Any Adults Going W/O Children Getting Autographs?

[MinnieMeg]

I often stand in line for autographs. Sometimes I get looks, sometimes not. I just smile and say "Isn't wonderful how (character) appeals to such a wide variety of people." Everyone always agrees with me. Besides these are some of my DH favorite pictures of me. Enjoy yourself.

Gosh! How did I not see this thread sooner?? As for adults getting autographs, I am by far the worst offender here!! Basically all I do is get autographs! Some trips I have nieces/nephews with me, but a majority of the time I am solo in the parks. I love autographs and characters so much that I wrote up an 160 page website dedicated just to them!

I usually never feel too odd getting autographs as an adult, maybe because I am barely taller than the kids so I fit right into any line! But I never felt too weird or anything. My only bad experience is that often people will walk right around me, thinking I am not really in line, that I am just "standing there" or I am with the group in front. I expect the line cutting nowadays, but if I want a character, I will stand my ground and get them!!

If I feel it's necessary, I will tell the character the autograph is for my nephew. That can help break the ice, if that's needed! All adults should get some autographs, if you ask me!

This should not happen. People must understand that just because you're an adult doesn't mean you're not a kid at heart. Why can't we get our pictures with the characters? Why not get autographs? Maybe, like me, the adults never got to WDW as a child and see the characters. Why not now?

To the OP: I recently got into scrapbooking and this gives me a wonderful idea. I'll be getting signatures this December. Thanks!
