A Case of Mistaken Identity?

[Freak]

So, I was at my cart tonight, along the exit path for World of Color, granted we also have guests that try to enter the area to get to their respective holding areas (yellow and red are on the other side of where I was). I had an older lady, very determined to get some information. She was walking around and saw my cart and promptly walked up and asked me her question, straight faced and all:

"Sir, how do I get to Grizzly Adams?"

I almost...almost...alllmost started laughing. But I kept my cool thank goodness. I didn't correct her, and told her how to get to Grizzly River Run.

Backstage, we had a damn good laugh at this. It was genuinely funny.

:D: That's pretty funny!

You could have asked her whether she wanted to ride Grizzly River Run or see either John Adams or John Quincy Adams at the Hall of Presidents... of course, given that she was on the wrong coast for that, I'm sure you did the right thing! :)

I would say he is in the wilderness with his bear Ben.

I dunno, worst I ever had it was to choke back a laugh/choke when the young African American children who asked me where the "spook house" was.

Grizzly Adams had the runs, but he is ok now.

Recently, a Guest came up to me and asked me where the stardust ride was. I thought I heard wrong and asked her to repeat her question and she distinctly tells me stardust. O_o

I immediately thought of the fireworks, but then I took a stab in the dark and asked if she was talking about Star Tours. She says yes and I directed her to the ride. Never heard that before.

Hmmmmm, these stories,which seem to involve women inserting the wrong-but-related word, make me suspect the evils of peri-menopause
Be sweet, or they'll go all crazy on your @$$! :p:

Wow, your dark-stabbing is amazingly precise.

Last week, I was here at the Orange Main library, and this 30-something couple come up to the librarian. SP=Stupid Patron.

SP: How can I get one of these television sets?
Librarian: They're not television sets, they're computers.
SP: What's a computer?

I'm amazed a riot didn't break out.

I mean, what rock did these people just crawl out from under? No, I didn't hang around to see if they got on the computers or not. I suspect not.

You should whip out your cell phone and go "this is a telephone with no wire" and see how they react to that. :D:
