Dumbest Thing You've Heard a Guest Say

[dweezil78]

Person 1: "Where is The Indiana Jones Ride?"
Person 2: "Oh it's over there [pointing], in Jungleland."

To this day I cringe a little inside whenever I think about this conversation.

Edit: I once heard a guest at Epcot ask how to get from the park to "Disney World". Um, you're already at Disney World, dummy.

I don't know... conversations like that are a good reminder of how much the average guest doesn't care about any of this stuff!

A few ones.

I remember someone saying they should ride the boat ride in the house (POTC). --Its at least a fair description.

Someone asking where Space Mountain was. --This was in Shanghai Disneyland....they were about to be sorely disappointed.

Why Harry Potter wasn't in Disneyland too? --Yeah WHY???????

How come you can't use your Universal AP to enter Disneyland? --Its an Annual pass, not a passport for theme parks.

Is that a real hotel? --Someone asking about TOT at DCA. I'm guessing that was common.

And my biggest favorite of all time:

How do those guys stay in the same position like that all day? --Someone asking about the AAs on POTC the row in front of me. It wasn't a kid but a full grown woman. The magic of Disney I guess.

What's scary is the fact that people like this get driver's licenses and are allowed to vote.

This is easy: “how magical is _____?”

The first year Indy was open, two geeky teenage guys ahead of me in line were discussing how the Rat Room projection was "the largest hologram ever used in a park."

Also, more than once I've heard a guest refer to all the coasters (not just the Matterhorn) as "sleds." Is that a regional thing?

They might be from an area that has these style coasters which calls the cars sleds:

my favorite will always be when I was standing in line for HM last summer and two guests in front of me were discussing SWL coming to Orlando and saying how much of an abomination it was, followed by one of them saying with..."Thank goodness they're not doing that here."

Haha yeah, the urge to correct them was strong...but I resisted.

You should have...

"You know that area right over there, well you see this little thing called Star Wars is going in over there...."

"You know that area right over there, well you see this little thing called Star Wars is going in over there...."

Or mess with them and say, "You know that area right over there, well you see this little thing called Avatar land is going in over there...."

Me: Radiator Springs Racers is way better than Test Track.

My friend: Why? Test Track is faster.

Overheard this one last month

"If I got an AP I'd spend all my time in dca and only come to Disneyland after DCA closes at night"

Another good one from a couple years ago

In Tomorrowland

Sees the one did in a small group who's decked out in Disney clothing, walking slighly ahead from the rest of the group. Points to the Moonliner in Tomorrowland and says loudly to his group "See that there, that's been there since opening day. You can see it in pictures"

I facepalmed so hard. I get wanting to "show off" to your group by spouting off your vast history of Buzzfeed Disneyland trivia, but at least make sure the information is correct.

It's the same logic I've heard when people compare DCA to Disneyland- they say DCA has more intense rides so it's better. I don't understand it, if you're only focused on thrill rides go to Six Flags.

I did hear someone who convinced a different online Disneyland group that Rocket Rods was the same ride system as RSR. Absurd. These people actually believed it too- and no amount of photos showing how different the track and propulsion system is convinced them otherwise.

Hey its true because I saw it on the interwebs.

That was me you overheard.

I think we need a thread about the dumbest things forum members have said.

"I can't wait for Pixar Pier!"

Lol, i actually heard that this monday as I walked near the cove bar. The line was huge and i stopped to look at one of the concept art.
