Mark the Disney bus driver....

[DisneyJules]

Has anyone had a man named Mark as a bus driver from Downtown Disney? ( I know there's hundreds of buses) I believe he shuttles people to the resorts as well. He was our bus driver one night even though we were staying offsite and it was honestly the highlight of my day. We laughed till we cried, all the way home! We sang songs, he told jokes, we answered trivia and who could possibly forget the weeeeeeeee turns! I've never heard a bus full of people laugh as much as I did that night. There was one rider from Panama who thanked him profusely when he got off and tipped $20
Just thought I had to share, it's great when a worker goes out of their way to do more than just their "job."

I don't know if his name was Mark... but we had a bus driver a few years ago from OKW to MK one AM that was SOO funny, my DD's did not want to get off to go to MK!! The oldest begged to stay on the bus with "the funny driver"...it was better than a stand up routine.

She kept looking for him for the rest of the trip!!

YES! We had him one night. It was after waiting at the HDD for a bus, then waiting at the main entrance to FW for another bus to DTD. Everyone was tired and cranky getting on the bus, but we were all laughing hysterically when getting off. The highlight of the ride was the body surfing Eeyore down the crowded bus.

Unfortunately, I believe Ive read on these boards that Mark is no longer with Disney.

I forgot his name, he was an older man, and was full of great Info and did corny jokes. I thanked him profusely when I got off the bus, and he was such a nice man.

We had Mark one time last year I think. At least maybe it was Mark, he had a stuffed Eeyore and would deem one rider the keeper of the Eeyore. When we were going from TTC to Downtown Disney, we took that back road that goes past Ft Wilderness and he turned the lights on and made us (full bus) say HELLO to the security man at the booth. Way to funny. Heard he isn't with disney anymore?

CamColt, Well I was just there a few weeks ago and he was still there....driving for disney. Like you, we were all tired too and before getting on the bus all I could think was, "this is going to be a long trip," little did I know!
