I tend to like to be in a lot of embarrasing moments, and being in Disneyland is no exception.
One time a cast member caught two friends and me trying to hide in Tom Sawyer Island to be able to watch Fantasmic! from there.
Last time I went I was trying to get a good shot of the Observatron and I was focusing my camera lens when someone passed in front of me in the moment I took the picture, I thought he was a friend but it was a janitor, and the worst part is that I tried to kick him.

I was riding Grizzly River Rapids and I was wearing these tan shorts, and at the time I didnt realize how thin the material was....

So on the ride, I got soaked, but it seemed all the water made a bee-line for my lower-body. So my whole lower half was just drenched and the material of the shorts was so thin, that the shorts became see-through. That wasnt so bad, but that particular day, I decided to wear a pair of my favorite boxers...The boxer themsleves is a big, BRIGHT British flag that say "swinger" on the uhh....bum!! If you can picture that....They are actually part of the Austin Power's collection!

The shorts were so soaked, that it was so easy for everyone to tell that I was a swinger....

Ahh, Good times!

I was leaning against what I thought was a stationary railing in line for Alice in Wonderland, but it was actually a railing that's moveable. When I leaned back, I fell hard, right into a bunch of people, who found it very amusing.

I got my Annual Pass back in August when I hadn't cut my hair for almost a year. A few months later, I cut it..... short.... and now, when I pull up to get a parking ticket, and I hand the attendant my AP, he'll sometimes say "is she in the car with you?" thinking that the long haired me is a female. After I say "No, that's me", he'll just hand me a ticket in silence, probably more embarrassed than I am.

I have been to Orlando,Paris and Anahiem and can safely say I have never embarrassed myself.But look on the bright side if you do make a fool out of yourself in front of people whats the chances of ever seeing them again.I could run naked though its a small world and no one would ever remember me.

It was the last elevator of the night on the Haunted Mansion. Closing time had come and gone. After midnight. Seven of us are in the elevator waiting for our decent. Waiting, waiting, waiting. I'd have guessed the CMs were stalling for last minute stragglers before dropping us guests to the ride level. But there were no CMs to be found. None in the foyer, none out front of the Mansion. 10 minutes, 15 minutes goes by. Still nothing.

For the first and only time in my hundreds of times on Haunted Mansion, some CM had actually left the elevator control panel open and then abandoned the guests to their own devices. Well, after a 15 minute wait, my own device was to push the GO button on the OPEN control panel and start the show already.

The other guests seemed to have appreciated that and everything went smooth until just as my doombuggy was about to leave the loading area. They stopped the ride and ordered me & my friend out of our doombuggy. Someone had ratted me out! Guess they wanted to wait in the elevator until morning. Well, the lead Haunted Mansion mistress, all decked out in her HM garb and appearing out of the dark locker room area like an apparition, stepped up to within an inch of my face and proceeded to let me have it. Now, I have been yelled at by CMs before, but this was a full-on witchy screamfest. A handful of other CMs gathered round to witness my humiliation. It was embarassing, but tinged with delight because she was almost in character as she let me have it.

When she was finished, I politely pointed out that the controls were left open and, since there were no CMs in sight for 15 minutes, I had assumed it was a self-serve elevator like Rocket Jets. She wasn't buying that, but truly there is no excuse for the CM leaving the panel open and then leaving the guests alone for that long. Someone was bound to press that big, red button.

Anyway, they escorted us through the bowels of the Mansion and we were unceremoniously kicked out at the edge of the graveyard. Disneyland was long-since closed. Even Main Street no longer remained open for our shopping convenience. So we got to walk through the Park in total emptiness. All in all, a someone embarassing, somewhat thrilling experience.

This is easy and VERY juvinile!

My girlfriend and I went on Haunted Mansion while the other people we were with went on Pirates. We got on the ride and started making out. There were two boys with thier mom in front of us that were commenting!

"Ew , gross! What are they doing? Ooh - they're in LOVE!"

I could have died! :eek:

Ok. I am now laughing uncontrolably! Will you please, please, pretty please, recreate this faux paux next time you are down and I am at DCA. It is just too funny!

I was following a friend of mine who was in an ECV through the exit of the Indiana Jones ride (they use the exit for the handicapped entrance), when I slipped on (get this) a banana and went down hard. I pulled myself up, cursing the day that Disney ever started selling fresh fruit in the park, and limped to the boarding area, blood running down my left leg. The rather horrified CMs took me to the employees' restroom (don't get too excited folks--a toilet's a toilet, even at Disneyland), where I could clean up. I didn't make a federal case out of the accident, but I did end up with a sprained knee.

If only this had happened in Toontown, the joke would've been complete. ("Garsh, Mickey--that feller found my banana!")

Hmm, this isn't really embarressing to me but I think the guy was.

Anywho, we had gone up to Disneyland for my 15th and my sisters 18th birthdays {one day off}. My brother took us, we did not get along, he is somewhat of a punk, and I am not saying 'punker', K?

We took my niece and nephew, who are our ages, and ditched him {brother} as soon as possible. We proceeded to have a blast. Terrorizing the canoe guides and anyone else we could.

We were on our way up the People Mover escalator, all four of us just hanging out, not walking up. We look down and see my brother stuffing his face {I mean, if it were an Olympic event, he would win. As long as manners didn't count.} Big thick neck, just imagine something out of Animal House.

So this nice looking guy in front of us also sees my brother. He kind of chuckles. He says, this guy actually says this {and I am sure he felt bad} 'Ha, ha! That guy looks like he O.D.'d on ugly pills!!'

Now, 3 of us cracked up. My older sister was offended. She said,
'That's my brother.'

Now, this guy almost choked. He turned around so quickly and we didn't see him again.

Has everyone heard my Indiana Jones and the Flaming Tampon tale or should I repeat the story of my embarassment???

I originally posted it in a thread quite a while back, I wonder if it's still around.....

I just used the search function to find this old thread. The very disturbing thing was I used the word "tampon" and 4 threads came up!! Do you all remember the christmas tree ornament?

The thread my story appears in is labeled The Weirdest thing for anyone who is interested in sharing my shame. Thanks for noticin' me.

Well odds are the cameras caught you, but you really signed your own death warrant if (depending on the year) you were making a reference to an attraction that is gone.:D Stilll funny, just not to the insurance people.
