Third Pooping Incident in Line at Guardians of the Galaxy Attraction Causes Closure

In an unusual series of events, a third “pooping incident” has occurred today in the line at Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Breakout! at Disney California Adventure (DCA). According to a report from a Disneyland cast member, the latest incident has led to a temporary closure of a section of the ride’s queue, where the smell was reported to be noticeable to guests.

Bizzare and Concerning Incident at DCA

The incident, which marks the second of its kind in one day and its third time this month, has raised eyebrows among park visitors and cast members alike. The unnamed cast member, who works at DCA, relayed the information through an internal cast communication platform, sharing that a portion of the line had to be closed off for cleaning.

“THERE HAS BEEN A 3RD POOPING INCIDENT AT GUARDIANS TODAY‼️

I’m a cast member at DCA and one of my friends who works at guardians has reported a 3rd pooping incident in line at guardians and they have closed a portion of the line where it occurred and can be smelt.”

While Disneyland and DCA are no strangers to quirky moments or unusual occurrences, the frequency of these incidents has taken many by surprise. As of now, it is unclear whether the incidents are isolated or if there is a specific trend causing the disruptions.

The Guardians of the Galaxy attraction, a fan-favorite ride based on the popular Marvel franchise, typically has long queues, especially during peak visiting hours. It’s no surprise that such incidents could cause disruptions and delays, as the queue area for Mission: Breakout! can be tight, and any closures or interruptions may affect the experience for park-goers.

What’s Next for the Ride?

In response to the third incident, Disneyland has yet to release an official statement. Disneyland’s stringent health and safety protocols have been well-established in the post-pandemic era, but incidents like these remind both cast members and guests that unexpected challenges can still arise.

The news of the multiple incidents has sparked some buzz among park visitors. While many are laughing it off, others have expressed concern over the impact these disruptions may have on their experience. It remains unclear whether these incidents will become a recurring issue, but Disneyland’s operations teams will undoubtedly continue to monitor the situation closely.

At this time, Disneyland has not announced any specific changes to its attraction policies, but park-goers are advised to be aware of potential delays or changes in the queue as the cleaning process continues.

Stay tuned for updates on the situation at Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Breakout! and for more details regarding the resolution of this unusual series of incidents.

  1. I was a cast member for the college program and a 2 year old lowered her diaper and peed all over the floor in the middle of Pooh Corner she missed her chance with the teeming! There’s always puking (protein spills) peeing, and pooping all over the park.

  2. First of all, if it is a grown up, be prepared, wear an adult diaper for heaven sakes. If it is your child, shame on you. Clean up your own messes. This is ridiculous. You know it is going to take an extremely long time to get on the ride.

  3. This is disgusting not to mention it could be dangerous to others. Is it a virus? Who knows! Why can’t they wait? Child or adult – don’t care. If they defecate in a que they shoud be removed from the park. I beleive CM’s can see who the offender is and they can be called out. There is no excuse – Disney makes allowances for people to get off the line and if you have a condition then you know and should be prepared. Oh – and before they are removed from the park have them clean their own mess!

  4. Seem Disney could solve these problems by putting in porta toilets on rides that have an hour. Or more wait..Otherwise people need to put On the their diapers before gettin in line.

    1. Seriously there’s no way they should do portable toilets. Grown ups should be able to wait, or know that it’s coming and get out of lines. If it’s a child’s the parents watch their child. No need to put portable toilets everywhere.

  5. I may be mis-remembering, but doesn’t Avatar, Flight of Passage have a bathroom in some deep part of the queue? It’s built in, not a portable. That would make life a lot easier on lots of long line rides.
