Weirdest Things Overheard at Disney

As you set off to explore the various Disney Parks, such as Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, or Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, it’s not uncommon to hear something from the crowds around you without even trying to listen in.

Here are just a few of the favorites…

1. “This was fun to ride after dark!” at the end of Pirates of the Caribbean at Magic Kingdom Park, which is a completely indoor ride.

2. “I JUST WANT TO SPAWN!” Those guests were trying to get from Space Mountain in Tomorrowland to Big Thunder Railroad in Frontierland while getting lost in a hoard of tourists.

3. A child at the start of Pirates of the Caribbean earnestly asks, “Will we survive?”

4. After wearing a face mask on the former Splash Mountain: “Wow, I just got waterboarded at Disneyland!”

5. “YOU RUINED IT FOR THE WHOLE LOG!” When someone flipped off the camera on the former Splash Mountain, meaning no one could have the picture.

6. “You’re bubbling me out right now.” A plea to a bubble-gun-happy toddler.

7. “For God’s sake, Brenda, stop buying things!” Honestly, this could have been overheard at any gift shop.

8. “Ducks are not allergic to pickles, Diane!” Seems like Diane just wanted to feed the ducks some of her leftovers.

These ones need no explanation:

1. “I know you’re bored, but we waited in line for over an hour to meet Ariel earlier, and now Mommy wants to meet Jafar because Jafar is Mommy’s type, okay?”

2. “I’ve cried tears of joy here. I’ve cried tears of sorrow here.”

3. “Is this the line for Allison? Allison Wonderland?”

4. “EITHER WE ALL HAVE FUN, OR NONE OF US HAVE FUN.”

About Lana Porter

Lana has never lost a Disney Trivia night. Maybe it’s the hundreds of times she’s been to Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, her love for Disney’s ’90’s era hand-animated musicals, or the fact that she’s often likened to cartoon characters, but Disney and its magic have a special place in her heart. Her favorite Disney experiences include the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival, eating Mickey Bars on the PeopleMover, and crying during the Magic Kingdom fireworks show. One day she hopes to be chosen as the rebel spy on Star Tours. When Lana isn’t Park Hopping, she’s at home reading books of all topics, watching her favs on Disney+, or snuggling her two cats, which she swears are not named after Disney characters. She loves surprising people with her knowledge of the Marvel Cinematic Universe but admits she is still catching up with Star Wars. She is happy to combine her excitement for writing with her love for Disney-style storytelling and share what she can with the world!
