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

[jpkkld]

I just had to bring this thread back. At Disney last week, I definitely overheard some good ones, but the best was at the French Quarter bus stop. Mom, Dad, daughter are waiting for a bus. They look pretty tired. The Dad stretches, and then in a tone of voice you would use when saying "Aaaahhh, I can't WAIT for a Dole Whip", he says:

"Aaaahhh, I can't WAIT to see my chiropractor."

Okay, I admit it. It was my husband. It was our 2nd day there.

A little background first, my mom is French Canadian and my dad is English. Both my sister and I speak English without a French accent but my mom definitely still has hers, so we always make fun of her for saying certain things funny or messing up French and English words. (Yes were mean I know but it makes things entertaining). For some reason when we go somewhere like Florida where most people are English my mom gets intimidated of something because her French Canadian accent comes out full force!

We were at Epcot in the Canadian Pavilion and of course making fun of my poor mother for something (she’s a good sport, she always just says how would you guys entertain yourselves without me!). So my mom and little sister go into the bathroom and run into this lady, the lady (after hearing her talk) stops her on the way out and say "Can I guess where you are from based on your accent? I’m so good at this!" .. my mom was like sure... so the lady starts naming off countries "Switzerland? Sweden? Norway?..." eventually the lady gave up and my mom told her she was from Canada. The lady looked at her puzzled and walked away, then we heard her say to her friend "I’m usually so good at guessing".


Another funny moment that made us laugh on our last trip also happened at Epcot. This family of 4, the boy looked about maybe 8 and the little girl was about 5. We were walking behind them on our way to catch a bus back to the resort and we could hear the kids talking about how anxious they were to get back to the resort after a long day warm day (it was a scorcher! ) when all of a sudden the dad spots their bus and starts yelling "All Star Sports! Run!!!! ". So dad grabs the boy by the hand and mom the little girl and they are off. It was all so dramatic, the little girl suddenly stops running and falls onto a park bench, her mom was like c'mon were gonna miss the bus! She was panting and laying there with her Cinderella dress on and yells out "No go on without out me, I’m not gonna make it!" she could be an actress, it was so cute she was so dramatic about it! Her mom was like "No no we are not leaving you here now c'mon". Not sure if they made their bus or not but it was a pretty cute/funny scene!

Hi - my first post - figured if I do something wrong or silly, this would be a good thread to do so! Anyway, just had to add my 2 cents!

Last year I ran the Princess Half Marathon. Later that day, women all over the parks were wearing their medals (myself included). After finishing up several hours at the MK, I went to catch the bus back to Port Orleans. The bus driver was standing outside of his bus and started commenting to me how silly the Princess Half Marathon was. "because you know, people are allowed to WALK during the event! Have you ever heard of anything so stupid? If it's a "marathon", walking shouldn't be allowed". He kept going on about it, which I thought was fairly ironic, given the fact that he was about 80 pounds overweight. I SO wanted to ask him when was the last time he'd run OR walked 13.1 miles! But I just smiled and got on the bus.

O.k. after our trip I have one to add......

While we were waiting in line for Caribbean Beach Resort at Epcot, this older retired gentleman and his lovely wife were visiting with my boys. Eventually the gentleman asked us where we were staying to which my oldest (8) looks at me like this guy's an alien. I mention that we are staying at Caribbean Beach and the man says, "ReALLY??? We are too." He then stares off for a minute and says, "You know I meet a lot of people in these lines that are staying at Caribbean Beach. It must be really popular."

Thanks for these memories everyone! Love reading them!

My wife was in the restroom at The Rose and Crown when she overheard a British mother talking with her two daughters in the next stall (my first thought was wow - crowded stall!).

Soon after, my wife hears hysterical crying from one of the girls, followed by the mother's response:

"Eloise, that was completely unnecessary! Can't you see she was absolutely desperate??"

My wife is pretty sure one daughter really needed to use the toilet and had been beaten to the punch by her sister.

I was sitting in one of the rocking chairs on the "back porch" of the main building at POR on my last day - just relaxing. It was the first day of check-in for Pop Warner.

A young woman and her son stepped outside and saw the water taxi and commented to her son how much fun it will be to take the "boat to Walt Disney World."

Just then, her husband pops out of the door with their young daughter and their "check-in" package. He tells the wife that they need to go back out front to catch the bus to go to "a bunch of parks." She tells her husband, "But, we want to take the boat to get to Walt Disney World."

He says, "You wouldn't believe it, we are already in Walt Disney World. This hotel is in Walt Disney World." She looks befuddled. He pulls her along, but she continues to insist taking the boat. He finally says, "We have to take a bus to get to a park. And there are FOUR of them."

She looks really befuddled now. He pulls her aside, out of hearing range of the kids, but right beside me now and says..... "You won't believe how f$#@$&^ big this place is. You just have no idea what we have gotten ourselves into here."

That is awesome!!!

On our trip in 2008 DD3 (now 5) had just finished a bad case of the stomach flu and knew that if she said she needed to poop we would drop EVERYTHING and run to a bathroom.
So....we're riding Winnie the Pooh ride and all you hear is a screaming little girl, "I GOTTA GO POOP!"
Next day, at Epcot. She's so excited to ride the Nemo ride, we sit down the ride starts to move, "I GOTTA GO POOP".
DHS, Muppets 3D- show just starts and "I GOTTA GO POOP"....She is screaming it so loudly that a security guard escorted DH and DD out. Then DD5 (now 7) just put her 3D glasses on- takes them off and yells, "I GOTTA GO POOP". They didn't let us out and she spent the entire trip complaining that she really did need to poop and her sister messed it up for her.

Now, when things are awkward DH and I whisper to each other, "gotta go poop!".

At AK I was walking through the pangani trail and a little boy says to his mom excitedly " look mom! animals." and points to an exhibit with some sort of birds.Then his mom replies " oh those arn't animals, those are just birds."

we do 4 parks in a day all the time.

You may stop at all 4 parks but you sure don't DO all 4 parks in one day!

Last July my family was having dinner at the Garden Grill. As the restaurant rotated around I saw water cascading down the windows on the ceiling. At this point I realized that I had forgotten to put the waterproof cover on the stroller when I parked it. I asked our server if the water running down the windows was real. She told me that it was real rain water and was not provided by Disney. Fortunately we had some ponchos with us so that my DD didn't have to ride in a wet stroller.

I got separated from DH at Disneyland and I was FREAKING out. I started crying and it was fireworks time, so they told me I had to keep moving. So, I'm crying, my DH is calling my cell phone using my cell phone so he can't understand why it won't work. Finally, a CM asked me what was wrong, and I told him rather hysterically that I had lost my DH. He looked at me and in as kind of a voice as he could muster (I'm sure he wanted to slap me), said, "DH is a big boy. I'm sure he's safe. Now, if you are a good girl and stop crying, I'll let you make a call on my cell." God bless that man! I found DH by Space Mountain and then remembered that was where we were supposed to meet if we got lost! Right after that, we ran into Donald and I have pictures of me looking like heck warmed over!


Same trip, I had to keep going to the bathroom and we never seemed to find one. DH asked a cast member if they could make a new land called Tinkleland!

Love it. when I first read it I had trouble visualizing it. I thought you said

I saw the waiter cascading down the windows on the ceiling. It made it even funnier.

Not really overheard at WDW but related:

I was crossing the bridge that heads to Universal Studios. A resort boat was going under the bridge and a man turns to his family and said, "Those are the boats we take to get to Disneyworld tomorrow."

I wonder if they ever made it to WDW??

 

[TnTWalter]

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.....

This is the BEST THREAD EVER!!! I have spent the last two days laughing out loud at so many of these. I came on the boards for a completely different reason and still haven't gotten to it cause this is just too good!
Thank you!!!

On the Disney Cruise a couple of years ago, a lady was complaining to the purser's desk after being on the ship for about an hour. We were still docked in Port Canaveral. She was complaining because she booked a balcony to have an ocean view and all she could see was land!!!!!

I think Jeff Foxworthy should do a whole show of "Here's your sign" jokes based on (clueless) disney guests.

LOVE this thread and that it's been resurrected!
