Default Ever cried during a show?

I know the Disney Magic gets to all of us once in a while, but I wanted to know how many people actually can admit they've cried at Disneyland!

First off, I can admit...I've cried during the new fireworks show. It brings so much to me and helps me to realize that dreams can come true and will if you believe in it strongly enough. I've also cried during the Christmas Fantasy parade. I love christmas, and that parade always brought me into the wonderland that was known as winter and made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. -smile- Yeah...I'm a 15 year old sap. My best friend also cried during the Snow White Musical we went to see all the time. She said she loves 'happy endings', and Disney is chalkfull of them.

Anyway, I'd love to hear your tear-jerking stories! Don't let your ego be bruised, it happens to the best of us! Hehe.

Yeah, I've cried during shows, parades, fireworks... heck, I've even cried during rides! But mostly it's just the little things that get to me. I have the most adorable picture I took of this little girl sitting in Sleeping Beauty's lap during the princess storytelling. Every time I look at that picture my eyes get a little misty just remembering the little girl trying to get the attention of the princess's and crawling in Sleeping Beauty's lap and even offering Sleeping Beauty her Cabbage Patch doll. It was so sweet to watch. I always get a little misty-eyed watching kids in DL. It just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!

I'm a total sap, so yes I can honestly tell you I've cried at Disneyland. Once at the end of the Beauty and the Beast show (that movie always chokes me up!) I cried during the video at the opera house starring Steve Martin, during the new fireworks show, and after my first time on Soaring Over California. Disneyland in itself makes me emotional. I didn't grow up with it, in fact the first time I ever went there I was 33 with 3 little kids! It is just so special to me for a lot of reasons.

I usually get a little choked up during Fantasmic, but it's the fireworks shows that do it for me. It never failed, but Believe usually had me in tears at the end.
I think that the most I've ever cried was during the holiday version of Believe, when my wife and I first went after we got married. I'll never forget: as soon as the snow started to fall and "White Christmas" started playing, she turned to me and we just embraced each other, tears running down our cheeks. As the snow started to clear, she leaned back and that's when I saw one of the most precious things: a couple, probably no more in their 30s, looked down at their newborn baby and were so happy that they both started crying. The daddy was holding the newborn as his wife wrapped her arms around him, and you could see what they were saying as they whispered to each other, "I love you." Watching those shows, you witness the true "magic" as it does nothing more than lift your spirits, fill you with good feelings, and the only way to release it is to cry.

Wow, just thinking about it and I'm almost crying.

SURE! My kids thought I was nuts but hey - it was like saying goodbye to old friends!

Cried during the last show of The Hunchback of Notre Dame - we knew everyone and had a blast seeing the show for it's full run

Cried during the last show of Animazement - we loved that show and again, same performers as the Hunchback show, we didn't know when or what show would be next

Last year - actually in Feb, my last time as a AP holder - I cried leaving the park - literally in tears trying to take pictures - cried during Snow White cause I just wanted to see it again and I couldn't - cried at my last show of the Billies - we've known these guys when my kids were 6 and 4 (they are now 16 and 14) the guys watched my girls grow up - having to say 'see ya later' to them was very hard

Gosh I'm getting misty eyed now!!!!

Yes, I cried when I made a special trip to see the last showing of the MSEP when it was in Disneyland. I also cried on 5/5/05 during the parade of dreams, when I was there for the 50th with my brother, right when Walt says his famous words, "To all who come to this happy place...welcome", and all through to the very end of that parade. Even to this day when I watch RU's video and watch that part for the grand finale, I still cry. Also when I saw Remember...Dreams come true for the first time on 5/5/05, I started to cry when that little girl is singing right in the beginning of the song "Wishes". Call me weird but I got so emotional because I was so happy and full of joy!

The fireworks always get to me, but I've never fully cried. Mark my words though, in 3 weeks when I go with my boyfriend, I'll be bawling. Sometimes things just get to me more, and everything means more when he's with me. I can't wait. The fireworks are awesome!!!!

P.S.- I'm so excited! Get this... I leave on Monday, July 25th, for DL. We come back th 29th, and then we leave on Aug. 3rd for WDW. We come back the 9th, and the 14th is when my boyfriend and I leave for DL. THREE Disney trips with only 4 days in between. Call me a lucky duck... or mouse. :)

Fantasmic. Mickey appears on top of the mill on TSI and the crowd goes wild and I just couldn't help it. I was so happy. Everyone was so happy. Even the CD gets me because I can still remember the feeling.

How ironic, because when I'm there and I'm so happy when watching a show, all I can do is get teary-eyed! :P

So silly....

I was on the edge of tears for some reason when I watched the 10am ceremony on the 17th, and again during Remember, and while watching the Parade of Dreams. That's never happened to me before, and it's quite a curiosity to moi.

For some reason I always got teary eyed during Parade of Dreams. Some of it had to do with our family having such a wonderful time and I knew we had to leave soon. The music really " spoke " to me. Such wonderful memories!

I started to during the 4:45 video on the 17th... The only thing that stopped me from really crying anything was the fact the video focused more on showing things like someone spinning in a rocket jet whenever she sang "Fly away" or fitting other cheesy things to match the lyrics Otherwise whenever they showed Walt during that(they needed more! ) it started to get to me.
