Funny Things Said In WDW!

[Belle1004]

While my sister and I were walking through Frontierland, two women came up to us and asked if we knew where the Magic Kingdom was. We assumed they meant the castle and pointed them in the correct direction (even though it is visible throughout most of the park)

On the jungle cruise before we're get to the unload dock:

"...and folks don't miss the stroller races at 9:00 tonight (closing time)!"

One night we were standing in line to get into the ESPN club and there was a group of teenagers behind us. They were chatting about the surroundings and all of a sudden I hear one of them loudly ask another, "So, like, does Disney own the whole lake?"

I'd have to say the best one I've ever heard as a Guest was on the train, we had gotten on at the Main Street station and were waiting for more to board at the Frontierland station, and this family that had gotten on was looking at their map as many Guests do, and they're talking about which lands they've visited and everything, and I hear dad say, "Well we've seen all these places and all, but where's Main Street?" I tried SO hard not to bust out laughing, I was hiding behind my park map the rest of the time.

And then the second best came one day while I was working on the Tomorrowland bridge (photopass) a guest came up to me asking where the rides are, mind you this was within my first week or so so I hadn't really thought up anything clever to reply with like so many CM's learn after so many 'where's the castle, when's the 3pm parade, where's the beer?' but still, it was pretty interesting.

Great one while standing and greeting at the entrance of TST, "Where do we see the princesses? / Where's Mickey?" when they had to pass the wait time signs to get to the door that you can clearly see the signs that say what characters can be found.

While on Kilimanjaro Safari with several of my teenage students as we approached an OBVIOUSLY male elephant.....

Little kid in front of us: Mommy why does that elephant have five legs?

CM: (trying to cover up the awkward silence): Mother elephants have a gestation time of almost 2 years.

One of my comedian students (very loudly): How long is it? (pauses for shock effect) I meant the pregnancy!

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry hysterically!

When we went in 2005 my son was 2 years old and having difficulty with some words. Standing at the Caribbean Beach check-in desk he looked over at me while my wife was holding him and said "Dad, what time are we going to the bi*ch?" I nearly choked. And my wife turned as red as her shirt. Bless the CM's heart, she just looked at him and said "The beach is open all day little guy."

Leaving TTC at the end of a night. An English man was sitting on a bench while on the phone saying repeatedly "I'm not talking to the fricken dog. Take the dog off the phone, I'm not talking to the fricken dog.".

Sorry for a late post, but I just remembered hearing this in 2010.

We were walking down Sunset Boulevard at DHS and I heard two girls talking behind us.

Girl 1: Wow, is that a hotel inside of the park?! (referring to TOT)

Girl 2: No.. I think it's outside of the park..

I'm not even joking, someone actually said that.

Oh God, I have a zillion of these from working there.

"Where's the Obama Restaurant?" - Guest looking for the Boma Restaurant at Animal Kingdom Lodge (Also called, Bamo, Blamo, Bomo and a variety of other things)

"Do you work here?" (All I really wanted to say was no, I wear this ridiculous outfit for fun.)

"Where's the door?" - Asked while standing at the front desk of AKL-Kidani (where the door is a mear 5 steps away from the desk)

"Will the monorail take me to Harry Potter World?"

"My reservation is at Liberty Tree in 15 minutes. Will I make it?" (Asked at the front desk of DAKL)

"What time is the 3 o'clock parade?"

I'll leave you with those...but I have lots more. :ROFLOL::ROFLOL::ROFLOL:

My parents have me as a little kid on video complaining. It was during the original Electric Light Parade. I was on my dad's shoulders and I was screaming for the people in the parade to throw stuff to me. We are from New Orleans. To a New Orleanian child, parades means catching beads and stuffed animals. So my little brain could not fathom why everyone was just waving.

The video is me screaming for the riders to throw me something while my mom tells my dad to explain to me "that they dont do that here" and him just laughing and letting me continue because he thought it was funny. Shortly, the video cuts off. Only to start back up on the monorail and its little me complaining about how "That was the worst parade ever! They didnt throw NOTHING!"

Lesson of this video... you can take the kid outta New Orleans, but you can't take the New Orleans outta the kid!

To this day, my husband (whose heard the story a million times) will ask me on every trip before the parades "Ya think we'll catch anything?"

My mother complained about the same thing on our recent trip. She knew they didn't throw things, but felt the need to complain at every parade how it would be so much better if they did.
I'm sure she was a source of endless amusement for anyone around us over those 11 days. She is the queen of dumb comments, lol.

Lots and Lots and Lots of Patience. =)

Another good one I just remember from a fellow CM who used to fork in MK Entrance Ops.

*standing at the MK turnstiles*
Guest: Excuse me, how do I get back to Disney World?
CM: Sir, you're in Disney World. Where exactly would you like to go?
Guest: No, I want to go to the other Disney World.
CM: Sir, I don't understand exactly where you want to go. You're currently in the Magic Kingdom. Would you like to go to Epcot? Hollywood Studios? Animal Kingdom?
Guest: No, I just want to get my car!
CM: Oh, you want to get back to the MK parking lot. Ok. You can either take the monorail or the boat directly in front of you.
Guest: Ok, thanks. *mumbles while walking away* stupid employees

Never a boring day as a CM.

The bolded reminds me of what happened during our trip in October. We were entering the AK, and there was an older couple behind us wearing full-on safari gear - shirt, shorts, hat, and boots. I heard her whisper excitedly to her husband after going through security, "The security guy asked me if we worked here!"

On a recent trip, while riding Small World, a father was telling his girls every single country we were in. One was the winter nations but my favorite was the country of Polynesia... :shrug:
