bacily do the title.

Someone asked me "where is the E.T. ride?" I took the being funny route and said "on that island" they went to Tom sawar island.

Thats funny, you tricked them into going to Tow Sawyer island. That is a stupid question, i have ever heard. Where is the E.T. ride? You are in Disneyland not in Universal Studios Hollywood.

Man on PA: "Attention please, if you are thinking that you are in another theme park, please wait outside near the entrance and leave."

After just reading the Mouse Tales books, I went to DL. My husband and I decided to eat lunch at the Blue Bayou. We had never been there before and were very excited! Well, not wanting to be one of those guests who ask silly questions......we get seated and I immediatly ask where the restroom was (we had gotten up at 3a.m and drove straight to DL from the bay area ). Anyways, my eyes weren't adjusted yet, and we were seated right by the entrance to the restrooms! I felt so silly. I apoligized to our hostess. Now I am one of those annoying guests! Ahh Oh well, at least I did not ask what time the 3 o'clock parade was!!

Funniest part about that is the ET ride @ USH hasn't existed for about 2 years now So whoever that was believed the ET ride existed, it was in Disneyland, and that it was on Tom Sawyer Island? Wow

There was this woman at the Brother Bear show in CA ADV, and she was trying to be cute telling the Castmember working the show that people in Washington state (where I'm from) can't pronounce tortillas right. She said, "In Washington, they say it 'tor-till-yas' instead of 'tor-tee-yas'" I looked at her like she was insane! What a dumb thing to say =) Of COURSE we can pronounce it right!

this isnt so stupid as it is gosh darn cute...

but we were in line for tower of terror, getting ready to enter the library, and we were near a bunch of 8 year olds. One of them saw the "out of order" elevators and asked the bell hop if the ride broke down. He responded in a very dry "We're sorry sir. Our guest elevators arent working properly. We are preparing a service elevator for you instead" The child, whom I dont know, turned to my group and asked "is this part of the ride?" Well the parents looked at us and smiled, and we took it in stride and said "Nope, it looks like there's something strange going on in the hotel". The parents chuckled and played along, and I felt like a cool guy.

So we go in the library, and the kids are just floored with all the effects and the lightning... when the show ends, and the lights come back on the kid says with a disturbing grin "oooh no... we're all gonna die"

So we do the boiler room... and we all end up in the same elevator together... we get buckled in, and instead of moving, the ride malfunctions, and goes into emergency shutdown. We're still at the elevator doors, looking at the bel hop CM and she's telling us there was a sensory problem, and that we would be moved to another shaft. In the meantime she tells us to remain seated in the elevator for the time being. So right now its just our elevator car, sitting quietly in the elevator. While that wouldnt unnerve you at all... they were still playing the background elevator sounds, so it was certainly building up inside the lil kid. Then, the kid announces that "were all gonna die", and proceeds to tell us all individually of that. His predictions are effective enough to scare his kid sister off from riding, and the rest of the car is trying so so hard not to giggle. Fortunately for me, he told me I wasnt gonna die... so I took that as a sign that I was a cool guy in the kid's eyes. We eventually rode... he screamed like a lil girl, and we all went our separate ways.

Again its not a stupid story neccessarily... but the kid thought I was cool. and thats always a great way to end a story.

The stupidest thing I ever saw at Disneyland was a group of teens tossing opened mustard and ketchup packets from the old Skyway cars on unsuspecting folks below. These guys were also doing a great job of drawing attention to themselves by rocking their car back and forth under the cables. When we got to the Fantasyland Skyway exit there was a nice security detail waiting for them. You see, each car also had a number printed on each side making it visible to the crowds below. Duh! The dumbest thing I ever did there was having a cheesburger eating contest then riding the teacups. Part of the bet was to see who could keep their lunch down the longest so we did multiple rides. I was watching my brother and friends while waiting in line for my turn when suddenly I saw this stream of ...(you get the picture) go flying in a spiraling motion. I held my own but felt real rocky for a couple of hours after my ride. The hardest part was not thinking about what I had witnessed while still feeling green. The dumbest thing I ever heard of at DL was people standing up on the Matterhorn. What? Were they trying to give new definition to the word "Splat!" for the Guiness Book of World Records?

Hey, I love MOUSE TALES. Its really funny and a good read. I like the part where the Lion eats another when Disney had the circus out front! Anyways, The dumbest thing I heard was some lady told her kids that the next ride they would go to would be Space Mountain. Guess what,we were in line for Space Mtn. She was a hippy with hairy armpits so I just blew it off and kept my mouth shut. Must have been to one too many parties in the 70's. GROOVY!

well, if they were in line for space mountain, wouldn't the next ride they were going to actually go on be space mountain? It would be next, if they hadn't ridden it yet, right?

I worked at the park from 89-92, and was asked that question at least once a day (no lie) while standing in front of the restroom. The majority of those people, oddly enough, where not from other countries. I would always just smile, and point behind me, and the guest and myself would have a laugh over it. One time, on a hot, bad day, I was standing in front of the restrooms next to Village Hause, and was asked that most common of questions. I did the very un-Disney thing, and directed him to the nearest restroom...at the Hungry Bear! Needless to say, I did feel bad, and chased after him to re-direct him the the ones that were behind me.

That's pretty funny. You would think they could figure some thing out themselves!
