My fav is the time we were standing just outside The EMPORIUM. It wasn't busy in the park. Not jamed packed like closing time in middle of summer.
Anyways. Just a few feet down from us was this younger guy and girl. They were stanind close to the wall of the store talking, just enjoying the day. The man was facing toward the castle and the woman facing toward us. I saw this lady with her stroler come up. she hade the WHOLE sidewalk, street, park, to go around thease 2 people, but she come right up and hit the girl from behind. Without thinking twice, the girl lifted her leg and kicked back hitting the stroler and shoving the woman backwards about 4 feet, causing her to run herself over.
The couple then just walked ascross the street. I walked over to them and told them that was the best thing I had see all day. We talked a bit and the girl said that was the 5th time she had been hit with a stroler that day and she told her BF that if it happened again, she was going to kick the stroller. I just laughed.
The woman was yelling across the street but never came across.
Well He Shouldn't have been standing there.

Re: Well He Shouldn't have been standing there.
Kinda like standing in line at a grocery store check out counter and having the moron behind you nail your ankles with their cart. I give them a free one and if it happens a second time, push backwards just enough to force the cart into their stomach. They usually maintain a two foot buffer after that.head mouse wrote:...but she come right up and hit the girl from behind.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Re: Well He Shouldn't have been standing there.
It is 18 for a rental ECV. There is no age restriction on a private ECV. I have had elementary students with them or PWC. Of course they have been taught how to use it.Taryn wrote:Yesterday, I was pan and brooming at Epcot, and saw a kid no more than 8 years old driving an ECV! I of course ran up to his parents and informed them that you have to be over 18 to drive one, which shocked them. Bah, some people are batty. If you're not old enough to drive a car down a deserted road, then you're certainly not old enough to drive an ECV through throngs of tourists.
The age restriction is 18 right? Or is it 16?? It's hard to keep everything straight!

It was probably the same gal at the begining of this thread. Just changed her motius operendi.head mouse wrote:The couple then just walked ascross the street.

ps I would have LOVED to see that girl kick the stroller,hopfully there was no kid in it though.
