Warning-don't read this thread if you don't want to find out what could happen at the Whispering Canyon.

I am asking people to tell me what happens there if you.... or you ask for.... or you wear..... or you do this or do that or ask for this or that.

What happens?
 
For instance- I know that if you ask for ketchup I think you are made to get up and get ketchup from all the other tables or something? Or you ask for a straw you get a huge one?

BTW - I know there is no guarantee these things will happen I just want to know what could happen.
 
I've only been to WC once for lunch - However, I was able to see somebody ask for a glass of water and instead the waitress brought out a pitcher for him :thumbsup2
 
Here are a few:

Ketchup....you will be brought every bottle in the restaurant...

Straws...you will be given "plenty"

Water...a pitcher

It's a fun place to go and eat as well as having good food and plenty of it.

Having been there several times we dont usually ask for the things above, we just like to watch for newbies.
 

From another website:

Some things to try at WCC ......................

Wear a Hat or T-Shirt from Universal or Sea World
Tell your server you spent the day at an attraction outside of WDW
Tell the server whose birthday or anniversary it is
Have your kids "egg him/her on"
Have one of the males in the group ask where the restrooms are
Claim your straw is not long enough
Chew gum
Ask the server where you can buy some chewing gum in WDW
Ask for ketchup -- but be ready for a little exercise and team building!
Order a soda for breakfast.
 
We love "Screaming" Canyon....be on the cell phone when your server takes your order and see what happens.
 
But what does happen? I have read those hints and have had people say things like that but I want spoilers, what does happen if you are on your cell phone? What does happen if you wear a Sea World shirt or if you get up to go to the restroom?
 
Tell your server that you need some more Splenda packets and he/she may invite children from all tables to bring you some from their table.

I do not understand the point of this thread. To each his own, but for me--the ONLY redeeming thing about the nonsense at WCC is the surprise factor. The ketchup thing literally grates on my nerves because it is so over-done and expected. The only thing that made the antics somewhat funny for me last visit was that I hadn't seen the Splenda stunt pulled before so when I INNOCENTLY asked for more--a big, embarrassing production was made about it--and it was the SURPRISE factor that made me blush and chuckle. If I knew ahead of time that the server would do that--the whole thing would have been anti-climatic at best--annoying at worst.
 
now i just had to add the little waiter guy statue they put behind or on the side of people as they slip by..people turn and look and yell or it scares em,,its priceless!!! There like ok how did that get there?? Its too funnny!!:rotfl:
 
I agree about the spontaneity factor. My family and I had been there on our last visit in 2004, but last week we went with my whole extended family, who didn't know what to expect. While the 'old' stuff I had seen was funny, it was the new stuff that just 'happened' that made me laugh the most. For example:

At one point, an assistant server started to regularly walk past our table 'clip-clopping' his tray stand and making faces at my brother-in-law, telling him to "Watch Out!". It was hysterical. Half-way through, my BIL said to us "Next time Geno walks past, lets all scream his name". We did, Geno was STUNNED but smiling, and the restaurant manager laughed as well. We continued to holler his name every time he passed and it was one of the funniest things that happened.

Not a standard "trick" at WCC, but a way for us to play along and have fun.
 
We've only been once, on our very first trip, before I was a Disney addict and didn't know what to expect there at all....so it is pretty funny to realize what kind of place it as you're sitting there eating. And the boys at the table next to us didn't eat their veggies, so the waitress came with a roll of that yellow tape (think "police line DO NOT CROSS" tape) and proceeded to wrap the entire family up in it. Chairs, table, etc. and basically told them they couldn't leave until their plates were clean. My kids thought it was the funniest thing ever of course.
BTW: I didn't think the food was bad as previous poster suggested, I rather enjoyed the meal!! And I know a good meal when i see one! ;)
 
Here's a spoiler on what could happen to you---how about absolutely nothing!!! Yep, that's right. We ate there last week and although we enjoyed watching the antics of other wait staff at other tables, we got absolutely nothing.

Same thing happened to us. We were a party of 15 but got split up. Our waiter did nothing, while our other party got to have all the fun. My kids were a little disappointed, I was alot disappointed since I was the one who made all the dining reservations, car rentals, hotel ressies and airfare. After all my planning for everyone else, I felt I got the shaft. Hopefully this year it will be different, we are on or own!
 
I was thinking about celebrating my dd 9th bday at WCC...is that bad? Will they embarrass her?
 
We ate here about two weeks ago for my son's (17) and two of my nephews (17 and 20) birthdays. Our waitness was wonderful. She made them wear hats (rabbit, minnie mouse, birthday cake, etc.) made out of napkins, took my son's sunglasses and wore them the whole time we were there. Had my other nephew (18) ride the horse around the restaurant because he messed up one of the hats. Then made the three birthday boys get up in front of everyone and sing "I'm A Little Teapot", then everyone had to vote to see who did the best job. The one who lost had to ride the horse all around the lobby of the hotel while singing "Happy Birthday to the other two". Also, my BIL finished his drink and was given the large jar of drink, which he shared with us, this caused it to be only half full. She noticed this, and proceeded to tape a sign on his back telling people to get out of his way if he should get up to go to the restroom. This kind of stuff went on all evening, we had a blast.
