The Funniest Thing That Has Ever Happened To You?

[MadfordaMouse]

Anybody have any funny stories that happened to them at one of the Disney parks?

I have a few, but the one that sticks out in my head is when we were in DCA 2 years ago and it was the first time we had seen the Electrical parade since it moved back to CA. We decided to wait early to make sure we got really good seats and decided on a bench right outside (I think it was) Napa Rose or the Vinyard Room or something. As my DH, DD5, DD10, and myself sat and waited proudly and feeling like we just got the find of the century with this bench, we noticed people pointing when they walked by us and giggling. We didn't think anything of it until we started to notice a kind of smell, not particularly horrible but definitely not good....and it was getting stronger and worse. We thought maybe it was some kind of strong imported cheese they were using in the restaurant behind us or something. Then one group of people walked by and the guy in the group did a "thumbs up" sign at us and said "you got yourself some great seats there!" and then they all started laughing as they walked away. It wasn't until then that we realized the bench was placed over a sewer drain and we were smelling sewer the entire time!! Needless to say, we got up and walked across the street and sat there on the ground. To this day, we point and refer to that seat as the "stinky bench"

A few years ago We (the whole famliy) went to DL. It was a funny week. First, we were in line at the Storybook boat canal ride, my DN was 2 1/2 yrs. at the age that she liked to be held. I had her and DSIL said "just keep her in your arms when we get on the boat." OK. well I put my right leg into the boat and went to put my left leg in and rolled over onto the bench. DN pulled up and looked at me with wild eyes. she looked to mom and said Collee fell! she was freaked!! Also that trip it rained bad. she would not were her pupacho (she couldnt say poncho). It was a crazy trip!! We giggle about that week often.

Well it didn't happen to me but... to this day it makes me laugh. Some of you may think it's mean and for that I appologize. We (me, my husband our 16 month old son at the time, my 2 brother in laws, and my brother) were waiting for my brothers girlfriend to come out of the bathroom in adventureland by the tiki room. This lady came running out of the store there yelling "hunny, hunny, wait for me" and of course we were all looking at her. (now this was in 2000 when they had a palm tree there with these rocks around it, they have since removed the rocks) So she comes running out and i just remember her missing the fact there was rocks and trampling thru the area and tripping but still running and she fell so hard and slid like 5 feet. She ended up about 5 feet away from us and we were all in shock and my husband politly looked down at her and all he said was "SAFE". We all including the lady laughed for so long. It was so funny. Sadly though she was bleeding from both knees and elbows. Her husband was laughing too.

my husband politly looked down at her and all he said was "SAFE".

That's hilarious! I'm glad she laughed too. Sometimes, that's all you can do in those situations.

I don't know if anyone else would think this is funny, but my friends and I thought it was hilarious. Three of us were on Mr. Toad. As we returned to the unload area and were climbing out of the cars the CM at the loading area announced over the PA "Ladies and Gentlemen, we have some celebrities with us today. Charlie's Angels!" All these people whipped around to look at us and I waved. My friends and I were totally cracking up because all these people looked so confused.

 

[TinkerbellTris]

That's to funny. I would have been waving to. I love when cast members do things like that.

I don't know if this counts as hilarious, but it certainly was weird. Way back in 1975, my friend Steve and I were allowed on our first adventure unsupervised at DL. Most of the time we just ran from place to place arguing on what rides to spend our precious E tickets on. We were in TomorrowLand when suddenly we heard voices yelling in the crowd behind us. We turned around and were bowled over by a teenager running with some lady's purse. He flew over us and went head first into one of the large planters they had there at the time, whacking his face. From out of nowhere came people with radios and they took over the situation. They helped Steve and I up and led us quickly to a stairwell (I had no idea it was there.) They were questioning the lady whose purse had been snatched and were detaining the punk, who was looking a little worse for wear. The security made sure we were okay, asked where our parents were, then gave us 3, count them 1-2-3, E Tickets a piece and sent us on our way. Not a bad reward for being a human speed bump. I still can't believe someone was stupid enough to purse snatch at DL.

I was involved in an unfortunate incident with a can of squirt cheese while on a DL vacation. I was sitting on the bed and the rest of the family was having a quick snack of cheese and crackers. Yes, I know if is questionable whether stuff in a can can be rightly called cheese, but I'll get on with my story. Suddenly there was a whoosing sound and I felt something hit my eye. I scream, "my eye, my eye" and my family was laughing so hard I literaly didn't exactly know what had happened. Seems the can misfired the cheese substance and it projected across the bed and into my eye rather than on to its' intended target, a Club Cracker.

I blamed the defective can of cheese food for a long time, but recently decided maybe it was just me. I was in a doctor's office who had a squirt thing of Purell by the door. Being fairly freakish about germs I decided to give myself a good cleaning while waiting for the doctor. I pushed and pulled and nothing came out. I tried to visually inspect the bad dispenser and low and behold it was the cheese incident all over again. From out of nowhere all the Purell I'd be trying to get came plopping out into my ...yep, eye. Again down halls, different though this time, people could here my cries, "My eye, my eye."

My3Kids---I am so sorry but I am still laughing after 5mins even the cat is looking at me funny!!

I loved the cheese story. That "cheese" can be a hazard! And maybe your eye needed to be cleaned and you just didnt know.

 

[50thisyeartoo!]

GOT TOTALLY SOAKED ON THE WATER RIDE AT dca...my jeans kept falling down...they stretched out of shape...and my mascara ran down my face. I felt like something out of a horror movie.

Ahh...the stories of squirt cheese and late nights! Let me just say on a HS ski trip one classmate was dubbed Cheesehead for the remainder of the schoolyear, squirt cheese made this possible!

I cried a little when I read that story.

Mine isn't that funny, but I CAN laugh about it now. When I was 16, my g-parents took everyone to DL. Every family member came plus my GF from HS. We went off on our own & were to meet the fam for lunch at Big Thunder BBQ (?). My GF & I waited & waited & waited....no parents, g-parents, etc ever showed. Then a bird pooped on me.

Finally we left & my Grandma said, "Oh we just decided to eat somewhere else" - thanks for telling me Gram!! I was a mad 16 yo girl with bird poo on my shirt, my GF thought it was hilarious! It took me awhile to find the humor in having to wear bird poo for the whole day.

K' Same trip - different instance. More weird than funny haha.... Aunt Flo made a surprise visit. I'm in the stall with nothing, no change & asked my GF (in the next stall) to pass me a feminine hygiene product (I'm trying to be as delicate as possible here), she did, I went along my merry way & told my GF outside where I met her, thanks for the help in there. She was confused, turned out she didn't give me the product - that means some woman anonymously passed me a sanitary napkin! I was a little weirded out by that - though very thankful.

The cheese story is hilarious!! I couldn't stop laughing!

I just remembered one:

We saw the Aladdin show in DCA a couple years ago and it was awesome! There was one part where Aladdin and the genie meet and Aladdin is suppose to jump out the window onto his magic carpet or something. Instead, Aladdin looks at the genie and turns and takes a flying leap out the window, getting his foot caught on the window ledge and tripping through head-first with his legs tangled and landing with a big "ooof" on the other side. The genie started laughing, which set off the giggles in the audience and said "you alright there, Al? Did you have a nice trip?" and made jokes about it to Aladdin throughout the entire show! Poor Aladdin looked embarrassed but couldn't help but smile and shake his head every time the genie brought it back up. One of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I shouldn't even mention this in fear that someone will then know it was me that did this.......

Okay we were at MGM and half of our group left the park about 20-30 minutes before the rest of us. I knew that we had time to get to the buses and get back to the hotel so we were not in a hurry. As we came upon the bus section there was a bus getting ready to leave so my cousin who is 14 ran down to the bus so that we could possibly made it on that bus. The bus ends up leaving without us on it....no big deal I think to my self..we will catch the next one. Then my husband calls my cell phone and tells me that they are on the bus that just left and that the bus driver told them that was the last bus for the night...I am confused we continue to the bus stop, and almost immediately a new bus comes and we jump on. I then notice that the original bus with my husband and the rest of our group had come back around the turn for us. Now I am totally embarrassed and there is no way that I am getting off the bus that we are on to get on their full bus of people that I don't know. We decide to stay put on our bus as the first bus goes by us, EVERYONE in their bus booed us because we did not get on their bus. The whole way back to OKW I was worried that everyone would be at our bus stop "looking" for us! I can't believe that I confessed that to the boards, Hopefully no one knows anything about it!

The first time my parents let me--and the friend of mine who came along--go alone in the park was back in 1985. (It was the summer before 7th grade)

I had just purchased a Donald Duck hat and was waiting for my friend to come out of the store in Tomorrowland... Just as he got to my side, a Cast Member stepped up and said, "Excuse me boys, can you come with me, please?"....

Fast forward; my mom, uncle and grandmother joined us in the backlot area and it was explained that my friend was caught shoplifting--fortunately they made a point to say that they saw me at the cash register with my things...

So; the first night of a 2 day stay at the park ended with me doing laps in the Anaheim Hilton pool to "cool off"...

After that; (needless to say) I chose a new friend to come along with me on our monthly trips to Disneyland......

Michael...

Next trip to Disneyland Oct 29 - Nov 4.
Disneyland Hotel; 2 BR Suite.

With: Mom, 2 brothers, Sis-in-law, her mom and nephew....

You're not a stranger and telling you about it is much different than you being on the bus and a stranger. Besides which, you would have been embarrassed too!

I remember back in high school my friends and I wanted to ride the Jungle Cruise at night. There wasn't any line so we decided to go before we left the park. Well just as one of my friends had walked under the entrance way, a huge plastic tarantula dropped from the ceiling and dangled in front of her face! She let out a startled scream and she looked like she was going to have a heart attack! Just then 2 or 3 CM's (all guys btw) started chuckling. I guess they were bored and wanted to play a prank and tied a piece of rope to the fake tarantula. If it were me I know I would have freaked too! Still, it was a funny experience!
