We were leaving Futureworld and there was PUSH at the foot of the bridge entertaining the crowd. I started looking around for the controller and my Wife who was there for the first time and knew NOTHING about this says "He's right behind us."

I snuck a look and here's a guy right behind us in nondescript clothes and sunglasses, his right hand in a messenger bag and his left discreetly at his mouth. He moved around the crowd always keeping behind people. It was pretty cool! He knew we were on to him but still sent PUSH over to talk to us. When we left I gave him a little nod and got a smile.
 
So cool, we love push! Our autistic son is fascinated by him and spent a lot of time with him in November!

There was kids that was awful though kicking him and trying to throw punches while the parents laughed! All push could say was "oh dear looks like that kids had to much candy!!"

Dh asked him to announce the day for us and he did it with a very funny take :) zooming back and fourth to the camera saying he was ready for his close up & to make sure he goes on YouTube lol
 
We the most amazing experience with Push last summer. He joked around with DD 13 for the longest time, finally asking her to be his girlfriend, and then serenaded her while they "danced" together. The best part was when asked her on a "date" and took us into Gravity Annie's for an ice cream. It was hysterical! He had already asked DD what her favorite flavor was, so when the CM asked her what flavor she wanted, Push replied, "She wants chocolate. I know my lady." Priceless! Then he had everyone in the restaurant and watching outside sing Happy Birthday to her. It was so much fun - one if our favorite Disney memories.
 

I am madly in love with PUSH! We didn't run into him on our most recent trip but the trip before, we saw him trying to get into the queue for Space Mountain (he made them measure him) then he got in line with us to meet Stitch. My picture of my DSs with Stitch and Push is one of my all-time favorites! What a great character he is! If you've never seen him, I'd make some time to hang out in Tomorrowland and watch for him. He's such a hoot!
 
It's funny - when we went in December we remarked that we hadn't seen Push or Divine in many years. Then on our MK day, we saw Push. I'll never forget the very first time we saw him - DD15 was maybe 7 or 8 at the time. He was talking to someone else and then turned and started moving towards DD and said hello and called her by name. The look on her face was priceless - like how did he know my name.:confused3 I was even amazed - until I realized she had a lanyard around her neck with her name at the bottom. We love Push - he's awesome!
 
I have been there several times and never have never seen him :( This time I will have to make sure I spend some time looking for him!

We love PUSH and are always on the lookout for him. On our most recent trip DD12 was sitting on a rock just as you enter Tomorrowland from the Terrace Restaurant. She was patiently waiting and watching the World go by as DD10, DH, and I were trying to figure out where we were going next. Well all of a sudden, PUSH came out of nowhere and startled my DD12 (he came up behind her and started talking to her). I had never seen her jump as high as she did :rotfl:. It was the most funniest thing ever and she had a great time interacting with him after that :goodvibes.

On our January 2012 trip, we were traveling with my DILs. Well as we were all sitting down eating our ice cream cones from the ice cream place in Tomorrowland (forgot the name of it), my DMIL was wondering why a crowd was hovering around a trashcan. Both of my DDs explained to her who PUSH was and told her about his handler, which we noticed too and pointed him out to her. She thought that was crazy (in a funny way) and said only in Disney can you talk to a trashcan and they will talk back to you :goodvibes.
 
PUSH wished us a happy anniversary and made the crowd sing Happy Birthday to a very embarrassed girl who ran into the nearest restroom.

He didn't give up though. He stood at the entrance and called her name and asked that she not stand him up.

Hilarious!
 
PUSH is fantastic! Of course all the pictures of my kids hugging him didn't turn out as cool as I thought. Its hard to explain why my kids are hugging a trash can :rotfl:.

LOL, on our most recent trip there was a family taking pics with PUSH when he said "You know that in pictures I just look like a trashcan right? "
 
I saw Push surronded by a many little girls. The majority were dressed in pink.

Push: "Pink. I'm surrounded by Pink." Truly, I laughed so hard. Go on youtube he's on there a lot.:thumbsup2
 
Whether kids were toddlers or teenagers sighting of Push has always been a highlight of our trips.



He or is it she can be found around Tomorrowland. We have had the most success around Speedway area :)
 
That is so funny, loved that he stuck his tongue out at you, he knew he was busted!
