Last February, we were watching the MK fireworks from the Poly beach. DH and I were on one of the bench swings near the walkway. As the fireworks are going off over the castle, a man and his young son were strolling behind us on the walkway. "Look!" the man says to his son, "The Epcot fireworks are going off." The son says, "Dad, I think that's the Magic Kingdom over there." The dad says, "No, no...it's Epcot!" Now, mind you...you can clearly see the fireworks going off over THE CASTLE! We just giggled to ourselves!

My favorite, was one we heard MANY times. Seems like every time we were in the Fast Pass line, I would overhear people in the other lines saying,"that's only for resort guests". Hello???Didn't anybody read ANY info before going to the parks,or at least watch the FREE planning video?

When my DGF and I were in line to check in for our priority seatings at the Liberty Tree Tavern a couple came out looking upset. the wife said to the husband. "SEE I told you we should have stayed at one of the hotels. We could have gotten all kinds of PRIORITY SEATINGS INSTEAD OF WAITING IN THESE HUGE LINES".....I didn't have the heart to tell her that anyone can make priority seatings (she probably cold have called right then and made one for ten minutes later seeing it was January 10)

These are hilarious. Ok I've got one as well.

A few trips ago, likely some time in 2002 or 2003 my family and I were walking through Epcot and there was a family parked on a bench discussing what they had done for the day and what they would do tomorrow. I have a serious pet peeve when people call Disney rides by the wrong names, I mean there are GREAT BIG SIGNS in front of all the rides AND they are listed in the guide maps. So the conversation went something like this...

Dad: "Ok so now we are in the park with the Big Golf Ball...I dont get why its a golf ball because there isn't any golf here...and the ride IN the golf ball isn't about golf either!"

Mom: "Just like there wasn't a ride IN the Castle at Disneyworld this morning. Though that Splash Flume was great and so was Thunderstorm Mountain!"

Daughter: "So where are we going tomorrow?"

Dad: "Either the park with the big blue hat or the one with the tree. The Tower of Fear and the Aerosmith Coaster are at the one with the blue hat so I'd say there"

My parents and I had to contain ourselves from laughing until we got further away from this poor confused family.

After being searched at the airport in Portland, Me, the guard found my flask with Scotch, and told me that there was a "no open container" rule at that airport. This was with a year after 9/11, and there was a national Guardsman standing a post near by, and he asked him to escort me to the bathroom to dispose of my beverage in the sink. In a kind attempt to eleviate my embarisment, not to mention my intimidation by the automatic riffle he was carrying, he asked me where I was going. When I told him DW, he pointed out that there are bars there. I pointed out that there was no alcohol sold in MK. At that he exclaimed; "no alcohol in magic Kingdom...how magic can it be!"

Tower of Fear...

 

[kennancat]

From a woman to her friend as they walked into the Tower of Terror vehicle:
"Don't be silly, it's not going to drop"

Boy was she surprised

I posted this message on the DVC Community Board, so forgive me if you've read it before, but I think it applies.

True scenario (and not just once):

We're ...just... late to get a bus to the MK (we're at POR). We wait 15 minutes and now we're behind schedule.

Our entourage of 15 piles in.

The awfully friendly driver says "Nex' 'top, de Magic Kingdaum."

We race off , to the children's delight and my DGMiL's horror.

She immediately jerk-grabs at a leaning rail, or my knee.

She says in shock (for the thousandth time in her life), "I know there's a speed limit in this place."

We careen around corners and almost take out the security booth between Bonnet Creek Golf and Fort Wilderness. Everyone else on the bus is abuzz with excitement. DGMiL is hyperventilating and mumbling to no one in particular about the CDL certification system in Florida.

We arrive at the park and get out.

A friendly ticket taker at the turnstiles asks us, "How is your morning?"
and my DGMiL's reply, "We d@*n near died!"

Beautiful....just like clockwork.

Later, a bunch of us were on a late night bus back from a partying escapade at PI. Needless to say, the alcohol had flowed freely. We starting recollecting things our DGiL has said in her life and my wife said that on her tombstone we would have to inscribe the phrase, "D@*n near died." To which her 21 year old cousin and sponsor of the night's activities said, "No, it'll have to say, 'D@*n near lived!"
LOL
LOL
LOL
LOL
......a huh, a huh, a well, I guess you had to be there.

 

[MrTerrorChair]

Ok I've got three I can think of.


2. Actually this was at the disney store, around christmas time. A little boy was telling his parents which of the toys he wanted and he, really loudly saud "I want a little Buzz and a big Woodie," and this lady across the store under her breath said "don't we all."

3. we were with some of our friends at future world in epcot, and we took a bathroom break. There were a group of school kids there, probably around 5th graders about 12 years old, and so the bathroom was really busy with all these boys and there was a bit of a wait in the common area around the sinks. From one of the stalls, one of the kids, trying to impress his friends, was doing a really amazing, and very loud, Austin Powers imitation of "Whose the boss of #2" with some incredible sound effects. The really funny part was that all of us adults (strangers) were looking at each other in the eye and biting our lips saying to ourselves "I will not laugh at 12-year-old boy potty humor, I will be a good example." I guess you had to see the faces of everybody trying not to laugh to get it.

Stop!! This thread can end now!!

These two are the winners. (I'm going to get fired for laughing so hard.)

 

[gabbygrennell]

I have been roflmao while reading all of these!
Great topic!!
To this day, we laugh about this! We were at Blizzard Beach. In line for teamboat springs, we are getting our ds, 4 excited, trying to keep him from being scared.
We all get in the raft, he is across from us. As we go down the first dip, he looks absolutely terrified! Trying not to laugh, my hubby and I are saying oh this is so fun isnt it nicholis? etc... he looks at us and while his face is still the perfect picture of terror, he says calmly but definitely not calm "Yeah, fun whee". His comment was so filled with fear it was hilllarious! His little voice even cracked on the whee!
Now as we get ready for this trip he is a big man now (6) and can't wait to go on that fun ride! lol!

OMG.....I thought I was going to die when I read this. Too funny !!!!!

 

[areno79]

Well, this was something I heard, actually my husband said it. He wanted SO badly to ride the train around MK, and just relax. So, we get in line for the "train"...which I knew was actually Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, but he had NO idea So we're standing in line, and there are these kids, maybe 6 or 7 in line behind us. They're talking about how scared they are, and DH finally picks up that it's a roller coaster (he's a big baby). All of a sudden, he starts freaking out and in a high pitch little girl's voice, DH screams in panic "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!"
Needless to say, the little kids behind us got out of line fast...although DH still had to go on the ride with me

Not specifically *hahaha* funny ... but kind of funny in a sweet way and it melted my heart ...

Last time I was at Disney was in 1997 very early in my pregnancy with my daughter. As my hubby and I waited in a long slow line for a ride with my (then) 6 year old son, a little girl a bit younger than my son nudged her mom and said with a bit of petulant awe ... "Mom, it *IS* her! She just doesn't have her Snow White clothes on ... "

I wasn't 100% sure what was going on and I tried not to eaves drop ... but eventually the little girl and my son started talking and I smiled at the mom and she then whispered to me that her daughter thought I was Snow White!

I didn't know what to say ... I was flattered (though thoroughly confused) and I truly hoped the mom and dad weren't thinking "Oh my goodness, my child is nuts!" I do have dark hair with bangs ... and I did have a white bow in my not-quite-shoulder-lenght hair ... and pale skin and blue eyes ... but I think that's about where the similarities end!

Through the eyes of a child ...

I was resort hopping and was ending my day at the Key West resort. I was in the ladies room, when a mom and her older daughter (in her 30's) came in. Just as soon as the door shut, mom could not stop complaining about the place. The tickets to the parks were to much, the food was to high; could they find a place to eat somewhere else besides the hotel, or the parks. And the reason the CM at the frount desk could not give them a good map of the area (not just the parks) is because they were suppose to stay on property and pay the high prices to eat there, etc... But the thing that stands out, were the towles at the pool.

Mom had just thrown a hissy because they had forgotten their towels in their room, and they would have to go back and get them. The daughter said that they didn't have to go back to their rooms for towels because the hotel had some there by the pool that they could use. And the first thing out of mom's mouth was "HOW MUCH ARE THEY CHARCHING TO RENT THE TOWELS!" Daughter very nicely said,"I THINK THEY ARE FREE TO USE." Then mom, "THEY BETTER BE FREE! FOR THE AMOUT THEY ARE CHARGING US TO STAY HERE!!"

It took everything I had not to bust out laughing, while I was listing to this. Here is this poor daughter trying to have fun while in the Happiest Place on Earth, and mom was bringing her down.

This thread is quickly becoming my favorite! Great stories!

 

[Immelman]

yesterday at bag search at MK, a woman behind us asked if this is where they took the tickets. my wife said, "no, this is where they search your bags". the woman turned PURE WHITE, her eyes bugged out, and said, 'oh no, I have sandwiches in here, what do you think they'll do to me'?

not too long ago at Universal Studios a guy looking at a map asked me where the tower of terror was. he HATED my answer.

 

[Philadisney]

When I was there in December, I was in the ladies room at the MK, and all the sudden I heard a woman say, "Mmmmm. That smells good." Not something I was expecting to hear in the ladies room.

Karen

that is both hilarious and unexpected!

 

[floridagirrl2]

We were in the bag check line at Epcot this past Saturday, and the guy in front of us asked the security guard if this was the park with Shrek. The guard had to break the news that Shrek is at Universal .

 

[PatriciaH]

Today at AK:

Women looking at her map in frustration "I don't see where we get the monorail from this park."

Older lady on Kilimanjaro Safari after our guide says the female lions do all the hunting "So the female lion eats the male lion? I would think it would be the other way around-he gets very hungry." The guide also said to keep your eyes open for mandrels-they have faces that look like they have paint on. The same woman says "what is that a tribesman?" When we passed the giraffes she also said "how could people kill those" and her grandson said "just shoot them in the heart with a gun." !!! I guess he though she wanted to know HOW to kill them.
