Nope, sadly, it's a commentary on our lives more often than not,

This happened to my Dad. Me, my Dad, my friend and her 3 year old daughter were at the Magic Kingdom. My friend and I wanted to ride Space Mountain so my dad offered to take my friends 3 yr old daughter on Tomorrowland Transit Authority. I think it was knows as People Mover? While we ride SM he takes her on TTA. We come off the ride as we are exiting, we see my Dad with Cassandra(my freinds daughter) she is SCREAMING at the top of her lungs...crying!!! Dad said she fell asleep while on TTA. when she woke, she forgot her Mom wasnt there and starting flipping out..all she sees is my Dad..LOL and she starts screaming crying.

My Dad said people were staring at him like.. omg, did he kidnap that kid, what is he doing to her???

poor Dad.. we will never forget that.

Ok so we had never been to Animal Kingdom before. So we are walking around looking for this thing or that and we are totally lost.
We knew we wanted to get to Africa but had no clue how to get to it.
I take it upon myself to walk over to a CM on the otherside of the bridge we were crossing. So I walk right up to him and say hey could you please help us? He says gladly what can I help you with? I say well we have been walking in circles trying to get to Africa from where we are now. Could you please point us in the right direction. With a huge smile on his face he says Mame, just turn around and go straight back over the bridge where you just walked out of! My whole family was almost crying they were laughing so hard as was the CM. I then introuduced us as the dingdong family and thanked him and went on our way feeling very silly.

I don't know if this has already been mentioned as I haven't read this thread nor do I want to flame but wouldn't one of the most "embarressing" moments be when the OP misspelled embarrassing?

I don't know why this was embarrassing to me, since I'm not the one who did it, but I was there, so here goes. As I've said before, I travel to Disney with school groups. I was with two other teachers (both older than me--one is in her 60s), a Foster grandmother, and one of the teacher's sister. We're standing in the Epcot bus line outside of Pop. The bus pulls up, the driver gets out, and this lady, her hubby, and a younger boy and girl walk around the line and straight up to the bus. Or, should I say, the lady wheeled her wheelchair up to the bus. The driver proceeds to let them get on the bus before everyone else. The 60-some year old teacher starts complaining, loudly, about how unfair it was that she got to get on the bus first. She is loudly telling anyone within 500 feet that there was "nothing" wrong with her, look at her, she doesn't have a cast or anything, she's not that old, why is she in a chair?? Why is she getting on the bus first? Look at that, they're taking up too many seats with her chair.

I wanted to crawl underneath the bus and curl up into a ball so noone would know I was with her. The sister of the other teacher told her that we didn't know what was wrong with the lady, she might have heart problems or whatever and we should be thankful that we were able to stand in that line and walk up on the bus.

I know this isn't one of those funny embarrassing moments, but it sure was embarrassing at the time. Needless to say, I didn't go off anywhere with them again!

Subscribing This is a great way to pass time at work!

Maybe not embarassing, but it certainly was funny!

On our first family trip, my mom, dad, I and DSis were visiting MGM. After having ridden TOT twice ourselves, DSis and I confirmed for mom her belief (without ever having been on it) that it wasn't that bad, really! Of course, for a 19 and 20 year old, both of whom love thrill rides, it wasn't!

Dad goes and gets fast passes for all of us, and we return at our appointed time figuring that mom can't back out since we have them. On we go, through the line and into the basement waiting area just before loading. The entire time, mom's courage which she'd spent all afternoon building up was slowly fading. Thankfully, we got onto the 'elevator' before she decided to back out.

Of course, as soon as the car started to move, she decided she'd made a mistake and began informing my father, DSis and I that she hated us all, and could she please just get off, all while clutching my father's hand. Needless to say, that didn't happen! After the ride was over, during which mom screamed the entire way, dad practically has to help her off of the ride to the bench just across from the picture booth. Mom had tears running down her face, and had to gasp for breath because she was laughing so hard. Dad, DSis and I are all bent over at the waist laughing at poor mom, and the looks we got from people passing by...

Funniest of all, dad had bruises between his knuckles from how tightly she was holding his hand!!!

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all of your embarassing moments. I am a ditzy blonde married to a clutz and -believe it or not- have nothing to add. For the life of me I'm trying to think of an embarassing story, but I can't.

We have a couple of memorable moments:

1. Just last week, I was on a trip with my 4 and 7 year old grand kids on our way to Chef Mickey's. As we headed down the escalator, the 7 year old dropped the robot that she was carrying right near the bottom, reached down to get it and fell. I immediately tried to "scoop" her up from the moving floor and bent over to do that. The 4 year old behind me then toppled over, causing me to fall along with himself. So all three of us are at the bottom of the escalator trying to frantically get off with more people coming in behind us, having no where to step off. It was a little scary at the time, but would probably win the $10,000 prize for America's funniest videos if someone had happen to tape it.

2. A couple of years ago, I had convinced my husband to go to one of the buffets with me at the resort. My husband never likes to be the center of attention. As we went back and forth to the buffet, I noticed that several people seem to watch him closely. But brushed it off, thinking that some were foreigners and were just watching us as Americans.
As we get ready to leave and get up, I step behind him, only to notice that the panty shield (that mysteriously went missing as I dressed that morning) was stuck to his behind! I just about went to the floor on that one.
He didn't think it was that funny...

Subscribing!!!

I have only read the first page so far and my sides are hurting from laughing so hard...love the men bathroom one and the one where the lady fell running to keep up with her son....

 

[Trentmom]

We were on Pooh and were just coming around to where you get off, the family before us was taking their good old time gathering their belongings and taking their small children by the hand, when my DD then 3 yells.."Hurry up people I gotta go a stink!"

THis one killed me....

My DS for some reason calls it Big Browns, when he has to poop.

I can only imagine when he starts preschool and has to go and he tells the teacher he has to make big browns.....

 

[Trentmom]

It was during an all day extravaganza 6am-3am-May 2006. One of those days where we went full on commando-early entry (I cannot remember which park) and emh at MK till 3AM!!!

It was about 2:30 am-ish; Dh and I were almost in a vegetative state. Coming around the corner somewhere in fantasyland I spotted a potty station "hold on a moment, hon, I gotta go." I said to Dh while using the last bit of strength I had to turn the corner into the restroom.

The first stall is where I landed, did my deed and flushed.
"AHHHHHH"
(?)
Of course I spoke to the commode, out loud, "Did you just sigh?"
I flushed again, no sigh. Just for kicks, I flushed again...
"AHHHHH"
OH--I HAVE to get a sound recording on my phone for Dh--if not he'll just think I'm hallucinating from exhaustion.

I must have flushed that toilet for 15 minutes...maybe more finally I got a proper recording. This whole time I think it's just moi in there until I hear a rustling down a-ways. I slowly open the stall door to see a lady smiling back at me holding a broom and dustpan.

OH.. "Hi, just, erm, recording the toilet, for verification...it sighs sometimes ya know." She just smiled at me as I was washing my hands and then I ran out of there real quick, zooming right by Dh and kept on going. I heard him yelling to "wait up" and "what happened," but I could feel my face burning and just wanted to gain some distance.

Amazing how adrenaline just kicks in like that I explained it all to a laughing Dh and we chuckled all the way to the front of the park.
Well, at least I have the phone recording...perhaps I will make it my ringtone someday.

This is the funniest one so far.....only on page 4 or 5, I think.

I literally have tears running down my face......

 

[Macca1111]

Awww These are beautiful! I haven't laughed so hard in ages! LOL Someone should put these in a book!

Anyhoo! I got one..not embarrsing for me but my Mom! I was about 10 years old and my sister was 7. My dad (named Frank) had just taken us on Space Mountain in the MK for the first time... We all got off the ride and ran to where my mom was waiting for us... (She's a total ride wuss! ) And of course we are all saying the ride is no sweat..not scary at all...she'll love it.... After 10 minutes of convincing her we are on the ride... At the top of the Mountain before flying down to the botton...she begins the now famous scream.... "F**K YOU FRANK!!!!!!!"
To this day she great red everytime this story is brought up... Hee hee so of course we bring it up often!

Ok, all of these stories have me cracking up, but this one made me laugh uncontrollably out loud. Hope I didn't wake anyone up!

 

[flying_babyb]

I could add but i dont know if i wanna embarass myself....


Ok Im not one for big dips, NOR for not knowing whats comming. My Dsis (jerk) and my Dcuz (BIGGER JERK) convince me that the pirates of the carribean ride would be fun and only have one dip. Well, They get on the ride, im laughing and having fun. First dip. I was ok. Got to the second one and Im darn near having a panic attack. Theres a little 5 year old in front of me whos just looking at me like I got a screw loose. Well then we get to the end. I see the big up-hill. Well that was it for me, Im darn near crying, treatening to pass out and clammoring that I cant breathe. I mean what goes up must come down right? Well, We got off, im freaked and crying and they had the gaul to laugh!!!

Hey anyone ever been to noahs ark? Got a story on that one too.

 

[flying_babyb]

Haha,Well this happened when I was little but it is still funny to all of us.

When I was like 4 or 5 I went to the MK with my mom,grandma,brother and sister.My mom was using a wheelchair and it was evening time.You know how some part's near the Castle have like hills?Well my sister,13 at the time, was pushing my mom along and decided it would be funny to push her really hard and let go..My mom went downt he hill with my brother in her lap.She pushed my brother out so he wouldn't get hurt. She had to go to the Medical Clinic there.All I remember is british people and stickers.But she was alright

It's really funny because my sister is 23 now and she still isn't allowed to push my mom in a wheelchair lol.

Had a simmlar expenarce with my ummmm Large sister. Shes a lot bigger than me weight wise and thought it would be wonderful for me to push her around at the national zoo in D.C. Well, the laws of motion apply. Big object cant be stopped by a little one on a hill. I got a free ride down the hill and had a good laugh when she hit a wall.

Reminds me of the time I "borrowed" my 8 YO DS's school backpack for camping. I had no idea that I hadn't fully unpacked it until I picked him up from school one day and he was SO mad at me. I asked him what was wrong to which his reply was to unzip his backpack, snatch out a pantiliner and thrust it in my face. "You forgot to take YOUR STUFF out of my backpack." I truly don't believe he knows what a pantiliner is, but boy, he was cheesed off at me anyway.

I guess DH and I suffered an embarrassing moment in WDW when we snuck away for our anniversary last March. We were very excited about going without the boys for once and even went as far as to get matching t-shirts made with Donald and Daisy on the front and the number "15" on the back (indicating how many years we've been married). We wore the obligatory anniversary buttons so most of the CM's would comment and wish us a happy anniversary.

We ventured to the Character Connection at Epcot and as we queued up the (older) gentleman CM congratulated us on our anniversary and asked us how long we'd been married. We told him fifteen years to which he replied "Wow! It must've been a shotgun wedding!" probably best describes my reaction. Once we recovered we laughed and told him no, it wasn't a shotgun wedding and we were both of legal age when we got married.

We did end up receiving several comments during our trip. "What, did you get married when you were four?" and "Do you have kids? How old are they?" and you could see them doing the mental child/marriage math. (Married 15 years, oldest child is 11, we are quite legit. )
