While many Guests are acutely aware of the fact that they are not the only people visiting Walt Disney World, some people do not seem to realize that. While things bumping into others while on your phone or accidentally hitting someone with your bag while trying to squeeze by are bound to happen to a lot of Guests, they are accidents. Apologies are said and people move on. However, one Guest recently had such an unbelievable experience with another Guest that the police were called, and battery charges could have been filed.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office recently released a police report that was filed on October 2, 2021 — one day after Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebration began. According to the report, a woman and her family were sitting along Main Street, U.S.A. as they waited for the special 50th “Mickey’s Celebration Cavalcade” to begin. A woman then walked right in front of the woman and sat on her feet, so she could be in the front and have the best view. The woman moved her feet out from under the “influencer”.

According to the report, the influencer sat on the sidewalk with her feet out in the street and was asked multiple times by Magic Kingdom Cast Members to move her feet. She ignored them, and then the woman told her that Cast Members were telling the influencer to move her feet. The woman then claimed that the influencer screamed at her that she knew Cast Members were speaking to her, boasted that she had 20,000 followers, and tapped the woman’s sunglasses.

A manager then came over and told the influencer that she needed to move, as the other woman and her family had been there first. That only further angered the unknown influencer. Eventually, the woman and her family got up and left, but noticed the influencer following her. They went to Magic Kingom security, who called the police and told them there was a battery issue at the Park.

By the time police arrived, the woman said that she did not want to press charges and the unknown influencer was gone.
