Anyone ever have problems with line cutters at USF or IOA?

Barry, thats a good one!


My best friend in school and I had our own system when people bothered us back in the day... we both knew sign language, and would sign to each other... (never mind we were just doing the alphabet to each other, and word like "play" and "love")


It would get obnoxious guys away at the time.. .wonder if that would work with line cutters.....

Or Barry, you could act like a Angry Chinese person and yell at them in chinese for even considering such a thing. Now that would be a site to see. hehehehe

My husband was impatiently waiting for my daughter who had waist length hair at the time to have her hair wrap finished in the Lost Continent. Finally he gave me a disgusted sigh and told us to find him in the line at Posiedon's Fury. Well with my daughter behind me and my 2 year old on my hip, I ventured into what has to be referred to Hell Hath no fury like a waiting theme park attraction crowd. NEVER AGAIN will I subject myself or my kids to the horrible remarks, rude comments, foul language, evil dagger looks, not to mention the 250+ 6'5'' giant that physically tried to restrain my daughter once I passed. I had no idea that I was pulling a taboo among theme park ettiquete (sp?). I was REALLY just trying to catch up with my husband. The experience was like walking through the bowels of HELL. Let's just say that by the time I reached him, he was really close to the front of the line and by that time all of that public humiliation and outcry me and my kids were subjected to made me want to strangle him. It was one hell of a lesson to learn the hard way.

Sorry to hear that your DH caused you such aggrivation, pain, torment, and embracement. But I understand about wanting to catch up with your family.

One thing I have learned about going to any themepark, is that you need great patience. If I had been you, I would have waited until the show was over for him to come out. Being a large individual I would not have bothered trying to pass every one in the line. Such a thing would only increase my embracement.

Dr. Doom--I was directed to a loading area. There were already a few guys there. The CM came by a few minutes later and wanted to know why we didn't go on the ride, we told her there were already people waiting. I didn't realize until later but I'm sure those people had gotten off the ride and was riding it again.

Great story, thanks for sharing.
What I do to solve this problem is split up for a few hours and set up a meeting spot. Wife takes kid, they do the hair thing and shop for souvineers. I slam a few drinks, ride the coasters, find them a few hours later, and everyone is happy.

Has anyone seen the movie "Invasion of the Body Snatchers"? When there is line cutting, everyone should point the finger and sound the alarm. It might take more than one person or family to confront line cutters, they should be stopped from the back first.
