People waiting in line say the darndest things!

The only one I remember was from Nov 2007 - not in a line but at Nemo the Musical.
Dad and young son were sitting beside us and son asks Dad "Where's Sydney, Dad?"
Dad says "In England, son."
He said it with such knowledge and conviction that I didn't have the heart to say anything. (I'd be too chicken, anyway!!!) And I'm from Australia, too...!!!

Our first trip to Disney World was when my DD was 4 (she's 9 now). She was something of a precocious pre-schooler and provided us with 2 moments of hilarity on that trip.

1. The first attraction we did when we got to the parks on the first day was go see Turtle Talk with Crush. During the question portion, DD raises her hand and says "Where do baby turtles come from?" Every adult in the theater started giggling, and Crush said "Who does this child belong to?" When I raised an embarrassed hand, he said "My condolences". After the show, DD said with outrage, "Crush did not answer my question Mommy. And why was everyone laughing?"

2. I took her on Splash Mountain, of which she was immediately suspicious.

DD - "what IS this ride, Mommy?"

me - "it's a boat ride"

DD - "I don't know about this"

me - "why don't you just try it out. If you don't like it, you don't have to go on again."

DD enjoys the ride for the most part - even some of the drops in the middle. Towards the end of the ride, she starts getting suspicious again.

DD - "Is there going to be a scary drop at the end?"

me - "it'll be alright honey." At which time we come to the last big hill. With the two vultures and all of those signs.....

DD - "Oh really? Then why does that sign say CAUTION! BIG DROP AHEAD!"

me (to myself) - "why does my 4 year old know how to read the word caution....."

She ended up enjoying Splash Mountain immensely.

Yesterday in line for space mountain I was in front of a high school cheer squad. The girls were talking about their plans for after graduation. They were naming colleges they had been accepted at, but the last girl said " I'm going to pose for playboy and get me a fine sugardaddy.". She was totally serious and spent the next 20 minutes defending her choice to her friends.

Well, this wasn't overheard while waiting in line but I think it fits here. A former co-worker of mine came back from a weeklong vacation in Orlando and was really miffed. She said they looked all week and never could find the castle, Space Mtn, etc etc. After asking a few questions I figured out that they only went to the Universal parks - never set foot on Disney property. Can you imagine how much fun it might have been to eavesdrop on their conversations while waiting in line?

That is HYSTERICAL! Still laughing. Made my whole day.

For some reason this one really hit me right now, and I desperatly needed it! Thank you!

This wasn't in line but at breakfast this morning at Chef Mickey's. Someone at the table next to us said "We saw Donald already. Where is Daffy Duck?"

My 2 girlfriends and I had taken a trip to WDW when we were all still single, right after MGM had just opened. It was my one girlfriend's first trip to WDW. We were standing on line in the cue for Star Tours. It was at the part where they show you the "pre-flight boarding" info. It got to the part where everyone was loading into the space ship and they showed humans as well as Star Wars characters entering the ship. My girlfriend yells out, "I want to sit next to an Ewok"! We were mortified! I had to tell her that that was just for show and there really weren't Star Wars characters riding with us!

Overheard two teenagers killing time

Girl: If you loved me, you would let me put make-up on you.
Boy: mascara, maybe, but no eyeliner...
Girl: you can't see mascara! C'mon, just let me put make-up on you!
Boy: um... no
Girl: I can't believe you don't love me enough!

I am so enjoying all of these! My story is many years back when my DS was 7 years old. The day before we had been to MK POTC. Oh how he loved the pirates!!-- the hairly legged guy sitting on the bridge, the dog, the ships battling and the pirates ransacking the village auctioning off the ladies....... Day two we are in what was MGM Studios watching the Voyage of the Little Mermaid. The doors close, the lights dim...the ceiling glistens as if underwater and out comes Ariel sitting on that rock singing her pretty song. All of a sudden, my son pops out of his seat and yells very loudly "We wants the red head!!!" The audience erupted and all these dads in seats surrounding us gave him a high five! Priceless.

Girl: If you loved me, you would let me put make-up on you.

Here's what the boy SHOULD have said:

Boy: If you loved me, you wouldn't ask to put make-up on me.

I was in Animal Kingdom on 2/26 and decided to visit Rafiki's Planet Watch. After exiting the train, the giant statue of Rafiki is there to greet you. I heard a father tell his child, "Hey, look at the big monkey. I can't remember his name right now."

 

[d_lairson]

... "We wants the red head!!!...

Is my family (well my wife, brother and I) the only ones who chant "we wants the red head!" along with the pirates while on the ride?

 

[Orlando313]

I have the grossest one ever! We were at Blizzard Beach (I think) waiting to get in one of the big rafts for the family thing. This man and his two kids step into the water in front of us to get into the raft. The little girl, maybe 6ish said, "Is it time to go potty now daddy?" Daddy says no, hush. Little girl says "But mommy said I could go when I got in the water, and we're in the water now." Poor dad was horrified that all these people heard the exchange. I was horrified that I was in line behind the little girl.

I have one from Nemo, around the same year.

Announcer says, "Today's performance of Finding Nemo is sponsored by McDonald's!"

Daughter (confused): Mom, did that guy say McDonalds?!!

Mother: Yeah, on the way out, everybody gets a coupon for a Filet-o-Fish!

I have one
Last year after eating breakfast at Norway my mother, my then 7 1/2 yo son and I stopped at the empty ladies room (right next to Norway).
My darling wonderful son hates bugs of any kind. I was standing by the mirror waiting for my mother and my son was jumping around.

Out of nowhere my lovely son yells quick mom give me 50 cents. I said why. He says theres a fly in here and I want to get a shield to protect myself. He just so happened to be standing next to the tampon dispensor that sold Shields. (try exampling that use to a 7 yo boy LOL)

I was laughing so hard I nearly pee'ed my pants.
