I, too, have been stuck on Small World and I honestly thought I would hear that song in my head for the rest of my life! :eek:
The best was getting stuck on Space Mountain and they turned on the lights. It was interesting to see what it really looks like in there :)

I have got stuck on Test Track a couple weeks ago. First time that I have gotten stuck on that ride. Right before the heat room and that was cool seeing the lights on.

I have never been on Everest and it had an E-stop. But I have been on the tain in the loading station twice. Here is a cool fact, James aka the Yetimen(because for some reason the CMs there can not call him that anymore) has never been on the ride when it had an E-stop. Cool fact don't you think.

A guranteed ride to get stuck on for me is Test Track. At least once during my visit it will break down while I am waiting in line or on the ride. If there is an extra magic hour at Epcot, Test Track is never working!!! My first time ever on Test Track on the part outside we came to a screaching stop and the tires let out a terrible smell. I thought that it was part of the ride until men came walking out on the track and had to push us to the end of the ride.

We got stuck on and evacuated off the TTA twice in one weekend, in just about the same spot. We had to walk down the track a bit, into the tunnel with the blue/red/green line transfer station with the aliens, thru a door, down some stairs, and came out into the Alien Encounter exit hallway. Also got some free fastpasses (used on Splash Mountain and Peter Pan). Didn't see much of anything except a desk and a lot of boxes. Some stupid people kept stepping on the tracks. That's how the ride gets broken, idiots!

Test Track malfunctioned once while we were on it. It went super slow thru the high speed loop. It is VERY steep on the front of the building. We came around again and got to ride again right away. Another time the car was malfunctioning in some way and when we got back to the station I told the CM, who did seem to care, but didn't offer us any fastpasses. :(

I missed out on a UoE evacuation once by only a little bit. I was pretty upset about that.
 
Umm lets see...

Spaceship Earth Countless Times...no evacs were needed lol

Test Track way too many times....haha it was hillarious gassing it on the break test when there was a car stopped ahead of us (there was a zone stop and cars were backed up) ...hehe we stopped in an instant (talk about wiplash) before we could hit the car infront of us.

Carousel of progress...aarg watching the same scene like two or three times in a row gets annoying-Still love the ride

TTA stopped like three times in a row with us on it because of people standing up...which happend like a million times like on the 27th during the christmas rush

Buzz twice on that same night...both times they had a CM running accross the track to do somethin

Tower of terror right after we were backing out of the drop shaft...we were backed up enough so we could see the car infront of us. Walked off and got re-rides :D



Oh yeah...my fav of em all. We got stuck on Everest new years eve, first thing in the morning on the second track switch (after the backwards section through the mountain). Not only were we in the back row (my fav seat), but when we were being walked off, the awesome CM who was in charge of escorting the back of the train gave us a kind of a tour. Man the inside of that mountain is amazing!

I heard about that from my friend. She had to go to the top switch track and Evac that train. And when they had to do the start up the ride again she had to go to that switch station and start it up there. She told me on her way back down she was all the way down and she hears over the radio that they E-stoped it again and that she had to go all the way up again and do it again. She told me all about it when I got there later in the day.

Now I remember another time when I have been on Buzz and the whole ride shut down. Lost all of my points when that happen but I was in the area where I know where to get a lot of points.

Ok I'm going off on a tangent here, but....

Did anybody else notice the OP's name?

:confused:

This could be because Art Vandelay is a character from Seinfeld and it's possible that we have two Seinfeld fans here - one of whom probably had no idea that a very similar name had been used prior to her joining. :) Or they are both fans of the musician Art Vandelay.

It was quite interesting to google "Art Vandelay" and find out how many references there are. :)

Evacuated from Epcot Monorail in I think it was 1985 when a tire blew out and and was on fire . Had to get on the top of the monrail. RCFD used a E-0ne platform to get us off of the top of the Car :)
