Have you ever had a shock?

I totally agree that you had a right to be upset but I don't see what the point of doing this was. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Did she block anyone's view or take anyone's seat?

You took the words right out of my mouth.

The gross thing we saw was on Castaway Cay in early May. A very tan man was sleeping on his stomach in the sun with the back of his Speedo pulled down and his very hairy rump hanging out!! This was on the Family Beach!! Yuk!!

I have one!! I just remembered this the other day. My bf and I were sitting in the Pop dining room having breakfast. It was our first trip, we were there for 2 wonderful weeks last November. Anyways, we were seated and a table, and this guy in a cowboy hat walked up to the booth that was behind us. My back was to the booth, and the previous diners had left their trash on the table. So this guy, he proceeds to brush the trash with big swooping arm movements, onto the floor!!! . I mean there were paper cups and trays and all sorts of wrapers and stuff. We I just couldn't believe it!! And so I made a few loud comments, like, what the heck is going on here? I can't believe this and so on, turning around and the guy, well he felt really bad. But only because he thought he had swooped some of the garbage and hit me, which he hadn't. Nope it all made it right onto the carpet, no problem there mister!

See, he didn't think what he did was wrong at all, no no, but he didn't want to hit me with a flying cup or anything. Nice of him I guess, aww . I never did set him straight about the proper place to store the trash. I guess I was in shock!!!

I was thinking the same thing. What was the point in that?

Someone did the same thing to DS and me while we were waiting for Illuminations (which we had managed to miss twice and this was our last chance to see it). We'd staked out lovely seats and had been sitting for an hour, chatting with some nice people from Alabama. All of a sudden, and woman and her child walk IN FRONT of DS at the five minute warning time. DS just looked at me as he now could not see at all, and it was too crowded to move elsewhere. This nice couple next to us (knowing it was the last chance for us to see Illuminations) let DS stand in front of them so that he could see. I was both amazed at the uncouth of the woman who walked her (taller than DS) daughter in front of us, and really touched that the other lady would let DS have her place.

While waiting in line for Philharmagic. We saw a CM with his pants sagging below his butt. It was late and he was cleaning the que area. Not a pretty picture.

A family allowing their 3 kids to rip off Christmas decorations and stick them in their backpacks, totally ruined the beautiful decorations..we told a CM and it was dealt with very discreetly!
I can't believe anyone would allow or encourage this kind of behaviour, my 4 kids and even my DH(who never gets mad about anything) were as shocked and angry as I was!

How sad!

Good for you for telling a CM!

This doesn't compare to many of the things I've read so far but once when I was on Living With the Land (is that right) at Epcot, the family in front of me immediately busted out bags of doritos and other food and passed it around. They crunched, munched and talked the entire way through the ride. Their actions obviously muffed the CM riding in front and narrating the ride as she stumbled over her words and kept looking at them. She didn't say anything though, not sure if there was really anything she could do since we were floating through the ride.

Needless to say, it wasn't a nice ride. All I could hear was Doritos crunching!!

This isn't nearly as bad as the others, but once while my Mom and I were in the stretch room for the Haunted Mansion, a family from England (?) proceeded to talk quite loudly through the whole thing. The family consisted of two parents and a boy and girl (both approx. 7 to 9 years old). The father was trying to scare the kids, "we're going to see ghosts... they're going to pop out at you... it's reallly dark... blah, blah, blah". Nobody could hear the attraction's audio track (the whole "Welcome, foolish mortals..." is one of my favorite parts and all I could hear was these rude people.) When the stretch room opened, the father and son made a run for it, pushing through and getting right in front of me and my Mom. The mother and daughter in the group ended up somewhere behind us. Instead of waiting for the rest of their party, the 'boys' jumped into their Doom Buggy and the 'girls' were about two or three buggies back, with me and Mom being one of the in-betweener buggies. We thought that was the end of the rudeness, but unfortunately every place in the ride where the buggies were side to side (ballroom scene) or facing each other (Madam Leota's seance scene) they proceeded to YELL to each other, "ARE YOU SCARED YET? DID A GHOST GET YA?"
When the ride was over, the 'boys' did wait for the 'girls' and then together pushed past everyone to run out of the exit screaming to each other about what ride to go to next.
For the life of me, I can't understand why half of the party pushed past other guests if they wanted to talk the whole time. We were all going to get on the ride for goodness sakes.

We had a very similar incident last week with a group of "young adults" (late teens / early twenties). They were obnoxiously loud in the stretch room; they pushed and shoved and stepped on my 4 year old (without apology) and made comments about the CM being married to his cousin. When I commented to them that there were children around they just snickered.

Fortunately for me, I've been on the Haunted Mansion several dozen times. So while incredibly rude, the 'family' didn't ruin anything for me. I feel really sorry for anyone in the stretch room who may have been first time guests. They missed one of the best parts of the ride.

This wouldn't be a shock to anyone else but I had a shock last week. I was riding on Tower of Terror solo (my family will not go on it) and was sitting next to complete strangers. A few drops into the ride, I got a big shock when my arm was grabbed and held on to by the terrified lady next to me. It probably scared me more than the rides. I did not expect that!

Me and my boyfriend were at PI one night in Sept. 04. We had bought a couple hotdogs and we found a place to sit inside a building that had dartboards and such since there were no places to sit outside (not to mention it was freakin hot!). So we are sitting at a table looking out on to the sidewalk watching people and eating our food when all of a sudden a guy (probably in his early to mid twenties) goes running down the sidewalk with his pants (and boxers) around his ankles. He completly flashed everyone who was standing there and luckily I only saw his backside but my poor boyfriend got the front as well!! After it happened we both looked at each other and were like OMG! The guy must have been very drunk! We will never forget that moment again!!

That would definately shock me more than anything else I have read on this thread!

I was waiting in the single riders line by myself for Mission:Space at Epcot. I had spoken to the people behind me in the line because they were a bit nervous and I have ridden the ride before. When I was at the front of the line, the call was made for 2 singles to enter the preshow room. I turned to the pair behind me and told them that if they were together, they could go together ahead of me. They looked a bit surprised but went ahead. I knew that they would not be sitting on the ride together, but would at least have been riding at the same time. A cast member looked surprised that I let them go ahead, but I figured I could go into the next preshow without much longer of a wait. I guess most people wouldn't think to wait a few more minutes to let a couple ride at the same time, but it seemed odd that creating some magic letting them at the same time would surprise people.

Did she block anyone's view or take anyone's seat?

First of all, yes the fat cow was blocking the view of both of my small sons' view.

Second, if you, and others, have to ask and roll your eyes, I guess she was not the only one whose momma did a poor job of teaching lessons in polite manners in public! I mean really, to come in at the last minute and plop down in front of children and think it is ok to block their view!

Third, if she didn't like the wheels bumping her, she could always take her two children and so somewhere else.
