Most embarrassing WDW experience About This Page:

[DreaminDizney1002]

I remember reading this in your TR and thinking it was funny because we had a similar experience on the Astro Orbiter! The CM's must get a kick out of squishing two adults per rocket ship.....In fact, prior to us getting stuck the CM indicated that there was plenty of room for two adults to ride together! I was so embarrassed trying to get us both unstuck after the ride was over that I jetted to the elevator after exiting and realized that my husband was not on the elevator going down with me! After a brief moment of panic, we finally reunited at the bottom of the elevators. Let's just say that since then, we haven't taken a spin around the planets for fear of the strong gravitational pull taking us hostage again!

OH my goodness!! I think I just woke up the kids from laughing!! They asked me what I was doing!! I could honestly see something like that happening to me!! I could feel your embarassment!! Mickey does have a way of making you feel better!! As for Snow White and her evil bird, I will keep my eyes to the sky!!

We were eating at the Kona Cafe after a very hot tiring morning in MK. I ordered some sort of chicken sandwich. The bun it was on was very thick and the sauce on the bun made it almost impossible to pick up and eat. The entree also included french fries with ketchup in one of those small white containers sitting on my plate. I didn't realize what a BIG mistake I made by not taking the container of ketchup off my plate. Frustrated with the sandwich, I started cutting it with my fork and knife. When I did, my hand slipped and hit the container of ketchup. It flipped up and splattered on the side of my right hand. I started laughing until I noticed the man sitting at the table next to me. The majority of my ketchup was on his arm. I can't count how many times I apologized. I was so embarassed. To make matters worse, we kept running into the same couple the rest of the day.

Our most embarrassing moment was when our youngest DD was 4 years old she saw Chip & Dale over by Town Hall and she just had to see them. She ran full blast towards them and before we could stop her she ran right into Dale and hit him. Well you know how tall a 4 year old is and she nailed him. He never knew what hit him, neither did the woman assigned to watch him. He fell to the ground and was rolling and kicking. He never made a sound but I am sure he wanted too. Then our DD started crying when she realized she hurt him. Then he started to act like he was crying too, which made it worse for DD. Both of them laying on the ground crying and kicking. By then a lot of people were standing around starring. It was so funny. My DH was taking pictures instead of helping him up. My DD still remembers and talks about the time she hurt Dale.

Oh my gosh! Tink I can just imagine what that poor
chipmonk was thinking. Thank you guys for all these
great stories. I don't have one yet but I'm sure I
will one day and I promise I'll tell on myself. Remember I'm
not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you!

Actually, my story is about my brother. We were at the Hoop De Doo(Now prior to this, my friend and I were late to dinner, so my 2 brothers were at the table alone, which attracted a lot of attention for them since it looked like they had been stood up, and eventually the Hoop Players had chosen Jack to participate in their show as well), and as we were leaving, it started to POUR. I mean cats and dogs and chickens and cows pouring. So we all made a mad dash for the boat dock to take us back to the MK. Now the dock is made of wood, which gets slippery when it is raining so hard. He was running at full speed, when all of a sudden his foot slipped and there went my 6'2" brother, whammo, right on his face onto the dock. Well the rest of us were laughing so hard we all had to stop running and just laugh at him. Well, we weren't the only ones laughing. Already under the awning of the dock was this woman who witnessed the whole thing, and she was pointing at him and laughing at him out loud, and well, we all just laughed even more. What a rough day for Jack!

My most embrassing WDW experience was when I was 14.
My brothers and sister (who are all younger) were posing for a picture with Figment and the Red Bearded Scientist (yes, this was early 90's and I can't remember the guy's name) The Scientist (who was talking) was trying to convince me to get into the picture. Me (being the "too cool" teenager) flatly refused. Well, he decided I MUST be in the picture and starting yelling my name at the top of his lungs "Sarah! Sarah!" Then he starting asking all of the other guests to cheer me on. So, i finally got in the picture. Afterwards, the 30+ people who were now surrounding us began clapping and cheering my name. I was mortified!!! My family still teases me about it to this day.

This most embarrassing experience is really my sister's, not mine. As we were getting on Kali Rover Rapids, I started handing out ponchos to my family, ever prepared as I am. My sister was like, What do we need this for? I said, just put it on and thank me later. well, guess who got it bad after the first drop? Yup, my sister was swamped by the first wave. Well, the ponchos helped because she was all dry when she got off, except for one spot, right in her lap ( you can guess where) so she runs to the bathroom to try to dry it, and comes out so red, and says " they know how to do everything here don't they!" The wet spot was in the perfect shape of a hidden Mickey!!! She wouldn't let me take a picture of it and it too soon dried up.

OMG! I have been thinking about starting this link for a few months! I am glad other people went before me! I actually have two emberassing moments!

One time when we were staying at POFQ, I got an unexpected guest, and I had to go to the store and purchase some............supplies (if you will). The store has quite a few people in there, so I try to act nonchalant, pickup my purchase and wander over to the line. Okay, it's bad enough that I have to buy these with a crowded store, but there is a young guy at the register. Still trying to act like this is no big deal, I place the unmentionables on the counter so that I can pay for them.......Doesn't he look at them and YELL across the store to another CM, "How much are these tampons?" I just looked at him wishing the floor would swallow me up! The whole store stops and looks at me! He then realized how embarassed I was, and says "Sorry, they just changed our computers and some things aren't ringing up on the register." I'm thinking to myself, just give me my item in a bag, and please let me leave.

Another really embarassing time was our New Year's Eve trip when our kids were really small. DD's were 5 and 3 and DS had just turned 2. We were there with several friends from NY and NC and had gone to CM for dinner. We are all having a great time and it was time to go. When I picked up DS from his high chair, I noticed his bottom was wet. So I quickly told my DH and ran with him to the bathroom. I realized that his bottom wasn't just wet, but was poop. Messy, green poop! I had to completely strip him down and I didn't have any spare clothes with me, they were all in our room at the ASSp. It was cold out, so I came out of the bathroom, found DH and told him what happened. I ended up going into the store and purchasing pj's that were several sizes too big. (So big in fact, that DS has now just grown into them and he is going on 6 years old!)

Okay, bad enough, we get back to the hotel room and get him in his own clothes. This ends up happening over and over again on the trip. On New Year's Eve, we went to EPCOT first thing in the morning with some of our friends. I bring all of our New Year's Eve shirts that we bought with me to change into later on in the day so that they don't get dirty.

The day passes and the sun starts to set, I take all the kids into the bathroom and change them into their NYE shirts. We go about EPCOT exploring some more when I all of a sudden feel this wet feeling coming out of my son! I realize instantly what that is and start running to the restroom with my eldest DD in tow carrying the backpack! I could literally SEE the poop oozing out of his pants! By the time I got to the restroom, I had poop everywhere.....all over his clothes and his shoes, on the bottom of my shirt, on the top of my shorts, on my socks, and on my sneakers!

I changed his diaper and cleaned him up and rolled up all of his clothes. (So much for keeping his shirt clean until the evening!) Then I stood there with that lovely powder soap and water and baby wipes trying to get all the poop out of my clothes and off my socks and sneakers. By the time I came out of the restroom, the sun had set and DH was looking at me like OMG! My son is completely naked except his diaper because he had already gone through all the extra clothes I had carried with me that day. So once again I had to go into a store and buy him an outfit. To this day, that outfit hangs in his closet because that was the most expensive poopy outfit in the world!

I guess you had to be there, but both times were so very, very embarassing!

This thread is GREAT! I'm racking my brain to think of something to contribute. My problem is that I'm, oh, overly carefuly and (Dave would say) uptight, and I somehow seem to avoid the really embarrassing stuff. Here are three things I can think of:

1. Dave, Allie, and I went to Playhouse Disney for a show. And as you may know, everyone sits on the floor. Well, when I got up I realized my behind felt funny. I'd sat on a big wad of gum! So I say something to Dave, and he starts examining my rear in front of everyone. Then he calls over a CM, who does the same thing! I was bright red from embarassment. So the CM offered to buy a new pair of shorts to me, so we walked on over to the nearest clothing store, which was near the front of the park. And I just know everyone behind me was wondering why this lady had a huge wad of gum on her behind!

2. Dave and I were taking photos for the book in Animal Kingdom this summer. For one photo, we wanted to show how you could cool off on a hot day. So I bought an orange pop and stood under a misting fan with my hat and neck-coolie-thing. So I'm grinning for the camera while Dave snaps away. During the entire "photo shoot," the orange pop was dribbling all over me. When we were done, my entire front was covered with bright orange streaks... and they would not wash off! So much for posing for more photos that day!

3. We had an important meeting scheduled with the DVC media people this summer. One of us (who shall go unnamed) got the time wrong and we left for the meeting 30 minutes late. We explain this to our taxi driver, who ends up taking us the LOOONG way to Celebration... it takes 40 minutes when it should have taken 10. So we're all stressed out about how late we are when the taxi drops us off in front of Celebration. While Dave is negotiating down the price for the ridiculous driving, I walk up to the entrance of the building. While I'm waiting there, a wasp divebombs my hand and stings me! Now, I'm terrified of stinging insects and I avoid them like the plague -- I haven't been stung since I was a child. So I start crying in front of the other people waiting there! My hand is killing me and I'm terribly shaken up. So now we're an hour late, I've got a wasp sting, and tears are streaming down my face. We went into the meeting anyway, which was the type that's held in a conference room and really quite formal. I'd stopped crying by the time the meeting started, but I have the kind of face that shows tear marks for an hour. I was so embarrassed!
