Most Embarressing Moments at Disney

[stargrazer]

DD10 gets really nervous in line for some of the more moderate/thrilling rides; unfortunately, when she gets nervous she also gets gas. I always stand behind her to try and buffer the next person in line.

So last week we are standing in line for Soarin', which she's rode a million times. All the sudden, I smell gas -really BAD.

So I say in (what I thought was) a quiet voice 'somebody have a little gas'? DD looks at me all stupid and the lady behind us pipes up and says, 'yes, so sorry'.



Her face was so red!

I have a truck driver's mouth at times... the kids have heard words they shouldn't hear, mostly 'f'. DH was always yelling at me for it, and people are always surprised to hear i have the potty mouth in the family, because i only use this word at home and never "at" anyone (like if i stub my toe or something i'll say it). I'm really a very sweet, normal mom. DH uses the 's' word at times and a few other not-too-bad ones. Oh, and my kids know they cannot say these words. BUT...

at disney vero beach... myself, dh, dd5yo (at the time) and ds3yo are in the lobby... ds was in a mood, probably no sleep, we just arrived having drove from NY, whatever other excuse i can think of... he was at the top of the big staircase and wouldn't come down... the lobby was full of people... we had our luggage and were tired of chasing him around, and dh probably threatened him w/ a time out or no swimming or somthing... My ds somehow put together all the bad words he knew and SHOUTED out to us "no! i'm not coming down, you

(moderators, sorry if this is over the line... i don't know how to clean it up more)

"F##-A##/S-hole!"...


OMG, it was like that EF Hutton commercial... everything went silent and EVERYONE looked at us! It was as if time stood still and i was stuck w/ my feet glued to the floor, just soaking in all the glares...

a few hours later in the elevator, a man smiles and says to us "i recognize you from the lobby... it's nice to know other kids do that too, but i'm glad mine didn't do it in front of everyone". I felt like people were pointing at us the whole week "there's that white-trash family w/ the horrible son!"

this same wonderful son of mine also put together 2 other words when he was younger than that (maybe 2yo). He and dd bathed together and we use the correct words when describing body parts. He somehow started saying Poopy-V## on a regular basis. I mean to the cashier at the grocery store, to every relative we have (my mil almost passed out when he said it to her), to absolutely anyone who would listen! He'd say it as if he were saying 'hello' to someone. I never knew when it would fly out of his mouth, and i don't think he had any idea as to what he was saying. he just thought those 2 words sounded wonderful together and wanted to share it with the world.

i'm happy to say he's 5yo now, and never uses any bad words. and he actually hardly ever used bad words anyway... just in the crowded lobby of a hotel!

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...

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm howling here. That is toooooooooooooo funny.

This one is not disney related, but thought I share anyway.

About 5 months ago, DS(3), had pointed to my chest and asked what they were.

After thinking for a few seconds of a good word to use, I chose B***ies

So, about 3 weeks later, we are in Walmart and get up the cashier.

He says, "Nice Hair" Then, he says "Nice Shirt". He is always complimenting people..too cute..

Anyways, his next words "Nice B****ies!"

Luckily, the cashier cracked up and thought it was funny.

But I was looking for the nearest hole to crawl into....

My embarassing moment happened this Christmas...

One day in Magic Kingdom, my mom and I were sitting on a curb along Main Street waiting for the parade to start. Out of nowhere a huge swarm of birds started circling around where we were sitting. I turned to my mom and told her that it would be my luck to get pooped on by one of those birds above our heads. We laughed about it for awhile and hoped that wouldn't happen.

About five minutes before the parade started, I felt this big plop on my back. I first I thought that it was starting to rain, but then I remembered the birds. I asked my mom if a bird had just pooped on me. Well, she started freaking out, so I took that as a yes...There was a group of little kids and parents behind us and noticed and were yelling gross, etc. Luckily my mom had Wet Ones in her backpack and was able to wipe it off before it dried on my shirt. You really couldn't tell that it had happened after she wiped it off, which was good.

I enjoyed the parade otherwise though...

All of the stories in this thread are funny, but this one just made me laugh so hard I had tears streaming down my face. I really needed a good laugh like that. Thank you for posting that story!

I can see the headline of your local paper:

WalMart employee files sexual harassment charges against 3 y.o. customer...
Out of the mouths of babes....

Just subscribing. I can't think of any embarrassing moments for myself, but I will try..

Gosh you guys are so funny with your embarrassing moments! I have my own lol... This was the first time my family and I went to WDW. My daughter was 4 at the time, and we got to the resort late, I'd say probably 9 P.M. Well my daughter wanted to see Cindie's Castle badly... The parks had already closed b/c of Graduates night in May. We had no idea about how WDW looked or how it worked So we got in the vehicle and found a cast member near MK We asked where was the best place that we could get a glimpse of the castle since we couldn't go to the park. He looked at us as if we were nuts and said, "Ma'am I doubt you can without going to the park itself Now (after going there 11 times) just thinking of that moment makes me blush.... this guy must have thought we were hicks from the forest

Almost WDW but not quite.

My 2yo DD was walking out of the Shrek ride at Universal. Through the store they have some unicorn toys. DD loved them, so whilst I went off to see T2-3D DH bought one for her. The unfortunate thing is that she calls it a Uniporn - we keep coaching her to say Unicorn and she CAN say it, but even now, she still reverts back to saying uniporn.: confused3

Awww....how embarassing that must have been....

 

[Trentmom]

These are so hilarious!!

I just wanted to give it a little bump..

Would love to hear some more stories...

This happened to my mother several years ago when she was in her early 60s. She always carried a fairly large tote bag to Disney with sunscreen, camera and other items. She loved riding the big thrill rides at the Magic Kingdom and prided herself on her courage. Well, one day she got on Big Thunder Mountain RR and my dad waved goodbye as usual (he hated the big rides). She looped her purse handles over the bar and took off. The ride ended and she got up to get off but her bag straps somehow got twisted up and she couldn't get them off the bar! Even the CM couldn't manage to undo them! So she got to ride again!

Meanwhile Dad is waiting impatiently but has no clue where she is or why she didn't come out as expected. He of course, is cursing under his breath! Dad has no patience!

It took 3 rides and two more CMs to get her bag released and this is how family legends are born. And Dad didn't speak to Mom for 30 minutes for worrying him so much!

I love it...Totally worth it to get 3 rides in a row....

It took 3 rides and two more CMs to get her bag released and this is how family legends are born.

Not embarrasing, but this totally reminded me of one of my favorite stories from DLP. My sister, Dad, and I were riding Big Thunder there, and we had a great time - the ride is really fun, with a neat little trip outside right on the water (it goes underground out to an island, around the island, and then back to the start) We got back to the load, and our safety bars didn't pop up - we were locked in our seats! We tried to get the attention of the French CMs - they are a little more, shall we say relaxed on the job and were not at all paying attention or noticing that a whole car couldn't load or unload. My family doesn't speak a word of French (we tried English) nor did the family stuck in front of us (they didn't speak English or French) so our attempts to get the CMs to notice us didn't do anything. We ended up riding three times before someone noticed and unlocked our bars manually. It was hilarious because we kept giving the other family the look - oh well, I guess we're going again! It was so strange, but really funny at the same time, and I'm so glad we got to ride those extra times!
