One of the funniest things I've ever heard at WDW:

[mickeyluvncwgrl]

This year in early December we were in the sea of humanity at DHS to view the Osborne Lights. A young father asks me "Where is the Christmas Party With the Fireworks?", I said there is a Christmas Party at the Magic Kingdom. No, he says, here at the Studios with fireworks. I tried to explain to him that there is Fantasmic but you have to walk clear across the park to the theater to view Fantasmic. He was befuddled and did not understand me.

I remember overhearing somebody say that! It made me laugh a little..

Brooke and I were in MK,and it was Todd's first time being there. We told him we should go to The Enchanted Tiki Room,and he said,
"Rooms are enchanted? And full of birds? I didn't know birds are magic!"

And we were in the dinosaur restaurant and this little kid said to his mom,
"I can't wait to go to Pool Mountain! That's where the bunny lives!"
I was like "WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAT."

"I can't wait to go to Pool Mountain! That's where the bunny lives!"
I was like "WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAT."

I think I can translate this without too much stretching:

Pool Mountain = Splash Mountain.

Bunny = Brer Rabbit.

(That's not too far off for a little kid, I guess.)

People always saying, "Fast Track" or "Test Pass"

I thought they provided TP?

and what the heck is TGM and RM? I thought I was ready for my trip but now I wonder.....

TP - Touring Plan
TGM - Tour Guide Mike
RM - Ridemax

Tour Guide Mike and Ridemax are services that provide touring plans for a park and other advice related to crowds.

I was waiting to check in at CP on Friday, Dec. 3. They were of course doing the Christmas day Parade taping and so Main Street was crowded, but the rest of the park wasn't too bad (which is the only reason we went). There were two women in front of me talking about how they couldn't believe they were shooting at movie at Disney World!

I listened to them for about 5 minutes going on and on about what movie they could be making, that there weren't any big name movie stars, can't believe they didn't close the park, and on and on it went. I finally told them it was the Xmas day taping and they were adamant that it was a movie. "Don't you know they tape the Christmas parade on CHRISTMAS DAY?"

Makes me wonder if they were surprised to see the "movie" being shown on Christmas day?

Child: What is that string from the building over there going into the castle?

Father: That is how prince charming gets his internet....

Not surprising considering there's no WiFi in WDW!

both this and the father's comment

This happened to my daughter on our trip in 2008 who was 3 at the time. She was sitting on one of the benches right outside of Test Track exit underneath a tree or something. I was standing in front of her, she looks at me and shouts:

"Who keeps dropping ice cream on my arm!!!!"

I looked and even though it looked like ice cream, it wasn't . A little birdie above was doing its business. Me and my wife almost lost it and started laughing hysterically. And quickly cleaned up my daughter's arm!

I was a CM for awhile, and I heard it all. Here are just a couple of my favorites:

1) I was working the door at Innoventions when a summer thunderstorm popped up. We would always draw a massive crowd of annoyed people at those times, so I always went out of my way to try to cheer them up. But one woman was beyond hopeless:

Woman: Excuse me, miss. Can you go tell them to turn off the rain?

Me: I'm sorry, what?

Woman: Go tell those people to turn off that rain! I paid a lot of money to get in here, and I don't know why you think it's funny to get me all wet!

Me: I do apologize, ma'am, but I'm sure it won't last long. Here in Florida it rains almost every afternoon during the summer, but it clears up quickly. I'll be happy to contact our weather department and find out what time it will end.

Woman (now screaming): Apparently you don't understand me! I know how all your little tricks work. Ha ha, real funny! Now get hold of the person in charge and tell him to turn off the d**n rain!

Me (into my radio): Um, God? This is Innoventions Greeter. Could you please turn off the rain?

**A few seconds pass**

Me: I'm sorry, ma'am. He doesn't seem to be by the radio right now.

Woman: Oh well. Thanks for trying. Have a good day now!

2) My own father did this one. We were at Fort Wilderness for a few days, and for some reason we ran into every single surly, grumpy CM in the place. We've stayed there since and never had a problem, but this was just one of those trips. So by the last day, he'd had enough. We went to the front desk to complain to a supervisor.

(Dad finishes up the rather long story)

Supervisor: I'm so sorry that happened. I know you mentioned the CM's names...do you happen to know their last names?

Dad (frustrated): Last names? You people don't have last names! It's just "Hi, I'm Bob." "Hi, I'm George." (in a perfect Mickey Mouse voice) "Hi, I'm Mickey. Heehee!"

That was it. My boyfriend, my mom, the supervisor and I were all on the floor. I don't even remember what the supervisor did to make it right, though I'm sure he did something. But to this day, whenever we run into a grumpy CM, one of us will spout off "Hi, I'm Mickey. Heehee!"

I have a bunch of others, but those are my favorites.

This was the funniest! Oh my goodness!
"God, can you please turn off the rain?" If this ever happens to me I have got to use this. I can't believe she was actually satisfied and walked away. How could she not get it?

"You people don't have last names!" that's funny because (name-tag wise) it's true.

This whole thread has had me ROFL, but this one truly takes the cake! Thanks for sharing!

I've told this story before, but I think it bears repeating. When my oldest was around 13, we took a friend of hers along - I'll call her Kayla. It was Kayla's first time at WDW since she was 3 and she loved thrill rides so she was especially excited to ride the coasters. We were at MK one afternoon and decided to ride Space Mountain only to find out it had broken down. Kayla was crushed.

We had planned to hop over to DHS later on anyway, so since we'd had enough of MK by then, I suggested we go to DHS. This was our first time at DHS this trip so Kayla had not yet ridden RNRC and she was beyond excited. So immeditely after we entered the park we rushed over to RNRC. We arrived at the entrance (with the upside down car), and Kayla's expression immediately went from excited to disappointed. I couldn't understand what was wrong until she said 'Oh, no, this one is broken down, too'

And before anyone asks, yes, Kayla is blonde.

OMG - these are GREAT! Makes me want to bring a notebook to jot things down that I overhear when we go in March. Although DH already things I'm a nut with my touring plan, Lord knows what he'd think then!

 

[TinkerMouse]

And before anyone asks, yes, Kayla is blonde.

It's mean to say but I've actually wondered this for a couple of these posts.

Father: That is how prince charming gets his internet....

Something I overheard while waiting for 'Wishes'.

That was priceless! Guess he figured out what the line was really used for when Tinkerbell flew to kick off Wishes.

Thanks for that laugh!

Just in case.....

TP- Touring plans
TGM- Tour Guide Mike
RM- Ride Max




Thanks for all the laughs!!! I think the funniest thing I heard was the guy wondering why Disney dining was so limited because they DON'T server hamburgers and grilled cheese (for adults) everywhere!! So not where I thought that conversation was going....

 

[momof2disprincesses]

Once in line for MK, I overhead a guy say to his family, "You go ride the rides. I'm getting a few beers and I'll meet up with you later." I bet he wound up disappointed.
