Hehe, my son loved getting to take his picture with Minnie and Mulan at Goofy's Kitchen- both are really cute! :)
I got a great big bear hug from Baloo! :D:

Not related but character related LOL
Disney Dining CM: I must inform you that if you eat lunch at the Liberty Tree Tavern, there will be no characters present.
Me: Are you kidding? Lady, you have no idea.
Dining CM: Darn, I wish you were going to be there on my day off. I would come to the restaurant just to see your family.
LOL
In my household, we ARE the characters!
And you know, I bet the Sparrows get hassled a LOT...and the Jasmines. . .
We had a teenaged boy with Downs that used to frequent our Disney store when I was a CM. I worked as a Greeter most of the time, and his father would always apologize profusely when his son would run up to me and give me a big hug every time they came in or were even just in the mall walking. I never minded, though. He was so sweet, I always hugged him right back.
I often used to wonder if that was how the park characters felt, all that adoration. He just loved me because I worked there- to him I was a little bit of the magic and that was magic for me.

It sounds like some of the previous "SG people" mentioned have, for whatever reason, taken on the creepieness. IT seems that one of them is simply "acting" and not really impaired in any way. Those are the ones that I would be wary of.
The drunk grabbing the princesses should be booted!
(OR, you could put the prince next to her, with a REAL sword or pike!)
That might make them pay attention to decorum, Especially if you put a little red paint on the blades!

I'd go for a mace. The puncture wounds would be very decorative and, as a bonus, might get infected.

Good POINT (hehehe) course, a lot of CM Prince's might not know how to properly use one! (I guess a training session would be in order!)

Coming from someone in the studios, Linda Skywalker still comes in at least once a week, for awhile she was stalking Ron Stoppable. Although now she comes in with lots of HSM stuff on and is now Linda Efron.

She must be an AP holder or something. It sounds like she is "harmless" but then again, sometimes a "trigger" event.....
SG all the way!

I love families who know how to have fun and enjoy each other.

Yes, that is how it feels. Not that you are getting the attention, but that the other person is getting so much joy out of it.

I don't know but the whole Snow White meets the drunken groper (I'm assuming this would be his greatest thrill) thing is really repulsive. My daughter wants to do a college program there and if some loser was slobbering all over her I'd be pretty upset. I'm thinking of the old Tigger situation a couple of summers ago. I was on Tigger's side, it was fairly obvious to me that the kid did something to Tigger. Can Snow White defend herself or can the jerk be dragged off?

It would be cool to see the princesses kick some ass! :p:
Pricess Fiona did in Shrek and the other ones did in Shrek 3 if I remember right! :D:
