Your most embarrasing moment at WDW

[BCVOwner2002]

Last year, DH and I had dinner at H&V with the Fantasmic dinner package. This was our first time ever eating there. We had early seating and when we sat down the CM explained the set up and off we went to get our food. While at the buffet, DH happened to notice there was an ice cream bar where he could make his own sundae and as soon as his plate was empty (I was still eating my dinner) he headed for the ice cream. Now let me explain that DH is a BIG kid!! He quickly got a bowl and filled it with vanilla ice cream and then headed around to the toppings! He was in heaven! The only problem was after he made his sundae and was walking back around to make sure he didn't miss anything he realized he forgot to shut off the ice cream and there was a HUGE pile of vanilla ice cream and the machine was still on. He ran over and shut off the ice cream and turned around to see a CM standing there looking at him. He told the CM some kid left the machine on but DH was standing there with a big sundae and there were no kids even near the sundae bar!

The Hall of Presidents seems to be a popular place for embarassing moments. We have 4 kids and when one of the twins was 6 years old we are sitting there watching the program..just as happy as can be. Then suddenly my daughter jumps up and down, pointing at the stage and hollers in a VERY VERY loud voice ...."MOM that is the man that LIED and did BAD things!" This was right after the Clinton debaucle. I yanked her down quickly and crawled as invisibly as possible into the back of my seat...while the entire theatre burst out laughing!!

The joys of children!

Which one did he mean? It could be any of them.

That is sooo funny.

The same thing happended to my DS9 at 1900 Park Fare. He came back to the table with a huge bowl of vanilla ice cream and then I went to the sundae bar for mine. When I got to the ice cream dispenser it had a huge pile of vanilla ice cream and was STILL going. With a little effort (You had to push the lever HARD) I stopped it and then chose the chocolate to avoid looking like I had created the vanilla mess. Just then a CM came and teasingly blamed me for the mess. In my heart I was almost sure I knew who had created the mess because my son had come back to the table with a funny look on his face. When I got back to the table I questioned him and he said he couldn't get the ice cream to stop and apparently he had panicked.

Well, I guess I'll post my most embarassing moment too.

At the Mousegears shop at EPCOT, there are a number of "windows" around the top of the room with shiloettes of Disney characters working and talking. Well, late one night after a long day in the parks I was walking through the shop and heard some voices coming out of a door marked "Dressing Rooms". I thought "How cleaver of Disney to have a fake dressing room door with character voices coming out of it." and stood by the door listening, trying to figure out which character was talking (I guessed Daisy). Well, imagine my surprise when the door knob beings to turn! Oh, no! it was a real dressing room! I ran away quickly enough that I was far away when whoever was inside the room came out. I can only imagine that people watching all this must have thought I was some sort of wierdo or peeping tom!

OK--time for me to add mine.

It was Sept. 1999 and my son was 2 1/2, and I was 7 months pregnant with my daughter. We were standing in a pretty long line for Dumbo, and I started talking with the woman in line in front of me who had a daughter about 3. In fact, I remember that we were talking about when a child is ready to be moved from a crib and into a regular bed, which my son had just done because I would soon need the crib for the new baby. She said that her daughter needed to move out of her crib, too.

By looking at the woman, I thought that the reason why was obvious -- she also CLEARLY looked as if she was about 7 months pregnant (which I should know, right?). So I asked her, "And when is your baby due". My reply was absolute silence, coupled with a never ending stare. Not pregnant. Oops!

The worst part about this was that we were stuck in line next to each other for the next 15 or so minutes. I considered leaving the line, but we had already waited for a while and my son would not have understood. In between my silent rantings to myself at what an idiotic thing to say, I tried to comfort myself with the knowledge that I would never see the woman again. Which, thankfully, I did not.

Needless to say, I have never asked that question again, even to someone who looks 10 months pregnant!

A few years ago at Typhoon Lagoon I was floating down the lazy river and 2 young boys from England happened to be next to me; One states loudly to the other (in his cute British accent) "that lady has big bosoms!" He kept saying it over & over. I'm not THAT large-- so I casually look around me to see who he could be talking about and sure enough in that area I was the only one around! I just acted like I didn't hear him. His Mom came running up and made the boys get out of the river scolding them for "being naughty"! The funny thing is she was wearing a very skimpy leopard print bikini and I was in a very conservative/covered up one piece.

umm...last year at MNSSHP I was dressed as Sally and pg with DD #2....walking down Main Street I stepped in one of those darn tracks and busted my butt....I was more worried about who saw me than being hurt...

Just yesterday I followed a guy into the men's room by the Rockin' Roller Coaster. I was busy reading the back of his shirt.

The most embarrasing thing that has happened to me happened about 20 years ago (give or take). We took my Grandmother to WDW and we went to EPCOT. Now, she couldn't handle all the walking so we had to get her one of the wheelchairs. Well, I thought I was bigger than I was and I said that I could handle pushing her around. Well, we started going down a slight hill and it was more than I could handle. We ended up running into another lady. We all apologized time and time again. I am not for sure if she left the park or if she went and got herself a wheelchair but I do remember that she walked away with a limp. I felt terrible and no one in my family has let me live that down since. I hope she was ok.

My family took our first trip to WDW in July. After 2 weeks of riding the trams at various parks, I still had no idea that there was a real person at the back of the tram giving out instructions. I had just always thought it was a recording! Anyway, our last day in Florida we went to MK, because that was the park we had started with. Anyway, this time we sat right at the very back in front of the REAL person giving out instructions. I still didn't notice. He starts talking and I still don't clue in. During a lull in his speech, my sis and I were talking about something dumb and he laughs. I whirl around with a look of pure shock. I turn to my sis and say "Oh my god! It's not a recording!" My family and the Tram Man are now laughing at me quite loudly. I whirl back around, still shocked and to top it off I saw "You...You're a real boy!" My sis was laughing so hard she almost fell off the tram. I felt like such an idiot.

Ok I have to come clean I have 2 First was when I was about 7 or 8 and I had been Tom Sawyers Island needee to use the restroom waited in line forever then when it was finally my turn I ran into the stall and as soon as I shut the door I couldn't hold it I was soaking wet but luckily I had on satin rainbow shorts so you couldn't tell. My parents didn't even know until a few years ago. LOL!!!

the next was just this past my may, my Niece loves to make fun of people but anyway we were in the Main street Candy shop getting Carmel apples I ordered the apples to go so they would wrap them but I guess because the lady was foreign I was doing sign language to the affect of holding my hand to the side of my mouth like I was eating the carmel apple and rotating it around and taking bites out of every side. My DN yelled what are you doing and I said nothing and she screamed why are you making those funny gesture's I told her to be quite she didn't know what she was talking about because I didn't even realize I was doing it let alone why I was doing it. Now when anyone does something stupid she looks at me and makes the rotating apple signal.
