I am TERRIFIED to meet gaston

Totally understand this one. I was terrified to meet him and I basically couldn't think of anything to say when I did.

Do you have any photos of this? Would love to see it.

This is one i got last time:

When we were kids we came back to the room once to find all our soft toys watching TV with the remote in one of their hands

My wife was at first, but watched him with others and said what the heck. When he found out it was her birthday and she didn't have her pin on, he took her on a tour around the area telling everybody she was "21" and then went into the store to get a pin for her. It was hysterical.

My husband and I went to the Epcot After Hours Wind Down when they had it summer of 2014. It was June. Our kids were with us, but they are old enough to be in the room by themselves. He and I went to Tutto Italia lounge and it was wonderful! We met a terrific couple who was sitting at the table next to us. We chatted the entire time and they bought a bottle of wine which they shared with us. It was so nice! The funny part is that the man looked so much like Kevin James! (mall cop) We got photos with them and when we saw our kids we showed them the pics and told them we met and hung out with Kevin James. They were starstruck! They believed it! All 3! To this day, they still bring up the day when Mom and Dad met Kevin James. :rolleyes1

I've already picked my outfit for MNSSHP when I go in 2017 :hyper:

Neat thread!

1. Worked in an office where WDW was not a popular discussion. Now work in a Disney infested office, much happier!
2. So much fun when you encounter another guy who gets it, they are usually a DVC owner like me.
3. Love Epcot and the Rose and Crown, especially Carl.
4. Thrill of my Disney life, meeting and talking to Karl Holtz, Disney Cruise Lines CEO on the Dream.
5. I also am tired of Fantasmic, Illuminations and Hollywood Studios, which needs a major face lift!

I hate the current incarnation of Illuminations. I much prefer the original recipe when the showcases were part of the performance.

(I was going to reveal something else but that's not the type of shameful Disney secret this thread is referring to!)

My least favorite meet and greet was with Mickey.

Don't know if it counts as a secret or just a fun story, but if I am soloing the parks I am known to talk to other guests... with various accents. To the Texans I am british, the Brits think I am texan, I don't know why I do it, but it is amusing to me for some stupid reason.

I don't like seeing Stitch sad. Especially seeing him breakdown in Stitch Has A Glitch.

To be such a classic attraction, I find the Country Bear Jamboree to be uncomfortable and awkward... especially when they sing "blood on the saddle".

Awwww.....I love that song! No trip to MK is complete unless I hear Big Al sing "Blood on the Saddle." We went during a Christmas holiday once and he "sang" a completely different song...I was so disappointed.

That is amazing. Next time my niece visits I will make sure she brings all of her Disney plushies with her.

This isn't shameful at all, but it is a secret...

When I went into Space Mountain in 2007, the first time I had been to DW since my mom passed away, I started crying hearing the "Star Tunnel" music. SM was my mom's favorite ride and when I was little I remember us going on over and over again while my dad took my little sister on It's a Small World...and she LOVED the music when we'd walk through the Q. The music now only plays briefly when you first walk into the tunnel...but that music, and the memory of my mom, got to me. My ex didn't see it happen and by the time we caught up with the crowd I was able to control myself...but I felt my mom's spirit.

As for a "shameful" secret? I've probably been to DW 10 times in my life and I STILL have never done Dumbo, Aladdin or Astro Orbiter...and I REALLY did not like the "Finding Nemo" show at AK.

ShenRidge · Jul 21, 2015

It's a small world, splash mountain and country bear jamboree all give me the creeps. Also, I find the parades boring

I have very special memories of riding Space Mountain with my Dad. He died when I was young, but to this day my sisters and I still repeat the mantra he taught us while waiting in line (to overcome our fear of riding SM): "I am Luke Skywalker! I am Luke Skywalker!"

One of my Disney Secrets up until a couple years ago was also never having ridden Astro, but I finally did and it was great! It seems more dangerous somehow than Dumbo or Carpets, probably partially because its higher and partially because your rocket kind of tilts to the side. It caught me by surprise and I laughed the whole ride! Also a sight to see was my sister and I sitting in the same rocket (we're both grown and didn't know it probably wasn't ideal to sit two adults in one rocket).

I wouldn't stay at the Wilderness Lodge again even if it was free. I'd love that resort if it was anywhere else in the world, but when I'm in Florida, I want to see palm trees.

I'm terrified of AAs and I would rather sit out a ride than sit alone in a ride vehicle, without a family member right next to me. One day I'll do a solo trip and not ride a single thing! :duck:

Haven't had a chance to read all through this, but here's mine.
I REALLY miss Tapestry of Nations parade, especially the music.

IvyWinter · Aug 3, 2015

I really don't get the big deal about Soarin' I find it kind of...borin' (ha, rhyming) :-/

I've also never been on astro orbiter, but im going to change that next trip!
