The shame! I'll share to spare you.

FYI...(and this may be obvious to everyone but me) do not sit on your MK map while riding Splash Mountain! DH and i were at the MK recently and I was wearing a cute new pair of stone-colored shorts. Well, when we went to board I noticed a big, nasty wet footprint on the seat right where my butt would go. Clever me, I whipped out some Disney literature to protect my shorts and sat down upon it. Of course we got drenched--that is what I get for wearing the cute shorts to MK. But when we got off and I went to the restroom, I noticed my butt was now purple.

**I had my map on my pants!** Tommorowland was on the right cheek and Frontierland was on me, too. (Luckily, Fantasyland was nowhere to be seen! ) Needless to say, we left immediately.

I am sure all of you have more sense than to do this. But for those of you who don't, Clorox Colorsafe detergent worked when Cheer & Tide would not.

Well, it's a good thing you didn't have confused first-timers trying to read your butt on their way to Space Mountain.

I am sure you don't find it funny at all right now but you will always remember that trip to the MK and laugh when you think back on it.

I hope it was right side up so if anyone got lost they'd be able to look at your map and find their way.

Kidding aside, I do hope you were able to get it out of your shorts though.

ROFL!!!!!
Thanks for the laugh...I mean warning!

 

[oogieboogie]

That's simply hilarious!! Thanks for the laugh!

 

[poochie]

Hey, we kept mis-placing the maps. At least you knew where yours was!!

 

[alliecats]

I'm glad I have brought smiles & laughter to the DIS through my shame and humiliation. N.Bailey, it did come out and they are good as new, thank you for your kind wishes!

All I can say is, it was all worth it if I can save just one person from this nightmare.

Just call me "map pants."

I love the tag you got out of this warning!

Oh my goodness, I did the exact same thing at AK a few years ago. Decided to leave the park map on my lap while we went on Kali. Yeah...what an excellent idea. Like you, when the ride was over, I ended up wearing the map on my shorts, only mine was on my lap. Man did I feel like an idiot

 

[neosnightmare]

LOL. thats a great story. im glad that it came out tho. that wouldve stunk if it was permanently stuck on there.

 

[HollyJoy]

LOL!! Sorry you had that experience, but it gave me a chuckle! Glad you were able to remove the map from your pants!

Good thing you didn't sit on a Pleasure Island map.

I had a seagull poop on me once in Tomorrowland...I was forced to buy a Winnie the Pooh sweater to replace the shirt I was wearing.

Funny...it wasn't until MUCH later that I realized that I bought Pooh to cover up poo.

Try not to use a map if you visit the Grand Canyon.

 

[Breezy_Carol]

Thanks for the warning and the laugh.

Would this be what they refer to as a "relief map"?

I'm sorry...that's so funny! My DH wouldn't have let me leave the park...he would ask me to bend over to read the map! heheh

I have a habit of leaving the park map in my back pocket...totally forgetting it's back there when I go to the ladies room.

I'll leave the restroom, DH will ask "Where's the map?" Um yeah, we need another.

I dropped 5 maps in toilets in 3 days. (don't worry - i fished them out and threw them away properly.)

After that trip, we get 2 maps...and when I lose mine, I can't see his.
