Stupidest Thing u have done at Disney

The dumbest thing I ever did at WD was stubbing my toe on my son's shoe and ripping my toenail 90% off. At least I had the good sense to do it on the second to last ride. Then after the first aid worker said "make sure you follow up with your dr at home", I'm thinking "yeah yeah yeah, pay $ so the dr can tell me, 'yup it's gonna fall off'" It ended up infected and I had to be on antibiotics twice and have the nail surgically removed.
This is slightly OT (not at WDW) but really funny. I went to Target on my lunch hour from work and I was looking for a slip. I looked all thru the lingerie and found nothing, finally a clerk told me they don't sell them there. So I start shopping with my coworker, walked all over the Target. When I was in the toothpaste aisle looking for floss, these teens started just laughing their butts off. I thought, "silly kids" shrugged and walked on. In the next aisle one of the teenage boys came up to me and said "um ma'am you have panties on your back" I guess while I was looking thru the lingerie I bumped a dispaly and had managed to hook on the back of my black coat, the tiniest most neon orange and pink thong panties. I walked all the way thru Target like that, not one grown up told me. Thank goodness the teenage boy did because I can't imagine explaining that one to store security.

Two things for me, but not really funny ones...

I am the official carrier of the "keys to the world", etc. Well, instead of carrying a fanny pack I decided to carry it all in one of those lanyard FP holder thingys. After a while the plastic hole broke thru and I was carrying the little plastic thing in my pocket. At some point after paying to eat in the MK, I must have laid it down on our try at it got thrown in the trash or something. I realized about an hour later that I had lost it. It was all our "keys"(except for DH, who just happened to have his), My driver's license and my debit card. It was never found and we wasted a total of about 3 or 4 hours looking for it and getting the keys replaced. This trip I am going back to the FANNY PACK.


#2...

DH just took an impromptu trip to WDW about a month ago. We left our older DD's at home, but brought our 2 1/2 yo with us. We went to Toon Town on our MK day to give her time to play. After riding Goofy's Barnstormer, we went over to the playground by the train station. DH and a friend went to the restroom, so I stayed with DD and watched her play. I had my eyes on her pretty much EVERY second...and she knew where I was, also. When I saw DH and friend walking back I went to the other side of the playground to get their attention so they knew exactly where we were. I wasn't thinking about DD not knowing where I was. The three of us stood and talked, while keeping our eyes on DD. At some point we ALL stopped watching her long enough for something to happen(believe me, this was all of about 30-60 seconds). All of a sudden she was GONE! I ran to the other side of the play area and was looking out onto the road when I hear a CM yell, "Has anyone lost a child?"... WHEW! It was DD! She was across the street with the CM, crying because she had seen a spider on the slide(hates 'em, hates 'em) but I had moved so she couldn't find me. Nominate ME for the Worst Mother of the Year Award! The CM was wonderful, and when she found out how scared DD had been of the spider(this is what she kept talking about...and still does), besides losing me...the CM asked if she had gotten to see Mickey yet...we said no(we know the line is long here and we usually see him at a character meal for that reason). She proceeded to take us in the building where Mickey's meet is(can't remember the name) and walk us to the front of the line(sort of...she walked us past the main line and into the room with Mickey, where we waited at the end of the line)...I was happy for DD but I felt INCREDIBLY GUILTY becasue if I had told her where I was, this wouldn't have happened. Needless to say, she will never have to go thru that again!

I do not know how paste prior posts or even link to prior posts, but there is a hilarious post about a woman and a swim suit. If you do a search on "swimsuit down", you will find it.

I can't believe I'm going to tell this. While waiting to get into Animal Kingdom, my dd wanted Chip and Dale's autograph. I had read here on the dis that you should ask the characters questions, and let them be, well, in character! So, standing there with several kids and parents, I (foolishly) asked Chip and Dale..."Hey guys, where do you keep your nuts?"....Then I turned about 14 shades of purple as they stopped...looked at me...and then tried to maintain composure while laughing on the inside. I felt like sliding through the sidewalk.

I"m laughing sooooo hard that my DH
asked what I was doing in here.

I'll never live this down, since my parents love to bring it up at family gatherings...


My first trip to WDW was in 1986, I was 5. My sister (9 at the time) and I were waiting forever to get on Dumbo. For some reason, we really wanted a purple Dumbo - it had to be purple. So they release the gate, and my sister runs and gets the first purple Dumbo she sees. She starts yelling to me to hurry or I'm going miss it (aah, if I only knew then what I knew now), and I believed her, so I started running - fast.

Next thing I know, I am flat on my back on the pavement looking up at the night sky. According to my (then horrified) mother, I was running so fast and so determined to get to that purple Dumbo before it was "too late," I connected with one of Dumbo's ears and was knocked out cold!

Apparently my mother started screaming and going nuts, but I was only out for a few seconds (from what she tells me, a CM didn't even notice), I got up and got onto the purple Dumbo (and quite enjoyed myself, actually).

Now that my parents can look back and be amused, they like to point out that I was actually airborne as my body kept going but Dumbo's ear kept the rest of me still....it was 20 years ago, but I remember wanting to get on that Dumbo, and I remember waking up on the pavement...it's weird that I can remember that.

Luckily I got checked out later and was okay (well, I guess that's up for debate now...perhaps that injury led to my current Disney obsession?)

Glad to be of service, MinnyGranny62...lol. I believe that was the most embarassing moment in my life...lol.

One night exDGF and I drank MANY Kungalooshes at the Adventurers Club , and I was, well, Smashed. Made it safely back to the resort and slept it off...the next day I had the mother of all hangovers. Instead of laying in bed, like I should have...I decided to drag my nearly lifeless carcass out of bed (hey, who wants to waste a day at WDW in bed???...honeymooners excluded) We went to Epcot and was I pretty excited to ride Mission Space for the first time...I was not feeling my best, but figured, "Hey...Its a DISNEY ride...How bad could it be?"
Needless to say, I didn't think it was possible, but my hangover got WORSE. Water and half a pretzle were all I could tolerate to eat 4 HOURS LATER! Live and Learn.

[disgal1]

but you all don't know me so hear goes,

did a solo Keys to the Kingdom tour( which was great)
at the beginning, the guide asked us to say who we were, where we were from, and our favorite character.

Mine is Donald Duck, I was last, and guess I started kind of daydreaming about my plans for after the tour. the guide pointed at me and I just froze. absolutely froze.

Nothing came to mind, and I ( a huge disney nut) yell out Daffy Duck!
Everyone let out a collective gasp, and we started off on the tour.
I knew I had just done something wrong, and it didn't dawn on me till a few minutes later! I didn't want to blurt out Donald , I meant Donald!!!!

I stewed over that the whole tour.

what a dope I can be!!!! I don't even like daffy duck!!

Last September I was at MGM with my 2 friends. well, one of them had to run to the bathroom and as my other friend and I were waiting, we realized that there was no line to see Mike and Sully, so we ran up there quick to get our picture taken. Well, the space they have seems quite small and Sully is quite big. We were trying to smush in and while trying to put my arm around Mike I punched him in his eye! I finally managed to get my arm around him and we got our picture... Well, when reenacting the story to our friend that had been indisposed, I flung my arm out like I was putting it around Mike and smacked some lady walking by in the face! She was very nice about it, but I was mortified! It was not a good day for me!!!! I kept my hands at my sides the rest of the day

Last August, DBF and I did the Segway tour at epcot. Dan was looking forward to this part of the trip more than any other. We had the 8:30 AM tour so we were rushing around in the morning because it was so early. I only had time to drink a propel water and eat a nutra-grain bar. The first hour of the tour is "learning" how to ride the Segways. By the second hour which is the really fun part when you get to ride around Epcot, I was not feeling so hot because I had not eaten enough and in was 80 some degress. Well, we get to the American Adventure and I have to get off my Segway because I was about to pass out. I layed on a park bench while the nice tour guide ran and got me an orange juice. Let me tell you, I felt like a complete idiot. I normally eat more in the morning but we just didn't have time. I finally caught up with the rest of the group after I came around on the OJ, and the rest of the trip was great. From now on I am taking food and drink with me at all times.

My DH will tell you that my famous words are "Leave me alone, I know what I'm doing"... this said prior to inserting a knife in the toaster, etc.
On our first trip to WDW after we were married, I insisted on wearing the cute little flat Keds sneakers. I thought they looked very "Laura Petrie". DH wanted me to get some nice walking athletic shoes. No way.
Of course, I proceed to get blisters the size of golf balls on my feet. Not able to walk for one whole day, we spent it riding around on the monorail and making stops at some of the resorts. Not fun.
After our stay at WDW, we went to visit my great aunt in Sarasota (a retired nurse) who took one look at the blisters and told me to go dangle my feet in the salt water bay. Ouch!!! But yes, they healed quickly.
Now I reward myself for each WDW trip planned with new Saucony sneakers, so they are nicely broken in prior to our visit. No more blisters, ever!!

Most ignorant thing I have done was first trip to WDW (before I knew any better): Drove up from south of Tampa in the morning, but not too early. Got to MK about 10:00. Stood in long line to buy tickets. Did not actually enter the park until after 11:00. Then did a late lunch (1:00 or so) in the castle (this was before it was a character lunch) and an early dinner (4:45) at the Liberty Tree Tavern to see the characters. Left shortly after. Did very little in park before/after these meals, so we basically spent close to 4 hours driving round trip to have two meals.

Stupidest things I have really done: Lost my Disney Rewards card (with about $450 on it) and left my daughter's ticket/room card in a Fastpass machine. This happened on successive days during our trip last month and replacement cards were obtained without too much trouble. However, it was still some not very smart things to do.

Lost my shoe -
