Most Random WDW "Celebrity" Spotting Ever...

[melflip8]

So, I am writing my trip report for this weekend as we speak...but I just wanted to share this story...

at approximately 10:45pm last night I am the next in line to get in a Winnie the Pooh Honey Pot and who goes by in the car ahead of me? BLAGOJEVICH.

Oh the irony, and oh the magic. It happend to fast to get a picture (sorry) and he wasnt even with a guest relations person. Anyhew, I just wanted to share. :wave:

Yeah, it was reported on one of the TV stations that he was visiting. He was staying at Saratoga actually. :lol:

The funny thing is...that I noticed the hair first...and then the face. :ROFLOL: So bad, but sooo good.

 

[SeaBreeze]

Haha I was going to say that if anyone doesn't believe you, his hair is so distinct that I'm certain you weren't mistaken. How random!

 

[unkadug]

I doubt that Disney would have offered a guest relations guide to a disgraced public figure and thief.

Even crooks can visit the happiest place on earth!

I didnt know Rod is a WDW fan!

Rod Blagojevich poolside at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa on Thursday.

I remember seeing Gary Sinise at MGM, my dad pointed him out. And I remember seeing Grant Hill zoom by in the fastpass line for Space Mt. I really wish I could randomly run into Beyonce in WDW though, OMG.

Didn't turn on the audio on that video, because I already know the sound it MAKES WHEN IT LIES.

so britney spears and tom cruise get to be completly broken up from the disney society but grant hill doesnt? where do they draw the line b/c grant hill was a huge magic star and im pretty sure shaq would get the treatment (if he could fit on any MK rides that is). Like does every 1 who got invited to ESPN the weekend get guide and a free pass onto the rides?

He was only on the ride because he identifies with the heffalumps and woozles.

I can see it on TV now....

"Former Illinois Gov Rod Blagojevich, You've just been indicted on 19 counts including Racketeering, Wire Fraud, Extortion, Conspiracy, and Lying to Federal Agents....What are you going to do now..............?"

 

[Hrudey3032]

Its the time of your lives......on the people of Illinois wasted dollars.

I hope he goes to jail and soon.

 

[dsnyfreak]

What?!!? I just hope he payed his own way. I hope that Disney did NOT let this guy do ANYTHING there for free!!!!!!!!!!

From what I saw he definitely didnt have any Guest Relations person with him...the CM who was working the ride said she was surprised too, but I guess that would be a bad PR move on Disneys part, although at the end of the day his safety is probably their biggest concern.

Everyone in line with us was shocked to see him there...one guy even yelled out "What the H are you doing here?!" Also, I saw this morning that we has staying at Saratoga Springs. Guess he is trying to enjoy one last magical moment with his family before jail time.

Gary Sinise is the man!!

We just got back from WDW last week and, although it wasn't on the Disney property, I ran into golfer Rocco Mediate at a mall in the True Religion store.

My wife had no clue who he was but i thought it was pretty cool!

No, We the taxpayers of Illinois picked up the bill for this trip I'm sure, from all the money he stole from us. When he gets to prison, maybe he can be roommates with the man replaced, former Illinois Gov. George Ryan, also a member of the Illinois prison system, and they can compare notes.
