And I thought my DH would go to extreme measures for free food. He won't be able to top this. Sorry no free ice cream you deserve it .

OK, now that's even more gross then I imagined...........

WOW! Thanks for posting the pic to give the visual! DH and I are celebrating our anniversary at WDW in Oct...if I am mad at him I may have to book a ressie there! I'm sooooo glad the wifey doesn't have to roll the meatball - I'd probably snort it up laughing and end up going to the WDW emergency for a complicated meatball-removal surgery...I wonder if then I would get a free nose job???

Oh well - you deserve the free ice cream...you really do...seriously...deserve...ice cream

 

[Booknut]

That really made my morning!

You must really love ice cream!!! I think what you did was cute, messy, but cute!

 

[PlutoLuvr]

Aww, that's adorable!

 

[Luv2Roam]

I agree -- you deserved something for that!
Great magical moment! Nice to see someone who Gets It and likes to have fun .

 

[scrump]

You totally deserved ice cream!!!!!

I wasn't really sure how to picture it when I first read the post, but the photo really warmed me up. Way to enjoy the magic and have fun!

I think it is great. I am thinking of all the goofy things we have done in WDW. We have not rolled a meatball but we have danced with characters, skipped down main street, stood under the umberlla in MGM etc. I love that you rolled your meatball with your nose!!

although I do consider "Butch" a close personal friend, he is not a family member!!!

The real POOCH!!

 

[HeatherPage]

He is called Butch in the movie at the Italian restaurant (how would they know his name was actually Tramp).

 

[Mousema]

Cute! Did you win girlfriend points?

 

[mikesdisneymom]

Ahh how cute

 

[2nd childhood]

Very cute. It shows you're not afraid to enjoy the magic even if it gets a bit messy.

Hahah, thanks for the warm response... Enjoying the Disney magic is way better than some free ice cream!

If ya haven't heard of this before, here's proof that I'm not crazy nor am I making this up! This is an excerpt from someones trip report over at mouseplanet.com:

We went swimming for awhile, showered up and returned to the Magic Kingdom for supper at Tony's Town Square. This restaurant is modeled after the restaurant in Lady and the Tramp. They took us to our table which was decorated with confetti and streamers (they knew we were on our honeymoon). We were absolutely starving by this time (we pretty much snacked our way through lunch with pretzels and ice cream) and we devoured the bread they put on the table. Brian ordered the spaghetti and meatballs and I had the Pollo alla Marsala (chicken with wild mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes). We shared a dessert but neither of us can remember what it was! Towards the end of our meal our waitress asked if they could do a cheer for us since we were celebrating our honeymoon. We agreed and a few minutes later another waitress came to our table and announced to the whole restaurant that it was our honeymoon and that on the count of three everybody in the restaurant is supposed to say, "That's Amore". And when they say "That's Amore" Brian has to roll a meatball across the table to me with his nose! (Just like Tramp does for Lady in the movie.) I was laughing quite hard but it was super cute!!!

No mention of the free dessert, but it does suggest that the CMs know about it -- or at least they did back in 2002.

Hehe, I'm glad to see you found some other mention of this, because it is certainly something I've never heard of before.

Very cute! Your girlfriend is lucky to have a guy who's romantic and not afraid to be goofy about it. (Get it, Goofy, Disney World--I crack myself up!)

Anyway, I would have given you ice cream--you earned it!
