Tourists are like lemmings, if you can get the leader to move, they will all follow. but if the leader gets spooked, they will all run too. and I heard they can also be taught simple tricks.

Today it was crowded in the park. The CM at BTRR were constantly asking on the loud speaker: To make the lines move faster, please tell the CM how many are in your group.

Also, I kept on hearing remain off the rocks, fences and trees. Also, no running and pushing in line.

Then again, SG are trying to find ice cream on that Turkey Cart. Oh boy! Would you like a stray with your 170 degree mickey sandwich? How about a 170 degree strawberry bar? DUH!!!! :eek:

Yikes! I have to say, it is a little annoying when they decide to just head onto the vehicle without being assigned a row (that can really throw me off, which doesn't take much at ADA/ADB).

How does these SG eat these turkey legs? They are so salty and messy.

We need a fire hose to wash the gross gunk off our hands.

If the turkey cart is out of food, and the cast member desides to move all displays into a warmer, what is in the warmer?

Yup, the SG claims that they see food, really? I see you are dumber than a 5 th grader!! The correct answer is to walk away from the cart and stop bugging the CM for something that they are out of!

Now for BTRR, it broke down today. I heard SG complaining that they could not get on the ride and use their FP. Hello? If the ride is 101 and the ride has no line, yes you are not going to get on. :eek:

Time to sell them the signage and prop display food. A unique and exclusive souvenier of their Disneyland vacation! Managment should aplaud the initiative at exploiting a sellable moment !

Ha!
Ever have people open gates or unlock turnstiles on you, then yell at you for trying to tell them not to do that? Happened a few times to me when I worked at Knott's. What part of "safety" do they not understand?

Safety? That is what other folks have to be concerned about. According to SG logic, they should be free to do whatever they like without giving a second thought, or a first one for that matter. If they get hurt, then someone else is obviously at fault!

I remember going to Knott's a few years ago. This group of teenagers went on the Boomerang. They were in line and decided to jump over the yellow line area. The kids were escourted out of the ride.

Also, I did see a bunch of SG undo their belcrowe beat belts of the rapid ride and get up and switch places. I kept on hearing: Remain seated with your seat belt fastened. The SG were 3 rafts in front of us. Suddenly the ride came to a halt. The SG were greating by park security. Security did toss them out of the park! :twisted:

If I go back to Knott's I plan to people watch the park. :)
