13 minute standby?

[kamik86]

Actually I was hoping to get some more ideas from the folks here on Dis because we plan to do it again next trip. So I will share a partial list and if you want, please add your ideas: These were the most challenging to find:

A posted wait time over 100 mins
A posted wait time of 13 mins
A Disney bus with a character name on it
A CM from CT (our home state) - the CM's loved participating taking the pics.
A guest with a Disney tattoo. Harder one to get the pic
A person wearing the classic Mickey ears
A person wearing a UConn t-shirt (Go Huskies!!)
A person wearing a Universal t-shirt
A kid on a leash

What other ideas do you have??

A more open ended but fun one would be CMs from as many different countries as you can manage.
I forget the name but a pic with the robotic trash can in tomorrowland

Speaking about CM's being where you're from..One time a year or two ago we were on the jungle cruise. I happened to look at the CM's nametag that was on the boat and it happened to be from where we're from which is Fort Myers. He made some small talk and started telling a few jokes then asked a couple people where they were from. He was shocked when he pointed to me and I said the same city he was from lol. Small world

His name was PUSH but he's no longer in the park

We always take pictures with CMs that have the same name as us.
What about a couple in bride/groom ears?

This was the first trip I saw HM at a 10 minute wait, most of the time they use the 13 minute time, which is more fun in my opinion!

if you ever see me there feel free to come up to me nd ask to take a pic of my disney tattoos

The interaction with other guests was part of the fun. You should see the pic my wife got of a girl with the Castle on her arm. Great tattoo!! She loved showing it off.

Sorry, I sorta highjacked this thread. But if you have other ideas for the list, keep them coming!!

We also had a second contest which was equally as fun: Who can get the most selfie’s with characters…

It was a blast. We met more characters this trip than all my 25+ previous trips combined!! A character was defined as any Disney Cast Member in character not just meet and greets so it included (but not limited to) the citizens of Hollywood, dapper dans, other main street characters, storm troopers, jawas, those goofy Norsemen in Norway, Devine, etc.

But both contests worked better for us because we have older kids and friends with us so the whole group was not together all the time.

Anyway, here is the rest of the list. These were all pretty easy to find. I was the only one in our group to get all 14...

A family wearing matching t-shirts
A tour group leader holding a flag
A bibbidi bobbidi boutique princess
A person reading a park map
A person eating a turkey leg

One time during a rain storm, the wait at It's a Small World was "H20". I don't know why there would be an "H" in the standby timer, but it was pretty clearly H20.

A selfie while sitting in your own spot on an actual bench.

I've definitely seen the 13 minute post at Haunted Mansion...I always assumed because its considered an unlucky number.
