Funniest comments you've overheard in WDW

[Mykelogan]

Two trips back when traveling with friends were doing Disney in late July, aka it was insanely hot every day. I was wearing a pair of linen shorts and we had gone through many of the misters set up around the Animal Kingdom earlier in the day. Damp & overheated we decided to head to MGM. Upon arrival we went right to the RNR. Getting off of the ride vehicle my shorts got snagged on a piece of metal and being damp easily ripped right down the middle. The very helpful CM at the ride got me a handful of baby pins from her own bag so I could do a quick jury rigging in the nearest restroom. Being as discreet as I could, quite embarassed that I was "exposed", I made my way quickly to the restroom and began using the mirror to help me place the pins. A little boy and his dad exited a stall while I was doing so and the little boy immediately saw what I was doing and said, "Holy crap! That is a big rip in your shorts!" The father admonished his son's language but we did all share a chuckle as I said, "Yes, you are indeed correct." The little boy then said, "Isn't your mommy here to help you with that? Do you want me to get my mommy?" I thanked him and said no, and they left. As we were staying offsite and using the hotel's lackluster transportation we knew we would lose the rest of the day if we left, so I secured my shorts, untucked my t-shirt, and no one was the wiser as to what had occurred. I felt very crafty in my recovery. About an hour later we were in line for Tower of Terror and who is about 5 people ahead of us, my bathroom friends. Seeing me the little boy yells down the line "Hey mister, I hope that you got that big hole in your shorts fixed ok!" hehehe

I wrote about this in my 2003 trip report, but it seems appropriate to include here:

My mom (CDoobee) planned a surprise quick trip for me, my DSis (CDoobeeJr.), and herself, to celebrate CDoobeeJr.'s 12th birthday. One day at EPCOT, CDoobeeJr. and I were making our way back through Future World, toward the buses, so we could head back to the resort (ASMu), where we were meeting back up with CDoobee. It started to rain a bit, but it was just a drizzle, so we weren't too worried, although the wind was picking up. I use a motorized wheelchair, so I thought we should try to hurry it up a little, as I didn't want to get my chair soaked before we made it to the buses. The rain was still a drizzle, but just as we started past the big fountain, a huge gust of wind blew in, and what felt like the entire contents of the fountain dumped directly on our heads!! We screamed and started running, but it's a big fountain and it just kept dumping on us, about 3 more times, until we managed to get well past it. Finally, we stopped and just looked at each other, and we both looked like we'd just jumped in the pool with our clothes on. That's when CDoobeeJr., completely deadpan, said, "Yeah, it's kinda like that."

We were on a WDW bus from MGM to TTC one day. This lady gets on in the front, very loudly walks up to the driver and says "Is this bus goin' to Disney World" in this southern drawl... The driver kept trying to explain "Disney World" was the whole complex, but she didn't want to hear it, I'm sure she was looking for MK, but who knows...

First Post!!

Last October as I a was leaving Magic Kingdom (where you can see tomorrow land) I overheard a conversation that went like this.

Women 1-"Look it's Downtown Disney"
Women 2-"Where is it"
Women 1-"Look strait ahead its right there"
Women 2-"I see it"

How could you mistake Tomorrow Land and Downtown Disney

Maybe they thought Space Mountain was the La Nouba tent?

When we brought my 6 year old niece last year and she always wanted to go back to the "hoe n tell" to swim.

When we lived in Calif., Dh (then my dbf) and I took his visiting brother and his girlfriend to Disneyland for their first trip ever. We were in Haunted Mansion and when the lights went out in the elevator, they seemed to be out for a bit longer than usual (we had gotten stuck on three rides that day by now!) -- all of a sudden you hear in a loud voice, "Hey, don't touch me there!" It was so funny, everyone started cracking up... well, it was my dh's brother... of course!

He was also caught in a "gun fight" during POTC when we got stuck on that one... right under the guy shooting his gun... "Yo Ho Yo Ho "pow" A Pirate's Life For Me!" rang through our ears for 20+ minutes (and the rest of the day by then!)... well he started a "gun fight with the little kids behind us to amuse himself. They played back of course.

Even then, I knew his behavior was a bit over the top, but now that I have my own kids... well, you can't pick your family right?! Just gotta love 'em!

when we went, we were riding a bu to the MK and this woman was asking if the bus went to Universal. The driver kept telling her that disney and Universal weren't together but she just got mad and asked to see the supervisor! LOL!

Not really funny but very cute (and soooo true):

We took DGD, 3 1/2 (and her parents, and DSIL and her husband and their two kids) to the MK in Dec. 2003. It was a beautiful, warm sunny morning when we arrived. There were characters everywhere, and that beautiful Christmas tree just as you enter the park. Our plan had been to head to Fantasyland first, but DGD insisted on taking the train ride around the park first, and couldn't be talked out of it. We got on the train, and she looked around very seriously. Finally, she said "Grandma, I really think I'm a bit overwhelmed. This is just way too much fun for little kids. Maybe it should be for grownups only!"

Now, fast forward to yesterday afternoon. We were talking about the fact that she has her first (and second) loose tooth. She got that big grin and said "Grandma, now I'm all grown up. Take me back to Disney World!" I guess I'd better start saving those pennies!

THAT IS TOO CUTE!!!! I love that story

When my husband and I were eating at Pecos Bill we had a table of kids sitting behind my husband ( their parents were sitting at the table next to them)
We also had a family ( mom, dad,2 sons maybe 4 and 2) sitting next to my DH.
Now, The kids sitting behind him were the most well behaved children I have EVER seen in my life (a little scary even) The table next to us had the poor young parents trying to control their two screaming , unhappy two boys.
At one point the man leaned over to us, pointing at the table of "Stepford children" and asked... " are they yours?" We told him No. He then says" oh, because I was going to ask you how you did that" We laughed and then he asked the parents of the children... "PLEASE, I'm begging you, we Need to know how you did that!!" The mom sat there nodding her head.

I was riding in DL the GBR and these boys were in it with me maybe 12ish and they were standing up w/o there seat belts and I was arguing with them that they should where them, then on the waterfall they almost fell out

 

[marypops!]

not something asomeone said but on our 1st visit we were offsite and my dad put salt on his cornflakes

 

[jiggerj]

I had some people that I knew that just came back from the World and I asked her which parks she went to.
"Oh we went to Animal House"
"Do you mean Animal Kingdom?"
"Yes thats it"
"Did you see its tough to be a bug?"
"Whats that? You can go inside that tree thing?!"
"Did you go to Magic Kingdom?"
"Whats that?"
"The park with the big Castle"
"I think so we went on the Space Invaders ride"
"Do you mean Space Mountain?"
"I guess so"
"Did you use Fastpass?"
"Yes we did and it stinks! We were on the other side of the park when it was our time to go on. They really should fix that so that you are right there when its your time"

I gave up at that point and called a diser friend who would understand the humor!

I'll share one at my own expense to help keep this thread chugging along. My mom was buying a Grumpy shirt for my dad and I began discussing with her which dwarf each of my family members was most like. When it got to picking out a dwarf that I was most like I decided I was a bit of Sleepy and Sneezy, so as I tried to tell my mom that I'd be a "combination of Sleepy and Sneezy" all that came out of my mouth was that "I'd be Sleezy." My mom was a little shocked, but other people seemed to get a kick out of it. So I'm now known as Sleezy the eighth dwarf

 

[champagnegirl26]

BUMP!!!

 

[iluvdisnee]

Dont know if I'd consider this "Funny" but more embarressing for the person who said it! This was at MCO on our way home from a trip. The ticket agent asked the lady next to me if she had a good trip and they lady said " Oh it was anice trip, you know, EVERY parent has to take the kids to Disney at some point, I just cant believe people would actually get MARRIED there, I saw brides and grooms everywhere". I was standing next to her and I happened to have been married at WDW and said " OH REALLY? I was married at Walt Disney Word, It was one of the prettiest weddings ever". I'm SURE she felt very embarressed. You wonder what would make someone pick on people and where they choose to get married. I hate it when people have the attitude of "Oh we have to take the kids to Disney". LOL We have 2 kids now and you know what its more like "We have to take OURSELVES to Disney...the kids can come along, LOL"
