Eavesdropping at The World

[DisneyJunkie]

I got a good chuckle overhearing someone tell his friend that all of the ferries and boats that go across Bay Lake from MK to the resorts are running on tracks on the lake floor.

I enjoy listening to cast members give out information totally off base, just because of their enthusiasm.

Resort Monorail Announcement: Coming up on the lagoon side is Disney's Wedding Pavilion.
Two Little Boys: Yaaaay!

We once heard a CM at the entrance to Epcot telling a guest that they inflate the "big ball" every morning before the first guests arrive. He said it jokingly, but I'm not sure the guest "got" it. :lol:

We heard the cutest thing on a ME bus going back to the airport once though. The bus was pretty quiet except for a little 4-year old girl who was jibber jabbering a mile a minute with the surrounding guests. Then, as we left the last hotel, she said in just the cutest, most innocent and quiet little voice, "Goodbye - Disneyworld!" We figured she was probably hired by Disney to be cute....

I know very little about you, and we may be polar opposites in many ways, but I now want to hang out with you for a day at WDW. How do you feel about skipping merrily when you first enter a park in order to embarrass your teenage daughter?

you're family tree and mine must merge somewhere...

On the ME into the World one time a lady sitting next to us was on her phone trying make reservations for the upcoming days for her party. It was pretty funny listening to her going through the list of restaurants she wanted to eat at only to be shot down by all of them for being totally booked already. My mother thought it was funny since she books our reservations like 9 months in advance and this lady thought she could make reservations for Thanksgiving week only a day in advance. The lady seemed really nice and I felt bad for her but it was hard not to chuckle

-Overheard a family by Spaceship Earth.-

Daughter: "Momma, Momma! I want to go in there!"

Mother: "What? The Golf Ball? That isn't a ride for little girls."

-I didn't know whether to laugh or sling my slushie to the ground.-

Last January my husband and I were waiting for rope drop at MK and we overhead this woman trying to make dinner reservations for 10 people at Le Cellier for that evening. When she told her husband that it was full he said, "I don't see why a place like this can't accomodate people!"

Another one, last August on the GMR an older couple with a young girl with them were bickering through the entire ride because the wife had bought herself and the young girl a churro before getting in line and the husband was angry that they didn't get him one while he was holding their place. I guess the young girl had gone to the bathroom and they got their treat right after. He kept saying "I paid 5 grand for this trip, the least you could have done was bought me a 3 dollar churro!" Poor guy!

Pulling into the Contemporary on the resort monorail:

Teen: This must be one of the crappier resorts

He was completely 100% serious. I had to call him out on that one! No way I'm gonna stand by and let someone think such ignorant things!

on windy days, I always say "who wants to ask me if we're on a track?"

It happens more than u want to know

I always thought they were for nursing mothers & bad period cramps. Every girls room in my high school had one, so I assumed thats what it was for. Not that I'd want to sit in a public bathroom because of cramps, I'm too afraid of germ. :lol:

I really thought that lounges were for women so if we needed a quick break away we had a special place to go that men couldn't venture to.

By the way I will be seeing age 37 soon so let me know how it is......

Mine was in a Sizzler round the corner from DTD on a day we were having breakfast before visiting the parks. It was fairly quiet and we were sat nearish this woman on her mobile phone with her back to us, apparently unaware of our presence. She was chatting to somebody about her vacation and by the sounds of it was looking after some teenagers on the trip. I almost choked on my breakfast as she said to her friend "I can't go out with him and leave Darlene with her cousin Trey as last time we did that they tried playing hide the sausage"

You'd never hear that kind of talk at Bonanza.

My husband and I were walking down Main St. with the MVMCP crowd exiting the park. Christmas songs are playing, "snow" is falling, etc. There was a family with young kids walking behind us. The man, pushing a stroller, was talking to his presumed wife when suddenly we heard him say, "You shouldn't even go on vacation...or...or even SPEAK...all you do is yell at everyone, and I'm sick of it."

Merry Christmas.

While waiting for Illuminations to start on the bridge at BWI, I listened to an older guy.. Probably in his 50's, explain to the four people with him that the Beach Club was the Caribbean Beach Resort! It was hilarious!

On my last trip back in November 2008, in EPCOT's World Showcase (near the Norway pavillion, I think), a man asked his approx. 10 year old daughter "We've been out here all day, and you're not wearing underwear under your jeans?!" The girl was wearing blue jean shorts with a T-shirt and flip-flops (with thongs between the toes). She told him yes, that she had no underwear under her shorts. Didn't catch the rest of the conversation however, since we had passed by them, but I can imagine it was pretty interesting! :animwink:

My favorite disney bus ride memory: A little boy (probably four years old) was sitting with his teenage sister and family. The bus was completely silent when he turns around to his sister and screams "TTTTIITTTTYYY TWISSSTTERR!!!"

She was mortified.

I'm pretty sure I still haven't stopped laughing at it!

A few years ago we were in AK and Terk had just come out, this man and his son (about 5-6 years old) says sternly to his son : "We are going to get your picture taken with the monkey and you can get his autograph but do NOT kick him like you kicked Donald Duck! Do you understand?"

 

[WEDway1975]

While in line for SSE I overheard this teenager asking her grandmother this

Teen:"Are you SURE Epcot is in there??
Grandmother:"Yes! The cast member said so!!!!
Teen"But it look's so SMALL?!?!?!?!
:lookaroun :ROFLOL:

I got a good chuckle overhearing someone tell his friend that all of the ferries and boats that go across Bay Lake from MK to the resorts are running on tracks on the lake floor.

I once made that comment as a CM walked by just to see the reaction. She stopped in her tracks and informed me that they were. My wife gave me that, "Why do you do that look". Me I laughed.
