When we've been there we've had lots of ketchup brought to our table, they've brought us HUGE jars of soda when we asked for refills, they've stuck straws in my grandaugher's hair to make her look like the Statue of Liberty, we've had straws thrown at us, our waitress made our whole section stand up and do the Hokey Pokey, we've seen people with birthdays have to run around the restaurant on a stick pony singing Happy Birthday to themselves, we've had my son called "Coke Boy" and ordered to drink all of his huge soda when the waitress brought him a refill, that same visit after we did the Hokey Pokey, our waitress leaned over and asked my grandaughter if her dad was married. When she told him no, she had my son and GD carry all of our ketchup bottles over to two young ladies tables who had refused to get up for the Hokey Pokey. Just as they got to the table the waitress, screamed out, "He's single girls, grab him". I don't know who was more embarrassed my son or the young ladies. We've seen all the men have to stand up and sing, 'I'm a Little Teapot', we've seen three couples picked at random and brought up to the front of the restaurant for a "Kissing Contest", and when I was eating lunch there solo this past May, the waiter felt sorry for me and brought me out a little wooden man in a chef's hat to be my dining partner. The place is alot of fun, but can get a little embarrassing and over the top if you are not into that sort of thing.
My trip with my son and GD, I had not told them anything about Whispering Canyon so they had no idea about the antics. You should have seen his face, when right after we walked in, the waitress on her knees playing with a group of little girls suddenly looked at him and yelled, "I'll get to ya' when I get around to it", then threw our straws across the table, and asked "What do you want sonny?". When he looked sortof blank and said, "a menu?", she called out, "What do you think I am, a waitress?" His look as he haltingly said 'yes', was priceless. I was shocked that my normally quiet and very reserved son got up to do the Hokey Pokey, but when I mentioned it to him, he laughed and said he was too scared not to. There was no telling what 'that crazy waitress' would do if he didn't. He round up loving it and insisted that I take his younger brother and sister-in-law there a few months later, when I took them to WDW.
