I don't know if I'd call myself a pro compared to others here ,but it was definitely kinda neat when I realised I finally knew more about WDW than the person who planned my first adult trip.

I know I am a Disney Pro When:
1: Michael at the Barbershop knows how I wanted my haircut
2: I'm at work, my friend can't find a restroom, he calls me, I ask him to tell me where he is, and I tell him
where to go to find one.

(about a week after the monorail changes that effected EMH...)

Me to CM @ WL: "Hi! I heard that the Monorail wont be running anymore after EMH, do you know when that goes into effect?"
CM: Uh... thats not true.
Me: Are you sure? I read it online from a pretty reliable source.
CM: Uh, yeah...thats not true. I would know about it, and its not true (laughs with snotty facial expression)
Me: Alrighty.

oh and, my first time playing Kinect Disneyland Adventures:

My Husband: How do you know where everything is already!?
Me: Muahahahahaha.

When I’m spending the day in Gettysburg, PA and my sister is at WDW playing mini golf at Fantasia Fairways she calls to ask me who holds the course record because the CM didn’t know. After my sister shared the info with the CM she said “Oh yea that’s right.” Just in case you are wondering - Bubba Watson 41

I enjoy listening to people when they are in line. My favorite is when men take it upon themselves to play tour guide and educate their traveling companions on the parks. I've heard all sorts of entertaining histories of alternate universe versions of the Disney parks...you know, the places these people talk about that were never built or don't exist in our world. The strangest aspect of this is the mythical cryo tomb of Walt Disney that I have often heard amateur "tour guides" describe to their traveling companions. Sometimes it's under Cinderella's Castle (which they point to in MK and often identify as Sleeping Beauty's Castle) and I even once heard it being in a tower of the castle...other times it's under Tomorrowland (I guess because cryogenics is futuristic).

Sometimes I hear people say that Disney's tomb is under "that big round ball in EPCOT". Someone up thread said that he heard people talking about a roller coaster being in Spaceship Earth at EPCOT and I have heard this too -- though I quickly realized the offenders were mixing up Space Mountain with Spaceship Earth.

My friend called me from EPCOT and I had to talk her through finding The Land!!

When I did work, my patients would call me at work or home to get advice on planning their vacation to Disney, and my husbands co-workers also.

Ha! So true, I really look at them for the pics now anyway!
But I think you've achieved the Disney Pro title when you've converted a Disney hater into a Disney lover...not an easy thing to do but I've done it!

I have this challenge coming up in February. I will go "pro" only if I convert my buddy that he would rather have a mouth fll of root canals than step foot in a Disney park. Don't worry. I will succeed.

Haha -- I had my Disney pro moment yesterday.

My DH has an RSS feed from the Disney blogs (I think; some Disney site). He mentions to me last night that Fantasy Faire is closing this month, and how this will affect our trip (to WDW) in January. I repeatedly asked him "Fantasy Faire? Fantasy Faire in Disneyland?" He gets very annoyed with me and says "NO!! Our Disney -- Disney World." :rolleyes:

After dinner, he double-checked his RSS feed and says "I hate that you are so 'in the know' now." Having no idea what he is talking about, I ask. And he sheepishly replies "Yeah you were right. Fantasy Faire is in Disneyland."

BOOYAH. hahhaaa

Haha I read a PP who mentioned the Disneyland Adventure game and thought "Oh yea. Totally" I drove my mom nuts when we played it the first time. She kept loading the map and without even looking at the screen I would tell her "no, go up and to the right" or ""No, youre thinking MK. This is Disneyland. IASM is over HERE in this park. You should know this"

And like Witchy Chick, my poor husband desperately tries to tell me new WDW news and not once has he and me not go "oh yea, I saw that already" Poor guy :)
