Most Embarressing Moments at Disney

[allyphoe]

DD then-almost-3 decided in the middle of Animal Kingdom that she was no longer going to wear a diaper. Tantrum, tantrum, off came the diaper.

At that point (mid-afternoon, long hot day, everyone tired), I wasn't going to fight her over the diaper. She had a knee-length dress on, so odds were that no one was going to notice, and I knew she wasn't likely to pee in the next couple hours anyhow. When you're a mom, you pick your battles.

The battle I chose to pick was "Sitting in the middle of the pathway with your dress hiked up around your waist and your bare butt on the pavement, screaming at the top of your lungs, is unacceptable."

We reach a food-based compromise, only to discover that all of the pretzel and popcorn wagons in the area are closed. Nor is there a chocolate milk vendor nearby, nor is there anything for her in the stroller.

We reach an alternative food-based compromise, in which she agrees to come to the farthest-back seating in the closed-for-the-day Chakranadi Chicken Shop and stop bawling, and I agree that she can nurse in public.

We move, we sit, she starts nursing, I look vaguely off into the distance and wait for her to be done. A few minutes later, I look down, and discover that she's got her dress pulled up to her armpits and her hand between her legs. And that a couple of other people have sat down around us.

I had always wondered how Disney could manage to sell a 3-pack of little girl underwear for $15. Now I know!

I have a bad knee that swells if I stay on it to long . I was on my 5th day in WDW with a friend and at this point she was pushing me in a wheelchair with my leg proped up and a ice bag on it . She had parked me by the strollers and went into the CP to check us in for our ADR. I was sitting there worn out and bummed that she was having to push me . ( she is 5' in shoes LOL I am 5'8 I look silly in the chair anyway !with her pushing)
I had been watching this cute little squirrel go from stroller to stroller looking for food in the bottom of the baskets. He was starving or so it seemed he would stop and look up at me and sit up on his hind legs . He looked cute and harmless I tell ya !
When she came back out I asked her to dig in my backpack for some PB crackers I had in there so I could feed him . She handed me the crackers and told me it was not a good idea. I threw one on the ground, he didnt want that one . So I put one in my hand and stuck it out as far as I could for him to take . HE JUMPED in my lap and I screamed some not so nice words he started scratching me and then bit me on my hand as I screamed and tried to swat him out of my lap . He would leave and I couldnt stand up because of the knee LOL I did get him out of my lap while yelling out the whole time "Get out of my Bleeping lap you bleeping nasty bleeping sqiurrel. You filthy bleeping beast" Yeah you guys know how in front of CP they have that Kodak spot where people video and take pictures . Well all accross America there are videos of me doing this because oh I would say 50 people at least turned thier video cameras on me .
To this day I expect it to pop up on Americas Funniest Videos.

Um....have you checked Youtube lately?

We went to Disney last year with another family, we have three girls and they have a little boy who is about 5. With three little girls, you must have at least one princess dinner. So we all got dressed up in our princess finery for a nighttime dinner at Akershus. Everything was going very well and our food had just arrived at our table. The adults had each ordered the different entrees, and the kids had all picked the pasta with meatballs. The little boy, who shall remain nameless , looks at my little girls and yells, "Which one of you wants my balls?"

There was complete silence in the restaurant.

We realized after our shock wore off that he was trying to give away his meatballs and not making any personal references.

It was all the princesses could do not to laugh once we all started. He even got a kiss from Ariel out of the deal!

All of these stories remind me of when my family decided to take an afternoon rest at our hotel after a morning at MGM. We were the only ones in line at our bus stop (thankfully!) when my younger sister announced that she had to pee. My mom asked her if she could hold it until we got to the hotel. She promptly began to scream, "IM GUNNA PEE! IM GUNNA PEE! IM GUNNA PEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!" We all watched in horror as a river of pee flowed down the side walk.

OMG...I literally just laughed out loud at that one...

Back in 1998 My family (of four) went to WDW with our neighbors (family of five). Whilst there we sat down to enjoy the Beauty and the Beast stage show.

Back then, they released doves at the end of the show. Apparently, they were trained to sit in the rafters above the seating area before coming back for the next show.

We got there early enough that the doves were still in the rafters from the previous show. Wait for it...

Yup, I got pooped on...five times.

AND! I was wearing a brand new black John Lennon t-shirt that I had purchased the day before in Epcot at the UK pavillion.

Troy (the father of our "neighbor family") was barely able to watch the show because he was laughing so hard. We still live across the street from that family, but the parents have since divorced so I rarely ever see Troy. My parents, however, have taken it upon themselves to take over the responsibility of reminding me of the incident every time we see the BatB show.

My son, who turned 8 in March is small for his age, but super smart, and during our May trip, I made him go into the ladies restroom with me a few times (though he is now reluctant to go) when his dad was not able to take him into the mens room---well, one time he came out of the restroom and said, "Mom!!!? I am digusted with Disney!!!! They are sooooo CHEAP!!! They sell stuff to us all over the place here, but did you see what they are stooping to?!! They are trying to SELL napkins to women for FIFTY CENTS?! This is terrible...you can get napkins for free all over the place here, but they are trying to rip off women!!!" He then proceeded to tell my husband in a loud tone of voice and then told a few strangers walking by...and brought up this subject a few times during the rest of our trip....

This is an embarassing one for my husband. We had waited about 15 min. in line for POTC and the boat had barely started going when my DD2.5 announced she had to go potty. Now, we had just gone potty right before we got in line so we were telling her, "Just hold it honey, we'll go as soon as we get off the boat." Well, about every 3 seconds she keeps saying how she has to go potty. This was not an enjoyable ride for any of us and just as we are about to disembark my husband, who is holding DD on his lap, exclaims, "Oh no, she's going!" I grab her and I am holding her at arm's length dodging the crowd scouring for a bathroom and DH is close behind with the front of his shorts soaking wet. Obviously it looked like he had wet himself ! I had brought a change of clothes for DD so that was no problem to get her cleaned up and changed but poor DH was another story. He had to walk all the way from POTC back through the front gates to the car to back to the hotel to change. I felt so bad for him. I'm sure he got so many stares and laughs. When I asked him he said, "I just hightailed it out and avoided making eye contact." It was not funny at the time to either of us but it sure makes us laugh now and it's one story DD will be hearing for years to come.

Our trip this June my mom, my sister, and myself went to ride RRC. We had fast passes and thankgoodness because it was raining very hard and the wait was still so long. We saw a line next to us and saw people going up there so we thought that it was another fast pass line. We hopped on over and we soon discovered that the line wasn't moving at all. Soon we saw a cast member come up and talk to the people in line in front of us. We heard them say that it was the "single rider line" not a fastpass line. Instead of going all the way back to end of the line we cut in front hmmm maybe 100 people or more who were not very pleased with us so the rest of the time in line was spent with people glaring at us.

We went to the new attraction the laugh floor and they pick people randomly from the audience to be on screen and answer jokes. It was my b-day that day and me and my sister sat at the end of a row. I was picked to be on screen and I was already a little embarrased. The Buddy somebody was trying to read my mind. He asked me to tell the audience my number out loud so they would know what it was. Instead the CM holding the microphone up to my mouth told me to hold up the number with my fingers. I did and to get me back for my trick the monster made me make sheep sounds and wave my arms around like I had antennas. It was quite and embarresing moment as the whole theater was laughing hysterically. At the end of my turn the monster wished me a happy b-day.


This trip was filled w/ embarrasing moments but those two were the most memorable.

Love the monster story!!!!

Well, this wasn't embarassing for me, but it was for my sister! A few trips back, my sister was recovering from a knee surgery so she rode in a wheelchair most of the trip. Well, we were at Epcot and I was pushing her when I found a great photo spot for my mom and dad to stand at with Spaceship Earth in the background. I let go of the wheelchair to take the picture and as I'm taking it, we hear my sister screaming! We turn around and see her rolling down this hill backwards and didn't know how to stop! We start running after her, which was hard to do because we were laughing at the same time! Poor girl!

Ha! I don't know if we would have been able to keep the camera steady while laughing! But you are right! That would have been great from a bystander's point of view!

A bunch of us went to Orlando for a huge car show and we were going to take one day and go to MK....well the night at the car show I was attacked by mosquitos... I do not react well with bites, they swell up to the size of half dollars on me...not thinking I forgot to back bug repellant and there wasnt a place near by to purchase it..again stupid me...why would there be a lot of skeeters out in later Oct??

So the next day I look like a spotted freak, all red and raised bites all over my legs and arms. We go to MK, head to the nurse station and they give me clear calomine lotion to put on.

We are standing on Main Street watching the 3pm parade and this lady points at me, screams to her kids, "STAY AWAY FROM HER, DONT CATCH WHAT EVER THE HECK SHE HAS!!!"

Everyone around us turned and looked at me, all my friends were dying with laughter and I was mortified...I slinked off into a store and wanted to hide!
