What was the most embarassing or hilarious moment you had at WDW?

[Tony Toon]

DS picked the most inopportune moment - going round castaway creek at Typhoon Lagoon - to have a giant nosebleed. Can you imagine the effect . The CM's certainly moved like lightning to clean up and appeared very sympathetic - but I wonder what they were really thinking.

We've been to WDW a couple of times with DW's sis and her family. DBIL has been a constant source of (unintentionally) humorous moments. One such was while standing in line for Test Track and joining in conversation with a friendly American family of African/American extraction. They were asking about Scotland, our home country, when DBIL informed them in all innocence, that although Scotland is very beautiful and worth a visit, it wasn't the place to go for a suntan.

Mine's not embarassing, but it tickled all of us.

We had these plasitc sport top water bottles that we bought at Walmart and took with us. When you held them upright and squeezed the, they shot out a blast of cold air. We were waiting for the train at AK and were a little warm, so I was poofing the cold water in everyone's face too cool us off.

When it was DS almost 3's turn I didn't think about the fact that he was lower down and I had to tilt the bottle to get to him. Well, I squeezed and instead of air, he got a face full of icy water! Luckily, he is a really easy-going kid and just laughed with the rest of us. Just be sure to send the Mom-of-the-Year award my way!

That is too funny, I can just picture that!! Thanks for the laugh!!!

When my DD was three, (she's now sixteen and probably getting tired of this story) we were waiting in line for the Tower of Terror and there was a problem, so we ended up just standing in the same place for quite a while. The people behind us were older and were speaking Spanish. DD was taken with their conversation, although she did not speak Spanish, and sort of moved back into one of those corners by the greenery, I guess so she could hear better. She was just standing there, facing us, but listening to them, and suddenly she jumps up and lands like the open part of a jumping jack and yells 'CALIENTE!!' in an accent very much like the people were using. We just looked at her, shocked, and the people looked at her like she was the rudest thing they had ever seen. Here's this tiny, redheaded kid yelling at them, apparently, in their language. She was a huge Sesame Street fan and had heard that word before on television. My daughter is now studying Spanish in high school, something her older sister and I continue to get a big kick out of, since she's been fluent in 'conversational Spanish' since she was three.

I can remember one year when I was younger (before getting married), my family, including my sister, bil and twin niece & nephew went to WDW. Well, my nephew had an intestinal virus. Basically, he had the diarrhea - and badly. He was still in diapers. My bil was holding him...getting things ready to go to the restroom to change him when things sort of got out of his control. With the video camera rolling, my other sister caught this on film; my dear nephew had an "accident" all down the side of my dear bil!! Of course, we were all too busy laughing at him to put the camera down!!

Another time, on my honeymoon actually, we were leaving Illuminations and all I could smell was "septic". I said to my newly betrothed DH, "wow, they are having a serious septic problem". To which I received a chuckle and a "just keep walking honey" I started laughing I was crying. I couldn't believe it. And if any of you were walking out of EPCOT one October night in 1990, I apologize!!!

I was running so everyone told me to slow down but i was sorta on a disney high but it had just rained and I sliped tearing a hole in the knee of my jeans. On the bright side it added a kool look to my jeans.

Last year we were leaving our room at POFQ early on an EMH day. As we were exiting our room the Dad in the room next store was bringing breakfast back to his family. He opens the door and this little boy maybe 3yo comes running out naked! Yelling "Shakeit, Nakeit!" OMG We laughed sooo hard.

 

[PrincessJasmine1972]

Welcome! So, when do you plan on going to WDW?

hello.. Well...as soon as I can convince my DH that it isnt going to be as expensive as he thinks it is to go, I will hopefully start planning soon.. I am going to all of the sites I can find to get money saving tips and be able to still have a nice vacation.

 

[disneymagic16]

I screamed,"OH GOD, OH GOD!" all the way sown Space mtn.

Good for you! What I have found to be very cost effective for me is the following:

1) Go online to find the best airfare deal; select the exact days/times/flights you want.

2) Call Disney Travel and give them your flight information from #1. I have found that they honor the best American Airlines flight prices, plus I feel more comfortable with Disney handling it at no additional charge.

3) Use your AAA (if you don't have this, you might want to consider it) for hotel reservations (again, through Disney Travel). I am staying at Pop Century in September for $61 a night ($68 with tax). Sometimes they even run a special to bring it down further.

4) Bring Juicy Juice boxes and bagels in your travel bag -- it is a fast and very inexpensive breakfast!

5) Like you said, stay on these board and mousesavers.com for great deals and ideas!

Enjoy! Hope to see you soon!

I know this did not embarass DD (then 4), but it sure embarassed me and DH! We were standing in line for something (don't remember what) and my DD let one rip; it was loud. As the other guests around us are stifling giggles, I said to her, "DD what do you say?" She looks up at me and in a very loud, sing song voice says, "Excuse me, I farted!" I thought the guests around us were going to die they were trying so hard not to laugh! I looked at them, shrugged my shoulders, and said, "It's ok to laugh!" Then I started laughing myself which of course had everyone around us actually laughing instead of trying to hide it!

When you can't beat them, join them!

LOL @ the rootin' tootin' dd!

our most "embarrassing" moment had to be when dh was selected to be the grand finale at HDDR... as if it was not bad enough, when we boarded the resort bus back to pop, the entire bus stood up and clapped and cheered for him... it's a wonder i can get him to go back! LOL!

I've got two I can think of right now. Knowing me, I am sure there are many more I can't recall at the moment.

First, we were in line for that now-extinct boatride at Animal Kingdom. There was a foreign couple behind us. The lady was making small talk with us a bit. I couldn't understand a lot of what she was saying, though. So she starts pointing at me and saying "How much?" I'm confused at first and just do the RCA dog look and she asks "How much?" again. I'm thinking she's rudely asking how much I weigh! Great! I say "I don't know!" Then...I realize she's asking about my new Sony Mavica digital camera that's hanging around my neck.


Second, at the Moroccan bathroom in Epcot I was trying to purchase a "feminine product". Well, just by me saying those words you know this is going to be bad. So, I put in my quarters. Nothing. Start fiddling with the levers. Nothing. A custodial staff person (nice Asian lady - maybe too nice) comes in and asks what happened. I just explained I was trying to buy a "feminine product" and it ate my quarters. So she directs me out of the bathroom and into the Moroccan pavilion. I dunno what she's planning on doing at this point. She goes up to the cashiers in one of the shops in the pavilion and tells ME to tell the CM what happened in the bathroom. I don't want $.50 that much!!! I keep telling her "No, it's OK!" But she insists! I sheepishly have to explain that the "feminine product" machine in the bathroom took my quarters. The shopkeeper looks at us both like we're insane and starts talking to another CM there in their native language. My face is red hot by now and all I wanna do is run for it. But she opens the cash register and gives me the quarters. I could have died.

Mine isn't funny... I hit a young girl in the back of the legs with my DS's stroller She stopped short in front of us and I wasn't paying attention. I felt just awful. To make matters worse, her mother started yelling at the girl. I think she was already having a miserable day because her mom was so crabby and she was wearing black jeans and a black tee shirt on an 80 degree day. People around us were staring at me. I just looked directly at the young girl and apologized and told her it was not her fault at all. That happened over 6 years ago and I still feel bad about it!

 

[MidNite]

Another one, not so funny either. It New Years Day the first year Disney-MGM Studios was open. I was with my friend in line at the Star Tours ride. There were two teenage couples behind us and one of the guys kept pinching my butt and making fun of me for my size. I don't understand how someone can do things like that.

 

[Mom2AAA's]

This didn't happen to me, but my Dad.
He was in the bathroom in his room and I guess didn't hear the maid come in to clean and make the beds. So... out strolls my Dad with his bathingsuit around his ankles to get his Gold Bond powder.

Well he looks at her ~ she looks at him ~ They both scream at the top of their lungs! The poor tramitized (sp) maid throws up her towel screaming "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry" in broken english running out of the room... my dad turns and tries to run back into the bathroom tripping on his bathingsuit around his ankles...

When he got back to the pool he was laughing and crying so hard he could barely speak, so needless to say he spent the entire rest of the vacation peering around the corners to make sure the maid was nowhere in site.

We've had many funny/embarrassing moments, although many escape me right now, but on this last trip my brother totally embarrassed me. Keep in mind him & I (both adults) always try to "one-up" each other with things like this.

We on the tram from the parking lot to the park in MGM. When we were ready to get off the CM was announcing "Please exit to the driver's right".

Well, I had been in a daze & just daydreaming a little so I get up & start to exit to the left. Wouldn't you know that before I realize what I am doing, my brother sees me & in his LOUDEST VOICE EVER screams "to the right, the man said exit to the right". EVERYONE, & I mean everyone on the tram turned & looked at me, with one lady saying "Wow, way to embarrass you, huh?" I could have killed him.

Oh my gosh, that's terrible!! I can't believe he had the nerve to touch you! I would've found the nearest CM and explained the situation.. or turned around and told him if he found my bottom that sexy that I'd glady sit on his lap during the ride!
