Cheerleaders Gone Wild?

[WEDWDW]

I keep seeing reports the the High School Cheerleaders have been completely running amok the last 2 days since their comp ended.

Worst behavior ever.

Anyone there now with a report?

The reports make The 15s seem tame by comparison! lol

We went one year during cheer and it was mayhem, swarms of loud teens everywhere. Yes, I get they are young but the chaperones never told them to zip their mouths, they seemed to think everyone loves to hear cheerleaders shout out loud, this is not true. After that experience I always looked it up and booked around the competitions. Closing my eyes I can still hear the echos walking through Soarin' where I pulled the CM aside and begged them to either squeeze us into a non cheer ride rotation or let the squad go in front of us, anything to make it stop they kindly obliged.

I've been during cheer competitions and haven't really had that experience. I'd see them at the resort practicing or whatever - if you are at the All-Stars or Pop, expect this. In the parks though, I never noticed much. There might be the ocassional shouting cheer, but nothing too obtrusive. I did see a group once try to do a lift in front of the castle for a photo - a CM shut it down real fast! I am sure one's mielage can vary and if you are in the wrong place at the wrong time you may encounter an incosiderate group. If that happens a few times, you might think that all the groups are like that - they are not though.

In the Soarin' queue - yeah, that would be quite loud and annoying. It's pretty echoey in there!

Been at hotels with them both and I don't think it's possible for them to be worst than what I've experienced with the 15s.

Parks .... if they were cheering, especially if competing with a group of 15s, could be nightmarish.

I was in the parks this past weekend and didn't notice bad behavior. The weekend before was terrible with large groups being very rude. So YMMV based on where you are and when.

I remember taking my Mom to Disney several years ago, as she was elderly we always came back to the resort in the early evening, had a quick dinner at the food court (Port Orleans Riverside) and went to our room so she could watch Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy. We had a courtside view and every evening the cheerleaders would practice. It usually went on for a couple hours and got annoying pretty quickly. Never really noticed anything annoying or obnoxious in the parks though.

They started a cheer in FOP que, CM's shut it down quick, very annoying, lots of herds at AK yesterday

They ought to move these cheerleading events outside of Disney and much much closer to home. If they can’t handle themselves in Disney, they don’t deserve to go.

GOOD! When DD worked there she used to shut them down. She worked at Soarin' and did not put up with any of it.

Speaking of cheerleaders ; has anyone watch the TV sitcom Stumble. It's hilarious!

The contract between Varsity and Disney expires soon and some think things have gotten so bad that Disney may not renew similar to the Pop Warner situation.

There is ZERO chance Disney will not renew.

ESPN Wide World of Sports is basically ESPN Wide World of Cheer and Dance when it comes to revenue.

The new venue at ESPN Wide World of Sports,The Arena,is an 8,500 seat venue that is the first of its kind to be built specifically for Cheer and Dance comps!

Mickey loves them(and their Cheese!lol)!

My sister was at Universal this weekend and said it was packed on Sunday at islands as cheerleaders were competing there so it wasn’t just isolated to WDW. They had the express pass because they stayed at portofino and she said the lines for express were crazy long too.
