Hi everyone. This is my first post on here. I've been reading the site for ages and thought it was about time I joined in the fun.
We were visiting the Studios last November and I went along to the Cars meet & greet. We'd been there a couple of days earlier and seen L McQueen, but our 7 year old son Ben was disappointed that Mater wasn't there that day. I went ahead of my hubby and son and asked a CM if Mater was there today as my son was a fan. She said she he'd been out earlier and she was pretty sure he'd be there again. I promptly went to get my hubby and son and 10 minutes later we were at the back of a line of 20 or so people. The CM I had been speaking to earlier came over and started chatting to us. She asked my son if he liked the Cars characters and he told her that Mater was his favourite. He then proceeded to show her his Mater impersonation (at the time he had 2 big front teeth with a gap in the middle which he draped over his bottom lip. This blew the CM away and she asked him if he'd like to be a member of the pit crew and lead out Lightening & Mater for the meet and greet. He was taken to the end of the street where he was given a jacket and headset to wear and a checked flag to carry. His face was a picture as he got to do a slow walk up the street, waving the flag, with Lightening and Mater following him. We then got a few minutes for some brilliant photos. My son got his certificate saying the Dream Squad had made him a member of the Junior Pit Crew.
