Disney World is a top family destination, which means it’s full of adorable kids and hilariously awkward family moments. For parents, those moments can be particularly memorable!
From meltdowns to rollercoaster rides, some of the funniest things parents shared on a viral Reddit threat that they overheard at Disney World left them laughing until they cried.
1. “What Good Would That Do, Richard?!!”
One Redditor reports that he and his wife were strolling through the park when they spotted a recent that had just gotten off a water ride. The woman was absolutely drenched from head to toe; and clearly mad. Her spouse attempted to console her by suggesting she use one of the hand dryers nearby—an offer that did not go over well. “What good would THAT do, RICHARD?!” she spat back in an angry tone.
This is now a common phrase they use as a joke that makes them laugh every time.
2. “Mommy, Daddy Has a Girlfriend”
Another man reports a funny exchange between a little girl and her moms. He wasn’t sure how old the girl was because he didn’t want to turn around and look. When she was walking with her mom she suddenly said, “Mommy, daddy has a girlfriend,” in a loud voice. Her mom got mad and yelled at her to stop saying that.
The man says that it took all of his effort not to laugh out loud. When he looked over at his wife, she was also struggling to keep it together.
3. What That Worth a Fast Pass?
One commenter recalls a dad laughing to himself and asking his kids if the Haunted Mansion was worth a fast pass. He asked this question right after all of his kids burst into tears in the first few minutes of the ride.
4. Time to Cool Off!
One Redditor recalls walking in behind a dad and his child to see Muppets 3D in July. The kid hesitates to enter, asking his dad what it was again. The dad hilariously answered, “It’s air-conditioned with a comfortable seat. Someone could punch you in the face for the next ten minutes, and you will love it.”
5. Are the Animals Free Roaming?
One entire family reports hearing a kid ask a cast member at Animal Kingdom if the “tigers are free roaming.” The family thought it was hilarious and kept quoting it for the rest of their Disney trip.
6. I Promise, It’s Not That Fast
Two stories revolved around a rollercoaster called the Test Track; both involved the other riders promising the ride wasn’t that fast. Unfortunately, one little boy and one woman were duped and had to endure a speedy ride while screaming their heads off.
The riders were not impressed, but the people around them found it hilarious.
7. Am I Tall Enough?
One rider recalls being behind a mom and her son, who was “just tall enough” when he went the entrance for Thunder Mountain. He started laughing when the son yelled loudly to his mom, “can I take the napkins out of my shoes now?”
8. Disney World: A Celebration for Kids or Parents?
An Epcot employee said he used to work at a drink stand that only sold alcoholic beverages. When a dad and son came up to get a drink (the some was like 10), the son was sad to learn there weren’t any non-alcoholic drinks.
The dad quickly responded that it was okay and that today wasn’t about his son because it was HIS birthday. The employee laughed so hard that he almost spilled the dad’s drink.
9. No Trantrums Allowed
One reader hilariously recalls a mom yelling at her son, who was throwing a fit, saying, “This is a HAPPY. FUN. PLACE.” The irony was not lost anyone within earshot.
10. You Better Enjoy Your Time Here
One dad admits that he yelled at his kids, “Do you know how much this trip cost?!! Now have fun, darn it!” Many parents can definitely relate.
11. Don’t Lick That!
A monorail rider recalls a mom yelling at her son to stop licking the pole severe times before threatening that he wasn’t going to get a treat once they got inside the gates.
Anyone with kids knows that they can have an affinity for licking the most disgusting things!
12. That Should Be Enough
One dad recalls seeing a family of six. He heard the dad say he needed to stop at an ATM to pull out $100 for the day for lunch and dinner. The posting dad felt sorry for the reality check this dad was about to get when he tried to keep his kids fed off of such a small amount (for Disney standards).
