>> Funniest Overheard Comments Part II <<

[wswhorselover]

I have 3, some are overheard and some are things that just happened. My school music department went down to perform February '07.

1)My best friend and I are coming around the castle from Fantasyland when we hear the music for Dream Along with Mickey. We start running so we can see it and as we go we hear these two random guys go, "There's no running in Disney! You need a permit to do that!"

2)We went on the Haunted Mansion and weren't expecting the lights to go out in the stretch room. When they did we both screamed and grabbed for each other. You guessed it, she grabs me almost inappropriately. The joke still to this day is that it was like she was doing the pledge of allegiance on me.

3)We went on IASW and some kids from school ended up in the row behind us on our boat. The guy starts singing along in perfect pitch, just being completely ridiculous and his other friend just put in her headphones and went to sleep on the side of the boat. Maybe you had to be there, but we couldn't stop laughing!

Mom & I were in Haunted Mansion in the stretching room. It got to the part where you get the thunder & lightning, and then the lights went out. When the lights went out, there was a bunch of yelling, gaspsing, etc, and I felt someone grab onto my arm. When the the lights came back on, there was a little girl, about 7 or so, hanging onto my arm. She looked up, and then gasped (all embarassed!) and said "Oh!! I'm sorry-I thought you were my mom!!! I laughed and said "oh, that's okay!" (I didn't mind being a momentary substitute!)

Too cute!

We had a similar experience with my son while waiting in line for the cars for Tomorrowland Speedway shortly before he was two. We were moving up slowly in the line and he had moved a bit too close to the family in front of us. Without looking up, he wrapped his arms around (he thought!) his dad's legs.

Meanwhile, that family also had a boy, probably about three or four, who was resentful of my son's intrusion on his dad so he started trying to push my son off his dad's leg. My son was startled but (since he has two older brothers! ), started pushing back. Meanwhile, both boys are looking to their parents for help and can't understand why we're all laughing so hard!

Eventually my son looked up, realized it WASN'T his dad and ran to me and buried his face in my shoulder. He didn't even want to get in and ride once we got to the front because he was so upset. Of course the rest of us thought it was hilarious!

Last trip there was a lady getting out of the Soarin' line, telling the rest of her group she would meet them by "the giant swing" in the middle of the park. I can't even imagine what she meant!

Oh I have another one, unfortunately said by me. Keep in mind I hadn't been to Disney since I was 3 and was also deliriously ill at the time. We're riding on the monorail from TTC to MK and as we pass by the semi-demolished North Garden Wing of the Contemporary I sat "Oh that must be the military resort" Oops..didn't occur to me until much later that the express monorail doesn't even go by Shades of Green

You just reminded me of a funny story about my grandmother. This isn't really Disney related, but it is a funny story. When my father was just a kid his mother would sometimes stand behind him as they were waiting for something and rub his ears from behind. Apparently my father liked this. Anyway, my grandmother was standing in a long line at the post office once and started rubbing my father's ears as he stood in front of her. After a few minutes she suddenly realized that this was the middle of the afternoon and my father was still in school... she looked a little closer and realized that she was rubbing the ears of a short man who she had never seen before in her life. She leaned forward and apologized to him and he just said "It's OK lady, it felt pretty good".

Speaking of grandmothers, here's another one that just happened with my wife's grandmother. Her grandparents had never been to Disney before and they're down in FL for a while, so we decided to take them a few times. Her grandmother was really excited about going to Epcot with the flower and garden festival and all, but we wound up taking them to the AK and the MK before we went to Epcot. They were much less excited about those parks (although they did have a great time there).

We rented wheelchairs for the grandparents and my wife was pushing her grandmother into the park through the bag check line at the MK when the guard called out to her grandmother, "Ma'am... excuse me, Ma'am." My wife stopped pushing the wheelchair and her grandmother looked up at the guard who said, "Smile Ma'am, you're in the Magic Kingdom." Her grandmother just looked at the guard and said sourly, "I wanted to go to Epcot." The poor guard wasn't quite sure what to say and everyone around just started snickering seeing this poor old lady getting wheeled into the Magic Kingdom against her will.

A few years ago, we were trying to find a good spot to watch "Wishes" and overheard a woman telling her crying son "I told you, we can see fireworks anywhere, so we aren't going to waste time watching them at Disney World...let's go."


Kinda strange, right?

I kind of agree with her. I've never camped out for fireworks. I also never watched a parade. We always used that time to walk onto rides with little to no wait while everyone was crowding the hub. Now, if I had a kid that wanted to see them, I would put their wishes first and would watch them, but personally, I don't have much interest in them, not even when I was a kid.

On the bus to Magic Kingdom:

Dad: We'll ride Peter Pan's Flight

Daughter: What's that?

Dad: It's like Dumbo.

Well it is like Dumbo . . . in that they are both rides at the Magic Kingdom.

My sister and I were at the library in ToT waiting for it to start. It was dead quiet, and then all of a sudden a little boy said loudly, "Is this the lift?" I had to stifle a laugh. The way he said was just so funny.

 

[Scoobmuzic]

Oh I just recalled one I heard at Star Wars Weekend.

I was walking past where the line was quite long for pics and autographs with Chewbacca & Ewok. They were on a break and the lady walking in front of me asked someone in line what they were all waiting for. He said "Chewbacca" the lady turned to her companion and said "who's Chewbacca?" I know everyone hasn't seen Star Wars but Come On. You are in DHS during SWW.

Was he British? Because that is what they call elevators across the pond..LOL so that might be what he meant

The funniest thing I hear is..OMG It is hot here..OMG these lines are so long..OMG I wonder what is taking so long etc! Those are the ones that make me laugh the most.
I guess it is hot and it is crowded but why complain about it?Nobody told you to take vacation in Florida ... your choice so don't complain.
No matter what anyone tells you there isn't a big weather control center located in Cinderella's Castle!
