Just saw Steve Carell at the Magic Kingdom

That's awesome, just goes to show you never know who you'll run into down at WDW. My sister met Rev Run and his family a couple years ago in MK and my dad got the snub from Eddie Murphy down there about fifteen years ago. Must've thought he was too good for us common folk after lending his voice to Mulan. Good one Eddie.

Eddie Murphy actually snubbed someone? Don't you have to be famous to do that?

For those that are baseball fans I once saw Cito Gaston (Blue Jays former Manager in the World Series years) at Magic Kingdom in March 2002. He was sitting on a bench right near Thunder Mountain/Splash Mountain. I approached him, he stood up and shook my hand. He's a giant, about 6'6". We talked baseball for a few minutes. He talked about the good old days of when the Blue Jays won and he wasn't too optimistic about the coming season for them. Considering tons of Canadians go to Florida I can't understand how he wasn't recognized by others.

... Don't be bustin' on his work in Mulan. He has one of my favorite quotes from a Disney movie: "Loser?! Who you callin' a loser?! How 'bout I pop one of your antannae off...throw it across the yard? Then who's the loser?!"

I have been "lucky" enough to run into a couple of celebrities doing "normal" things before... Living so close to Nashville, I see country singers all the time when I go shopping and things. It's easy to forget they're just people who happen to have a very high profile job. I think it's awesome that Steve Carrell wasn't mobbed while he was there, but then again I think most people would probably see him with his family and feel like they were being intrusive to go ask for an autograph or something.

Disney must have liked him because they put him in The Haunted Mansion just five years later. That film, of course, proved to the world that he was a nobody with no talent. :wave:

Oh yeah, like its Eddie Murphy's fault that the film sucks. :shrug:

Being from Scranton, I see Michael Scott all the time. Especially at poor Richards Pub, not far from Dunder MIfflin. Okay maybe not. But a few years back during a layover we ran into Richard Simmons. The very next year we ran into Darryl Dawkins in philly on a layover. ( former NBA player known as chocolate thunder). Quite the polar opposites.

So... What did he eat? When I was at Cosmic Ray's a couple of months ago, I got the bacon/guacamole burger. It was room temperature but it still tasted great!

My roommates friend works at WOD and he told me she saw him so I'm going to assume there. I'll ask for more details and get back to you tho!
