Pluto Chases Kid at Disneyland

Post by AwallaceUNC »

A video hit the news today, showing Pluto chasing a child in Disneyland. It looks like a mother then reprimands Pluto the chase. Supposedly, the video was taken last year but I guess it's just now surfacing. According the Fox News, the family isn't threatening to take any kind of legal action:

It looks bizarre but ultimately harmless to me.

This has only just hit the news? I first heard about this months ago and the video has been on Youtube since July:

I think it's safe to say the kid wasn't frightened, because when the woman stops him, the kid who was being chased walks back up to Pluto.

The kid probably pulled on the dog's tail. Plutos hate when kids do that.

Then again, it may have been a playfully aggressive chase that the mother misunderstood.

Or a staged chase done by the mother, her son, and Pluto (who may be her teenage son in costume working for the summer or something) so that people could put it on youtube. :roll:

Really? That's odd. Fox News was reporting it as new today and I did a Google News search and found that many other sources were as well. Maybe it's a slow news day (Ahmadinejad's visit can only carry reporters so far, I suppose).

Poor Plutie's Tail

Looks like it was staged. Looks kinda phoney. The mom barely nudged him, and down Pluto went. And then "Pluto's" stance afterward, pointing accusing fingers at the women to other passersby and he marched away...
