CM scaring the guests! ;)

I dunno if this fits here or not; however, I'm gonna share it anyhow. I've worked in Indy (in DL) once a week for the past two weeks. When I come upon the place where the "spikes" fall when you push on the pole I always wait for a group of girls. Once I see my victims I look right into the girls' eyes and say "Watch out for falling spikes." Then, I push on the pole and the fun begins!

It's a real whoot to watch them get scared. :-p Tell me, am I evil or is it just all in good fun?

PS, in DL we have one custodial person who cleans Indy. ie: dumps the trash, sweeps the queue, and cleans up any code somethings (v's, u's, h's-- well, you get the idea!)

During Grad Nites at Pirates we had 3 utility positions inside the attraction, and a lot of the CMs would scare those annoying teenagers out of their wits. Good times.

I love triggering the pole at Indy when I'm a guest, someone always screams. But also working Small World, you can scare people all the time without even intending to. When we have to pull boats there's this ledge we wait on until an empty boat comes up. There's a wall between you and the direction the boats come, so if you stand against the wall and just peek around the corner until you see an empty boat you can scare the guests in the full one in front of you by moving to the track switch when they get by you. It's great, I've scared like football player sized grown men before. :twisted:

Sometimes it's just too easy to scare guests. One of my favorites is on the WDW Railroad at Frontierland. Instead of the normal safety spiel, I just recite, "Hold onto yer hats 'n' glasses, 'cause this here is the wildest ride in the Wilderness!"

But only when Engineer "Rocket" Ron is driving.

Whenever I'm a Gangster or a Bandit I'm extremely loud. Usually I'm able to get at least one or two groups of guests to scream. Espically when I bust out of the bank in bandit, or take the last shot at the red light in gangster.

I love working Indy! I pretend to sweep near the pole and when a group of girly girls come by I look at them in their eyes and say "Watch out for falling spikes."

It's too funny! Good times. =^^=

one of these days i'm going to set that up, grab a few other cms when we're on break or something and stare at that pole, like something is wrong, then reach out to trigger it, and have us all bolt into the rotunda, screaming like little girls, i might have to grab jungle skippers tho, we wear the same costume, and they always seem to have the free time.

And people ask me why I wish I was a Jungle Skipper at DL, they seem to have SO much fun over there. If I was there I'd be one of the first ones to join you in that lil stunt.
