Stupid Guest Tricks

mentu wrote:for me, it was at unload at the Haunted Mansion. I was walking the belt as usual when a teenager got off the ride. He walked towards me, looked down at the ground, looked back up at me and said "it's kinda like an escalator, only sideways."

I literally LOL when I read that :belt: :hysteria:

My mom (bless her heart, she LOVES Disneyland, she's never been to WDW) would be the perfect stupid guest. I love her but she asks some really strange questions. I remember when my brother and I were younger and at a mall. We were on the lower level and needed to get to the second or main level to go to the car. We went into one of the stores that had two floors and there was a cool looking large spiral staircase in there. My mom looks at the staircase and, I shit you not, asks, "Does this go up?" My bro and I looked at each other and you could hear a pin drop before the explosive laughter that came out of us. :hysteria: She has had to put up with us for the rest of her life. :twisted: She still is hearing about it...I know, my bro and I are brats! She really is not stupid, actually she is very bright, she just comes up with these kinds of statements every once in a while, and it IS genetic... :twitch: :( So I guess she got her revenge by passing on her genes to me.... :twisted:

A little less than two years ago my mother (then only 91) was visiting me for a few days. I took her to Epcot one day and among other things, went to The American Adventure.

During the Valley Forge scene she turns to me and quietly asks: "Michael, is that a real horse General Washington is sitting on?" I told her that it was not.

On the way out, and afterwards, I tried to convince her that she had seen only audioanimatronics and no live people. I think at the time she did not really believe me.

What finally convinced her was at the end of the year when I was up in New York for the family holiday party when I gave her an Imagineering Field Guide to Epcot with a bookmark at the American Adventure pages.

It's the smart people who really come up with the reall whoppers. And then, of course, they are the best ones to tease...

Guest question today: "Do you have a Partridge Family ride here?"

I managed to stay composed and respond "No, I'm sorry, we don't", but I'm thinking ... ok, why would anyone even WANT such a ride, and where would you get any idea that we had something like that?

And what sort of ride would it be?

I heard one on Friday as we were at Haunt at Knott's.

The guy in front of us as we were waiting to go in the Doll Factory maze says." I don't want to go in there. I don't like walking through mazes and having weirdos scaring me."

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU HERE FOR THEN!

I don't know, but here's your ride vehicle:

I'll never forget the day a couple people got on my bus, I asked if they were having fun at Disney World, and one of them responded,

Oh, I'm not here to have fun.

Just about slammed on my brakes in surprise.

My family and I stood in front of a father screaming at his kids "I did not come here to have a go on rides , I came here to learn something." Not in the right place buddy.
