The princess event, or Daddy why is that man wearing a wig.
Yes it takes a real man to wear a wig, boa, and tiara, and by golly its true, blondes do have more fun.
Onto the day it was a dark and dreary morning, winds up to 75 miles per hour, small children flying around the park screaming in terror as parents tried to catch them as they landed. Temperatures were in the low 20s with a wind chill facto of 34 degrees.
We got there late because we did not choose the breakfast option. So we strolled in about 8:30AM, we put on our foul weather gear, Donna had her matching firefighter outfit on, she said it kept her warm, me with my scuba gear with matching flippers, my nanook of the north coat, and my camouflage backpack complete with camping gear so there we were looking like poster children for the U.S. Armed services a fire fighter princess, and a Navy Seal Eskimo. (My first clue it would be a weird day, was when someone ran up to me and asked if I had Alaska State pins)
By now a few of the grandkids had crashed landed next to us and we were on our way. We headed into Adventure land to get the pins, when a frantic pintrader comes running back in the opposite direction yelling Mystery pin released at Tinkerbells Treasure Box well as you all know the words Mystery and pin, hold the same value to a pintrader, as struck and oil holds to a Texan.
So off we run to get in line, not off we go to get the pin, because the park is full of pintraders, its get in line and we knew it Yup we get there and there is line, a long one, and its raining its cold so we wait and wait and wait After an hour or so we are so wet we decided to build an ark and load the pintrader two by twos, you see the line goes downhill from the castle so there is now a river flowing down against us, we watch helplessly as small children, cast members, and small furniture flows by, at one point I thought I saw a manatee, but it was a German tourist wearing a gray jumpsuit.
Then after another hour.. SuperTrader Darrin comes out of the castle in his bright cheery little super trader outfit, he is all nice and dry, and has an umbrella large enough to cover a small city in Tokyo, Cheery as a cast member must always be he starts yelling how are you all, and arent we excited to be here So I do the only thing a man in my situation could do, I start chanting Throw him in the moat in the moat in the moat As the wet crowd picks him up someone yells no wait take off his pin vest first, and we all chime in off with his vest off with his vest, then Patrick yells I get his pins, and we chime in again keep his pins keep his pins. Then out of the blue someone yell Erica Erica, we all yell wrong event and threw them in the moat as well.
It was as this time Disney sent out the word that the crowd was getting restless and they came out and gave us all wristbands This excerpt is taken from the Disney how to handle pin crowd control booklet, written by me (yes Im so proud) on page 31 section 2 pin riot in progress, and I quote It seems when a pin trader is agitated the only true way to calm them is to give them a wristband, this assures them that no matter what, they will get a pin But never give more bands out then there are pins or they burn buildings down
Alas this was the case, because I heard they did give out more bands than there were pins, and now I hear WDW announced The Lion King attraction was closing forever today, and the building is somehow mysteriously missing.
But on the real reason why I write, how in the heck did I end up in a wig boa and Tiara. You see I thought I was out of the woods, why it was raining and a few of the boa brigade came walking by claiming that the boas were under their rain tarps. Sure I smiled and off they went, but then something happened Chef Manny who swore up and down that there was no way on this planet he would were a boa, suddenly appeared wearing this striking red number that was to die for, and Michelle his wife had on a stunning boa tiara combo herself (The only answer Michelle his ultra hottie of a wife must have put her foot down, and if all of you knew what this lady is like, you know any man would do anything for her yes she is that good looking!!!)
So not to be outdone by anybody else, since we were finally under a roof, and it was called the boa brigade and Raul, I dug into my pup tent of a backpack and there under my bottle of Brut aftershave, my copy of Tractor pull monthly, my Redman hat, and my #3 Dale Earnhart poster, (all my manly things) I pulled out my Cindy wig, blue boa, and tiara. Secure in my manhood I put this items on, but as I turned around there in front of me was who else, but Jim Green the pin man himself, he smiled and said nothing, but I notice security around the building was doubled they must have know about the wristband thing right?
Amidst the whistles and catcalls, and of the hey Cindy looking good baby, then some clown yells throw her in the moat in the moat in the moat . My own people for crying out loud. I finally make it inside, then the lovely cast member standing there at the door with a clipboard lifts her head and blurts Hi how many in your par .. that was the last thing anybody ever heard her say that day, she kinda just stood there giggling. Then it was off to the counter A little girl comes running up to me holding a snow globe and say mommy can we get this, I smile and say sorry honey Im not your mommy she drops the globe and runs away screaming. (Mind you Manny has somehow lost his boa in the confusion)
On the way out we run into Dana (You know super hottie travel agent Dana, I mean that in a nice way Mr. Dana) She is hot no not in that way, Super mad, seems the person in front of her was the person that got the last wristband, and Im told this is the third time this has happened to her, she is frantically trying to start her Bic lighter (see previous section on fire starting during riots) then looks up sees me and totally understands, she did not get her pin, but me Im paying an even bigger price in life, she puts her lighter away and walks away.
We get the pins and its off to Adventure Land, but Im informed the only way there is to go through the crowd of pintraders still in line of which there are still about 100 of. What the hey, lets do this below are some of the mentionable comments I got during my gauntlet through the line.
You go girl Hey Raul you the man That scuba gear clashes with your tiara dude Ha ha ha ha So did you lose a bet My arent we a pretty princess Hey Cindy you need a shave Hey honey you need a date and hey got milk (Im still working on that one)
On our way there Donna needed to go to the bathroom after all we had been standing in line for what 13 hours or so, so I decided yea well me too Bad idea one for the books gentlemen do not ever go into a mens room wearing a wig, boa, and tiara.
Okay picture this you standing at a urinal and there are what about 30 urinals in a Disney bathroom, and the place is empty so Im thinking hey Im in luck, but the next guy that comes in has to go the one next to you and just keeps staring at you Soooo after 10 seconds of staring, you yell in most manly voice What your problem Dude his answer Im just curious do all the princesses pee standing up? My answer no just me, and Ariel. By now the bathroom is full I just quietly wash my hands while singing the theme song to Rawhide (what the heck I might as well have fun) As I work my way outside I see about 10 women standing there one of them yells OMG its true, of course my lovely wife whom I now need more than ever, has decided this is the day she takes a bath in there and it takes her 45minutes to come out of the bathroom, as I look behind me I notice about 15 men just standing at the mens room entrance just staring, so I figure its time to leave.
Around the corner is a little stand up bar that sells smoothies, as I get there Im looking at the menu when a cast member hands me strawberry smoothie, I look up and say hey I havent ordered anything yet He smiles and says this is from the gentleman at the end of the bar, I just turn in disgust, and yell out what kind of princess do you take me for, I take my drink and go forth looking for my wife who by now has finished her bath, so were off to get our pins.
As I get there Im immediately escorted inside by a very nice cast member who informs me that they heard about me and have been waiting for me. (I think they just wanted me off the streets after all it was still daylight) before I go, I finally meet up with the boa brigade who now have they boy toy (thats me) and want pictures, and as poor Brer Rabbit Aka Michael had to work 15 different cameras, and was shooting away I notice here I was in a wig surrounded by some really good looking ladies, and the rest of the day was pretty much like this so it was not a bad double dog dare after all hee hee.
So some good things, and bad things about dressing up like a princess, and being a blond for a day.
Good things
· Guys kept buying me drinks.
· You get used to little kids yelling look mom its Cinderfella.
· Extra security wherever I went, that was so nice of Disney to do that.
· People kept telling me blond jokes, and some I had not heard before like what do you call 10 blonds standing in a circle . A dope ring. What do get when you get when you put 10 blonds in a freezer . Frosted flakes.
· People kept getting out of our way.
Bad things
· No CTT for me today every time I bent over to show a kid my lanyard, they just screamed and ran away.
· My Granddaughter is mad at me for two reasons #1 she said I was a prettier blond than she was, and #2 the cute boy she met kept talking to me and not her.
· Cant go to a mens room without some sort of altercation happening.
· Your picture will no doubt end up on the Internet.
· People kept pointing and whispering.
So final conclusions
Wig . $11.00, Boa . $5.99, Tiara . $5.99, Going to Disney dressed up like a princess, spending the day with Boa brigade, and my pintrading friends, absolutely priceless. I had blast ladies, whats on for MGM Im game but lets do me in a guy costume this time I need to go to the restroom more than once.
