We always call SSE the Golf Ball. We also shorten most attraction names into one name, i.e., POTC is just Pirates.
We always call buzz lightyear buzz lightbeer:lookaroun

My cousin's four year old said his favorite ride was the "stick ride" AKA Splash Mountain!

Finally started reading this thread and lost it when I read this, because we were joking about the same thing. I'll probably start snickering again in June when we're on it. :lol::lol:

Maybe even better than having an alternative name for a ride, my GF, when she was younger, would constantly ask her parents for "Gluey" before being tucked into bed. They would parade every single stuffed animal by her hoping to find "Gluey" and make her happy, but they were never able to and it would lead to them having to sit with her until she fell asleep. A year or two later, after this began and had begun to calm down as she grew older, they made a trip to WDW and at some point while walking through Fantasyland she screamed "Gluey" and sprinted off across the way, latching herself onto the "Dopey" castmember with a massive smile on her face. She had finally found "Gluey". No one knows where the name came from, but the picture of her with the massive grin on her face latched onto "Gluey"/"Dopey" still hangs in her parents living room.
My brother and I had many names for the attractions when we were young, most notably "The Troll Ride" for Maelstrom, "The Singing Vegetables" for Kitchen Kabaret, and "The Dinosaur Ride" for The Universe of Energy

My mom called Big Thunder Mountain the Runaway Mine Train. I was sure that used to be its name, but I guess it was her own invention. We went back together just this week for the first time in over 15 years, and that was still how she remembered it. I'll have to post some pictures on the POTD thread. We had a lot of fun.

Well our girls (and it started with my oldest) call TOmorrowland Transit Authority the "relaxing ride" , COP is refered to as "The great Big beautiful Tommorow Ride", Spaceship Earth is "The Epcot Ball", Trying to think of others, but these are just the ones that come to mind .....
