Stop! MOM! Slow down! MOTHER!" We catch up to her outside, sitting on the stone wall, panting and clutching her purse like she had just been attacked. She looks at us and says,
"That was TERRIBLE.
I think I want to do it again. (in a voice that was like, I must be insane!)"

It was the best day of our trip. We rode it another 6 times that trip. On one of those subsequent rides, a woman was getting on TOT and crying becasue she was so scared. My mother looks at her and says, "Oh it'll be okay. Don't worry. It's really not that scary." Yeah right, Mom!

Say what you want about Disney, but it can at times bring out the profanity in all of us! ;)

This isn't as funny as the other posts, but it gave me a giggle. As my DD (4) was riding the carousel, she yelled out, "Yee-Haw!" with the biggest smile on her face. She was just so excited about riding on a "horse" that she couldn't help it.

[DeeJay]

Many years ago I was in line for Space Mountain at Disneyland. There was a father and daughter in line in front of me. As we came up to the loading area, the father turned to me with a worried look on his face, 'Does this ride have a loop in it?' I burst out laughing, and assured him that there were no loops in the ride.

More recently, I was on the Tower of Terror at DCA. When the first drop came, my hand was suddenly grabbed by the young man sitting next to me. I guess it was his first time on the ride. He seemed a little embarassed, but I thought it was hilarious.

[house_of_princesses]

I have been feeling so blue this week...even the DIS wasn't helping.

Until now! I'm laughing so hard, I'm crying! I just read the thread about "You know you've been a DISer too long when..." and now this. OMG! :rotfl: Eifel Tower, running Mom's, profanity galore.

These are hilarious! Here's mine:

Dad and I were on line for ToT, right behind some guy. He was an extreme "tough guy", with the bandana, and muscle shirt, and tatoos. So he's like, "I've done this ride. It's easy, watch me pose for the picture," or soemthing like that. So we get on the ride, and as soon as we hit the first drop, I glance over at that guy. Sure enough, there he was, screaming like a little girl. Between him screaming out, "Oh my god! Oh my god! AHHHH!" and the priceless look on his face in the picture, :scared1: I can't help but laugh still thinking about it!

Oh, and I love this one in the Unofficial Guide:
"We rode Snow White's Scary Adventures. My daughter screamed the whole time, and was shot for the day. Grandpa kept asking, "Where in the hell is Snow White?!"

These are great!

This happened years ago, but it is still vivid in my memory. My teenage son who was then 16 months old, was sitting in his stroller while we were in one of those zigzag llines to see Capt. EO (classic Michael Jackson 3-D laser show) at Disneyland. This chunky boy about 16 or 17 passed by in line and my son blurred out, "Look Mom -- BIG boo boo!" And he also pointed at his butt at the same time! :earseek: The folks in line behind us and in front of us were literally biting their lips to keep from laughing. My DH and I felt so bad for that kid, because he was still standing in line adjacent to us. Anyone could tell he was very embarassed and our DS was too young to realize what he had said and did by pointing. :guilty:

We will never forget it. It is funny now, but it wasn't funny to us then :rolleyes:

My mom was getting an eclair from the bakery in France and tried to say thank you in French by saying (in her southern drawl) "Mercy!" We laughed and said, "Uh, Mom, it's merci!"

you reminded me of when I took DS, then 5, now 23, to DL for the very
first time. We had over the course of 3 days, ridden all the rides, seen
all the shows..his favorite--Captain EO, my favorite-space mountain.
(we were single mom/son at the time, BTW) when it gets to the last
2 ish hours I said to DS, okay, we can each choose 1 ride for us to go
on--he says, of course "captain EO!!!!! captain EO!!!! I said, okay, captain
EO it is..my choice is space mountain! we walked through the line, for
him, it was like a death march...the whole time he was saying..."I don't
want to do this..but I have to...over and over...we get on the ride, strap
ourselves in..I have my arms around him so his arms don't go flailing ,
then..... AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH !!!! :earseek: and the
moral of the story is...now his loves it...we laugh about this anytime
anything disney comes up!!

[tcfdick]

These are hilarious! :rotfl2:
Here's one from my family. When my DS was 6 yr. he was finally tall enough to ride Space Mountain. He had been looking forward to this ride for a couple of years because his sister had told him all about it. Since there are four in our family, we put him in between my husband and myself with his sister in the next rocket. Even though he was looking forward to this ride, I was really worried since he had never ridden on a roller coaster before. Well, we go through all of the twists and turns and I hear him screaming. We get to the end of the ride and start to slow down when he yells, "Yee Haw, let's do it again!!" so loud that everyone could hear him. The CM's were laughing and so were we. ;)

hahahahahahaha. This reminds me of my first time on BTMRR. I was about 7 at the time and my dad took me on. It was my first time on a roller coaster. The whole ride I was screaming and wanted it to just end. Once we got off, I was like "Let's do it again!!!" I think I scared my dad that day. Yeah I was a strange kid, you don't have to tell me.

I'm going back to WDW in September. Of course I'll keep an ear out for funny things. And I also hope I'm not the cause of any. :earboy2:

[PrincessJasmine1972]

posted this to the "Clueless guest comments" thread I started a while ago but it fits here as well.

Where is this thread? I would love to read it if its as funny as this one..lol..I searched it but I can't find it..

[CourtasanSatine]

bump,these are too funny

[jekajekalynn]

As I was frantically printing out WDW info and getting last minute things done for our trip this Saturday, I asked my son who is almost three years old, if he is happy that we are going to go see Winnie the Pooh in Florida. He nodded "yes". Then he smiled REALLY big and asked happily "Are we going to go to McDonalds in Florida too??!!!" :cloud9:

[savs]

These are great! I'm hoping to post some of my own once we get back from our trip in a couple weeks :cool1:

My favorite so far was the once about the boy playing with the "Nuts". This one I Could actualy here myself saying :rotfl:

[mickeym0use]

Cool thread! :rotfl2:
After I went to see fantasmic me and my mom where just taking our time out of the park...anyway, we overhear this little girl- "mickey is the most wonderfulist, most powerfulist, most loyalist...." lol!
Oh! and when I went to crystal palace for breakfast (which was AWESOME by the way :Pinkbounc) we were in the bathroom and this little boy was talking to his mom while he was waiting....
"Mom...."
"yes _____ (his name)"
"I loved breakfast but think about the pooh and his friends. They have to eat here EVERY DAY and they NEVER get a day off!"
*this part is so funny!*
"sounds like you have been doing a lot of thinking.."
and the little boy is like yes.
It was soooo funny! I was trying not to like burst out laughing....

[GingerbreadCoffin]

These are great! ::yes::

About 2 years ago me,my husband and a couple that we have been best friends with since High School decided to take our two toddlers to Epcot.
We hadn't been in the park very long when we decided to do The Land boatride.I had never been on the ride and I had no idea that The Garden Grille overlooked it.
I am sitting in the boat grinning.I thought it was so neat how the temp.,atmosphere,noises and humidity changed in all of the different scenes.
We got halfway through the desert scene and my buddy Mike goes "Hey!The desert smells like hamburgers!" :earseek: .Everyone on the boat within hearing distance lost it.So now everytime I go on that ride I have a fit of giggles when we get to that part.

jekajekalynn - that's what our kids were like too. When they were in the 3,5, 6 age range, we took the 3 of them on a 3 night cruise. They enjoyed it, of course, but when we returned asked if they'd like to go on another one sometime. They said yes, but the youngest added, "and could we go to Chuck E Cheese too?" Let's see - $2000 for the cruise vs $20 for CEC!

I can add to that one. After our entire family went together for a week at WDW, we were asking the kids what their favorite parts were, and everyone was naming favorite rides, etc., when my neice yells, "My favorite was that train at the airport - that was AWESOME!"

If only we'd known that we could save all that admission and just let her ride the airport monorail/tram thingie over and over.

Alright, this one was me at 6. (I'm now 28 and planning for Dec. trip.) I was a scrawny little thing and my parents had brought me over to see a character. I was a little too close and when the character turned around quickly his belly knocked me to my knees and I had to have band aids. I cried(I WAS 6) My parents knew that the character was Smee but for the rest of the trip when anyone asked what happened to my knees I told them in a serious and wide eyed manner that I had been attacked by one of the seven dwarfs. :blush:

A few years ago we were visiting the characters in toontown. My DS, I think he was 7 at the time, went to Tigger for his autograph. He asked Tigger why he wasn't bouncing and Tigger gestured that he was busy signing books. DS looks around casually around the room mumbling to himself that "he didn't think Tiggers really could bounce". Tigger, hearing that, layed his book and pen down, picked up my DS and "bounced" him around the room.

have to bump this one

[pearlieq]

We were at La Nouba last year, and we got the most hilarious commentary from two elderly couples behind us. We still laugh about it to this day!

Highlights:

"It's just like the circus"
"Yeah, but without the animals"
(okaaay....)

"Hey, here comes a guy with boxes"
"I bet he's in the show"
(nothing gets by you...)

Okay, this was not at WDW, but about it. And I heard it tonight, from my pizza guy (PG).

Picking up pizza, charge with my Disney Visa.

PG: Hey, all right! Dissneeeyy! Gotta rack up those Disney miles, right?

(Disney miles, what? But whatever, so...)

Me: Yep, I just made 14 cents on this purchase.

PG: Yeah, all right! If you bought a couple hundred of these, you could, like, stay at the All Star Music, or something!

(Actually, to be mathematical, I would make $28, but who's really counting? Man, 200 pizzas gets me $28? I just depressed myself.)

Me: Yeah, I guess we could, but it's not really our favorite resort. We'll probably do something else this trip. But everything helps toward tickets, right?

PG: Yeah, I know what you mean. My favorite resorts are the Contemporary, the Grand Floridian (and yes, he's a pizza guy. Perhaps I'm overtipping?), and wait, what's that other one? You know, the big lodge? By the Animal Kingdom? You know, you know, that big lodge by the Animal Kingdom. What's that called again?

Hmmm. I...don't...know... that's a toughie. The big lodge by the Animal Kingdom. I'll have to get back to you on that one.

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

BTW, I'm really not nearly as snotty as this makes me sound, it just struck me as really funny.

And if you're having trouble with the answer, I'm sure you can post here and someone will help you. :flower:

The first thing that popped into my head was JAY WALKING on Jay Leno. When the question has the answer in it, and Jay keeps repeating over and over the answer, that's in the question...and the person never gets it. :earboy2:

At AKL following Tarzan rocks we overheard a fellow saying "I look like that (about Tarzan)" To which his girlfriend replied "you did look like HER (Jane)"
He looked rather irritated by the comment but my family found it quite hilarious!!!
