Celebrities in the Parks

[CBeilby]

Ok, I can add another to the list. Today, while we were on our way out after the Cast preview ride through Toy Story Mania, Purpura and I were on the ramp by Screamin', when all of the sudden, professional wrestler Mick Foley and his family came out of the exit. We acted sort of like stupid guests at first, staring (trying to make sure it was him.) Lara did approach him, but didn't talk to him as a fan, instead complimenting him on how pretty his daughter is, and just generally treating him like another guest (especially by calling him sir rather than using his name.) We could tell that he knew we'd recognized him, and that he appreciated being basically left alone. He's a real nice guy, and honestly seems very approachable.

I heard Mick Foley was also there on Tuesday. Since, he had to do a Smackdown! taping in LA at the Staples Center, he must pass the time somehow!! :D

*nods* Makes sense (although I didn't realize Smackdown was in town this week.) Still, you could tell, especially by the huge grin when Lara called him 'Sir' that he really appreciated being treated like a normal person.

In my short time at Mission: Space, I've seen/met Steven Tyler (a biggie for me, since I'm from Boston! and he's short), Amanda Bynes (my friend tried to make me jealous by texting me that she was in tower and going on the ride. She just so happened to be going into the bay I was working), an ESPN sportscaster, one of the guys from Extreme Makeover Home Edition, a boxer, and my friends and I debated over whether or not we saw Greg Brady. I just missed seeing Gary Sinese (capcom!), and Patrick Dempsey by minutes.

Today when I was loitering (AKA visiting my CM friend) the photo shop at Space Mountain, that guy (Jorge Garcia) from Lost bought a souvenir picture. When my friend finished the sale, she turned to me and mouthed "OH EM GEE. THAT WAS HIM!!!"

Not to sound like an insensitive jerk, but I am surprised Warwick Davis was tall enough to ride Coaster

Red Team Sucks!

Leader of the MRG

[Theme Park Where]

You haven't seen Peter Mayhew (Chewie) yet? On the weekends he was there, he used to actually hang out in our breakroom at coaster so he could ride over and over again. He's a bit, um, tall for the ride, but he could just squeeze into the front row!

I ran into Mick Foley once at Sea-Tac Airport. Didn't say anything to him, but I asked the security guy who checked his ID and sure enough he told me it was Foley. Found out after the fact that Smackdown had taped in Tacoma earlier that day.

I saw Andre the Giant at O'Hare waiting for the same plane I was on. Instead of saying something about kicking Hulk Hogan's ass I told him I enjoyed him in the Princess Bride. That got a smile.

He was preboarded with his walking around guy. When I got on he was seated on the aisle in first class. he was so big he blocked part of the aisle.

I'm not surprised, given his size. In fact, when I first read your second sentence here, I thought you meant he was actually seated ON the aisle! (He was the Brute Squad, after all!)
