Guestions: You've asked them or you've been asked...

Post by Escapay »

Have you ever been to the parks and asked a REALLY STUPID question that answers itself once you ask it? Have you worked in the parks and been asked these really stupid questions? Post all the fun silly and idiotic "Guestions" you've ever asked or been asked.

The best one I've gotten, and it was in Fidget's siggy for awhile is this:

WHERE CAN I GET A HAMSICLE?

And of course, just to get them out of the way...

What time does the 3 o'clock parade start?

Where's the f***ing rides?!?

Is that really Mickey Mouse? Or is there a person in there?

And some stranger ones I've gotten:

My son wants to watch the parade, so can he pee in the corner over there or do I have to take him to a bathroom?

Do hotel guests get a discount?

Can I pay with my ticket?

I can't imagine what type of parent would say that...

Believe me, parents will do anything to keep from losing their space during a parade. I have been pushed and pulled and yanked and kicked before because people try and watch the parade.

How come when I went to Splash Mountain, I got wet?

Why didn't they put a warning notice before Mission Space?

LOL, I guess Luke has it for this board too that you can be a guest to post. It makes it useful for the occasional lurker who decides to come on, ask a question, and be done with us, lol.

Rumor has it that costumed characters get asked by guests what their gender is. :o

Here's one:

Guest: "Hey, Peter! Come here! Peter, can you come over here?"

*Peter says some in-character line about having to get to an adventure*
*Guest grabs Peter by arm and pulls him over to him forcefully"

Guest: "I SAID COME HERE"

Peter, slightly raising his voice: "SIR, I said just a moment. Please let me go."*Cast Member comes running over to make the man let Peter go... Peter flies away*

Yeah...that was the idea...rrrrright. It wasn't just that he forgot to configure it so that only registered users can post. But now he's reconsidered so Guestions need to be made post-registration! :)

WHERE CAN I GET A HAMSICLE?
Seriously Escapy-I'll never get over that, it's way too funny.


Hear are a few I used to get at work too (some submitted verbally to me by Shane too) & yes people did used to ask this alot:

"Where's Twister?"

"Where can I meet Spongebob?"

"What time are the fireworks?" (meaning Fantasmic!)

"How do I get to Disneyland/Disney World from here?"

"Is there a bus to Universal from the Trans & Ticket Center?"

"Where can I board the BLUE LINE?" (TTA in Tomorrowland)

"Where is Walt buried/frozen under/in the castle?"

"Where can I personally talk to Micheal Eisner?"

"What is P.I?"

"Does it go upside down?"-Guest (About Alien Encounter)
"No. You sit in a seat but, it doesn't move."-Shane
"Does it spin?"-Guest
"No, I just said it doesn't move"-Shane

" I heard it doesn't rain in Disney World...is that right?"

Fidget1234 is the expert on this! LOL

I thought of a couple more:

Is there some way I can use the monorail to get from Magic Kingdom to Animal Kingdom?

I want to get Shrek's autograph!

Because the WDW monorail only has 3 lines:

Contemporary to TTC to Polynesian to Grand Floridian to MK
MK to TTC
TTC to Epcot

OMG, I love those!

Guest: Will the parade come by here?
Me: Yes, that is why they have set up the ropes.
Guest: What are the ropes for?
Me: To keep guests from joining the parade.
Guests: We're allowed to join the parade?
Me: No, that's why the ropes are there.

^ Well, the Remember the Magic parade was sort of an exception to that rule, but it sounds like a lot of these are just from people that don't listen, or do listen, but don't like what they hear. :roll:

[quote="Timon/Pumba fan"]Fidget1234 is the expert on this! LOL quote]

After being there for more then 2 years...believe me between my husband & I we've heard them all plus more....haha.. Escapays got some good ones too tho including the ropes/parade... watch out for those giant snow globes they're hard to manuver!

Speaking of the SNow globe parade:
My mom was out on the stairs by Tonys (Where AAA desk used to be on Main Street) & some guy was chatting it up w/ her & when he saw Mickey in the globe- it didnt register to him that it was a giant snowglobe & he said to her: "wow, looks like Disney is really taking security w/ the characters more serious if they need to put them behind glass."
That's kinda hard to top.

I couldn't stop laughing after reading that. Really, people only realize the stupid things they say (me included) right after they say 'em and then they get all the wierd looks.

From the depths of doom called college, Kram Nebuer returns because he's procrastinating!!!!!

I remember this one that Jane McCoy told me because it was too baffling to believe...
(At the Tomorrowland Indy Speedway)
Jane: No bumping, go...
Guest: How do I make it go?
Jane: (trying to act like this question is perfectly normal to ask) Just push your foot on the pedal and go.
Guest: How do I push the pedal?
oooooookkkkkkk...lol.

I posted this one before, but I'll repost it the appropriate thread.
This is from Mousetales and it never fails to crack me up!
"I already have a Chip, where can I find a Munk?"

Here's another:
"How do I get to Carrots of the Pyrobbean?"

(Guest outside the Golden Horseshoe Revue): What's the Golden Whorehouse?

Remembering some more from MouseTales...

Guest: Where's "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World of Children?" (It's a Small World)

Guest: Is there a guarantee that I'll come out EXACTLY the same size? (Adventure Thru Inner Space)

Guest: Where's Magic Mountain?
(Cast Member then goes on to give directions to the non-Disney park, but it turns out the Guest wanted to find the Matterhorn)

Guest: If I jumped into the water, would you catch me?
Cast Member (not thinking she would): If you can swim, no.
(Guest then jumps in water)

Guest (drinking water at Rivers of America) : Is it okay to drink the water?

You forgot the rest of it:

Guest (drinking water at Rivers of America) : Is it okay to drink the water?
Cast Member: No, fish pee and make love in that water.
(Guest has a protein spill)

:P eww
