Ok if your looking for a flame war here you wont find one with me. I hate fighting.The brazilian tour groups that flood WDW in the spring and summer.
Whats the big deal? If you don't understand how to behave in polite society, I have neither the time nor inclination to explain basic manners.
Part of the problem with the Brazilian tour groups is their behavior. They will chant constantly, on line, in QS restaurants, on COP, take pictures when flash photography is not allowed, etc. They will also wait on line while a bunch are out doing Brazilian stuff, then the rest of the group cuts in front of you to rejoin the group. The list goes on and on.Ok if your looking for a flame war here you wont find one with me. I hate fighting.
I just Don't see why its different from the people who rap while on line or the kids who scream on line or the businessman on his cellphone or the girl singing part of your world as she walks around fantasyland. Its a fun time people get excited, I happen to love cheerleading alot. Its not like we did it in a theater or during a ride we were walking around.
I'm only trying to understand your opinion, you don't need to freak out. It's only a website forum. take a deep breath and exhale.![]()
I had to look up the XD thing. You really might want to pick a fight with someone else. But you're free to pursue it, if you please.It'd help if you told me who these brazilians are first. I'm kinda lost on that.
We chanted 4 times If someone told us to stop we would stop but no one even looked at us. If you didn't like it you could simply walk to a different part of the park, as we only did it one time on line, the rest were just walking around. What's really the big deal? I could understand it if we'd cheered again and again but you seem adverse to hearing any kind of cheering at all like it'd melt your ears or something. XD

Dave is correct. It is rude to cheer in public unless you are doing it at a game. It's rude to scream, cut in line, yell and all the things teen girls think are okay because they're teen girls. You shouldn't make a spectacle of yourself or force everyone around you to listen to anything you say. If your parents didn't teach you this, you've now been told. Twice.
If you're thinking, "But I want to and you can't stop me!"...you're correct. We cannot stop you.
Brazillians? I never said anything about brazilians??
No need to be mean thoughlike I said my squad was mostly well behaved albeit we did cheer just a few times but never more than one cheer at a time. I think we broke into it about 4 times the whole time, and other than that we were just being like any other group of teen girls.
It is much easier to understand posts when punctuation and capital letters are used of course I know you kids find these things superfluous but it does make it harder for we old folk to understand when you use the punctuation it is so much better bear is the word you want I think not bare yes it's rude but as I said we cannot stop you if you petulantly insist on doing it or that it is okay to do have at itOne cheer is too much to bare? I never cut in line, screamed or any of that. Doing a cheer routine for the camera in front of the entrance only seemed like a must. The other two times weren't really organized and basically ended with us all laughing or something. I don't exactly remember everything this was so long ago. To give you an idea the newest thing was mission space and I was still getting over the shock of the new imagination ride.
I'm not picking a fight. I know emotion is lost over the internet, but I wouldn't be yelling or screaming I don't like fighting at all. I just wanted to understand why people felt that way. I'm forced to endure everyones stupid conversations all the time, about the most grotesque stuff I live in new york I just kinda tune it all out as background noise
And there is the problem. Manners. Did we come to WDW to hear each squad break into cheers multiple times? No. Would this be allowed in a classroom? On an airplane? In church? A movie theater? The adults are condoning the behavior so I don't blame the children as much as the adults that lack decorum or manners that pass that trait onto those in their charge. Somewhere along the line the adults never learned there is a time and a place for everything. Cheers and football games have a specific spot just for them in WDW. Be nice if that was taught.
I'm not saying that to be mean, I am saying it more to think foremost about the respect and consideration of others. Maybe next time?

I don't think you see the whole picture Fairy buzz. You say your group only broke out in cheer 4 times? Now picture EVERY group breaking out in cheer just 4 times. I bet that would mean you would hear it everywhere, all day long. It gets old and obnoxious really quickly. And thats assuming every cheer group stopped after only 4 times.
I don't think that at this point after all these years that they'll let me back in at my age.
I just think people are over reacting a little thats all. We were one of the quieter squads at the park that day.
Actually the only reason I was so offended was I assumed this was going to be one of those long high school "I hate cheerleaders because they're evil and *insert derogatory stereotype here*" kind of things.And every squad adult feels the same way. The entitlement to intrude. A taught trait.
I'm intrigued... can you PM me the manager?I heard a Hall of Fame baseball manager rip an older fan (50s) for his lack of manners and his behavior. In short, the fan was rather demanding in asking for an autograph and didnt even say please. The HOF'er went on a hillarious rant. The former player/TV analyst next to me and I broke up laughing.....
So it goes more than today's youth. Manners are lacking
Being someone that was one of the football players that have won pop warner nationals, your team has to be pretty disciplined to make it to these games. Its not just your average set of crazy kids that are there just to ride space mountain. Also a ton of our time was taken up by practicing (good thing that all star sports had a goal post to practice on). We never were at the parks a day before a game which you have two no matter if win or lose. I wouldn't worry about them to much.
You got that right. I know I did a lot of things growing up without realizing how they affected people around me. I just assumed everyone shared my point of view. Now , if I saw my teenage self I'd probably kicks my own .Actually the only reason I was so offended was I assumed this was going to be one of those long high school "I hate cheerleaders because they're evil and *insert derogatory stereotype here*" kind of things.
But its true. for a 13-14 yo girl its really hard to be that aware of whats going on around you. No one tells you to stop how would you know? If I was shushed I'd have stopped. that was ten years ago I definately wouldn't do that kind of thing now.
As a parent and a Pop Warner father I will chime in on this. Children will be children no mater if there are 2 or 50 in a group. My children no matter how well behaved around me I know can become obnoxious little brats to an extent when with friends unsupervised. The problem at Disney with Pop Warner and other groups of kids is of them being mostly unsupervised. That is when we as adults need to step in, the whole it takes a town concept. If my child misbehaves I have no issues with another adult correcting them appropriately for their action(s). And I have no issues doing the same when I am out and about. So if you are enjoying your time at the Mouse House or any place else for that matter, and a group of Pop Warner teams, Brazilians or just a group of kids is misbehaving or being rude/obnoxious, then politely but firmly correct them for their behavior. If their parents did any kind of a job with teaching their little darlings properly then most of the time the issue will be resolved at least temporarily until their short term memory forgets what was discussed only a few minutes ago! If they don't listen then ask if there is one of their chaperons near by or tell a cast member.
I gave my input on a similar thread a few years back and heard from a few, 'I'm on vacation, it's not my job' and to those people I say that thought process is why children behave the way they do! Most children are well behaved but need to be reminded from time to time to do so.
Let the scathing comments commence!
