Stupid Guest Tricks

Just returned from a fantastic trip to the world - and have to commend the awesome CM's - you guys rock and it was hot, then it was rainy but everyone kept their smiles on! WOW!

Anyhow, overheard in the bathroom near the entrance to Epcot:
Mom - "why did you bring me to this Elcot park?"
Kid - "cause there's rides and stuff and it fun"
Mom - "no its not, its not even Disney"
Kid - "mom, it is Disney, it says so here"
Mom - "no, no, no we were at Disney yesterday! Is there any rides at Elcot? I don't think there's anything to do here."
Kid - "Lets go up in the ball, mama!"
Mom - "Thats not a ride that is the statue of Elcot"

I had to walk out of the bathroom at that point I was in tears holding back the laughter! I bet that family had a fun day at "Elcot"!!

You are a better person than I. I would have laughed and carried on about all the great rides and shows. :D:

It appears that the arm of Spaceship Earth would have been useful.

Let's hope this doesn't give Disney an excuse to rebrand it "Disney's Epcot".

Don't feel bad,we took a friend of my son to Disneyland about 10yrs ago. 3yrs ago we took his sister and mom,and the mom kept refering to it as Walt Disney.After a dozen times telling her otherwise about the name I just gave up.

I needed something funny just now and this is just what the doctor ordered! I will forever be quoting this to DH as he and I always joke about SG's interpretation of Spaceship Earth. Until now, it has mainly been limited to the idea that it is a super-fast roller coaster in the dark. Now it takes on a whole new level of fun!

I will take a photo of SSE with us out front (complete with a wild-eyed look of disbelief) in July and attach a caption that says "I can't believe it!! It's the STATUE OF ELCOT!" and will post it here for you :D:

Haha! After I told my family about the Elcot family, they took a pic of me outside SSE and I'm holding up my hand in the shape of an "L" for Elcot! Once I get all my pics downloaded I will share ;)

I once had a conversation with a SG about the "big ball" at EPCOT. She was certain that it was a hotel...she stayed there on her last visit.

Sounds like she had a good time..

in fact, you COULD say she had a ball!

That reminds me about a joke involving two cannibals and a missionary.
