Well actually, Gavin and ECG, I have 3 funny stories. I just didn't put it in the topic.
1. 6 skinny 40ish year olds at Epcot were racing in scooters and one crashed into another. The guys friends left and he had to get someone to help him push it back so he could pay for the damages.
2. Also at Epcot, a 20 year old with a puppet dinosaur was filming himself. He raced some old woman. I looked it up and it's on youtube! Lucky the Dinosaur at Epcot.
3. I was waiting for back seat on hurler. A train got back with a guy with a bruise in his cheek. He told the man that his face hit the guy's shoulder. The attendant said he was sorry. I walked right through the train to the exit. I wanted a credit, but not THAT bad.
See, I was just going to post later.

These two spanish guys at IoA were freaking out on Hulk and then we ended up on Dragon Challenge with a couple more spanish guys who freaked out just as much if not more than the guys on Hulk. My friend and I the same day got stuck for 15-20 minutes on Forbidden Journey and it was so funny because I dragged him on it against his will and we ended up getting stuck.

I have one pretty funny story to tell. Some few years ago my (old) school organised a trip to Mirabilandia. So, we were a group of 11-12 year olds. One of the kids in our group was pretty short for his age (I find the term midget offensive). So we began riding iSpeed, which was pretty much a walk-on throughout the day. First time riding the staff allowed him to ride, second time they've measured him and said that he is ok to ride, the third they've also measured him, but said that he is too short to ride the coaster. It was pretty hilarious :lol:

I plucked up the courage to go on that ridiculously wet water slide at Fantasy Island, only to be given a pretty deflated boat. I didn't think it would be an issue until I hit the first corner, and fell out!
Not that there was much point, but I managed to grab hold of the boat and get back in. It goes without saying that I was **** ing soaked through!

One of those 'you had to be there' moments, but dying with laughter with AJ at Disney California Adventure on the Silly Symphony Swings, we were just not expecting the music accompanying the ride to go so hilariously well and we just died the whole way around. Also, his reaction to Splash Mountain XD
Marc laughing at Raybould falling off of the trampoline, still makes me laugh even now! Brilliant.
CFers in a ball pit with a Down's Syndrome child. Funniest thing ever. XD
*in fits of hysterics now*

A hornet getting stuck down my shirt on Raging Wolf Bobs at Geauga Lake. I came off the ride with multiple stings on my back and next to my eye (which it stung after it flew out of my shirt).

Last year Jordan W (Goon in bright shorts) and I were in the front row queue for The Swarm, after we were given a ticket for the front row he dropped it and it peeled in half! He broke paper! We could not stop laughing!

Today I turned up at Old McDonald's Farm and walked up to everyone waiting whilst looking at my phone. I walked straight into a hanging basket!
Having a water fight in the queue for the Mouse at Flamingoland with other CFers.
I had a bottle of water and splashed a huge amount of it at somebody (I'm thinking possibly Dave (Gay but not), but it could have been anyone). I missed and hit this hugely muscled guy right across the back. He had his shirt off and was proper beefcake.
I rapidly span on the spot, and pretended to rip the bottle out of Minor_Furie's hands and started laying into him. "I've told you to stop with the water fighting and now you've hit somebody else. If you do it again you're going straight home" kind of thing and then apologised to the muscled bloke for my child's behaviour.
The guy was seriously pissed off, but obviously couldn't beat up a 10 year old kid so I got away with it :lol: Minor_Furie just stood there looking bemused.
I'll always remember standing in the queue for Grand National at Blackpool when I was about 14 or so. I heard some loud blokey type yell of "I've not seen a pair of melons like that since I was last at a greengrocers". I looked down the exit to see a rather unfortunate young lady in a crop top and no bra, with her well endowed elements having popped out during the ride; oblivious to the bouncing drama unfolded in front of her - well, oblivious until the loud, jeering Northern apes started yelling at her anyway.
There's also spastic man at Port Aventura, but that has to be done with actions

I have a couple of good ones.
When I was 12 I was spending a day trip at Canobie Lake Park. My older brother and I had decided to ride back row of Yankee Canonball (This was like my fifth time riding this). We were going up the lift hill and right before the first drop, my brother unbuckles my seatbelt! It was completely unexpected. I know this ride and other classic woodies used to just use loose lap bars, and that the seat belts are never tight, but the seat belts really are the only thing that keeps you in your seat on classic woodies! I probably could have quickly buckled it back in, but I was kind of struggling with it and it all happened in two seconds. So I rapped my arms around the lap bar and held on for dear life! Half of me was terrified, but half of me was enjoying it. I sort of ended up half-standing thoughout the rest of the ride.
But overall, I'm actually glad that my brother did that, because the ride ended up being a lot more exciting and fun! Although I'm not sure if I'll ever try something like that again....
The other story was during my big family trip to Cedar Point last year. We were all riding Gemini for the first time, and during the ride I kept high-fiving this guy who was in the other train. Halfway through the ride, on one of the turns, I was going for another high five and the guy- who decided to mess with me- grabbed my arm for a good second! I wasn't mad at him, but my mother- who was in the seat right behind him- saw what happened and screamed, "LET GO OF MY SON!"
It would've been much worse but probably even funnier if the guy did it to some younger kid. But anyway, I think that's all I have.
