Forgot to share a Disneyland experience with a very rude guest at the park.

Plenty of selfish idiots in Disney parks. But I think you'll find them less often there compared to real life.

Holy cow, I cannot believe the people that camp out for parades.

Watch the parades on youtube sometime filmed by someone who did camp out.

I love Disneyland but would never wait 2 hours for a parade that passes me by in 10 minutes.

Yeah, I'd rather ride the rides then wait for a parade.

The Christmas parade was one of the highlights for our fam. The Electrical parade is magical. Just look:

Why not just eat with her?

Hobo

5/17/22 11:15am

Because I had a family that needed more seats and she was taking one.

WJCougar

5/17/22 11:19am

Was she by herself or was she trying to save tables for her family? If she was alone, you probably should have allowed

IBC

She was trying to save tables for her family too. It was a power play.

WJCougar

5/17/22 11:20am

Then use " Have you heard the most annoying sound in the world?"

Hobo

I kind of agree. It’s not like you have ‘personal space’ at Disney. It’s a

kotacoug

5/17/22 11:20am

Not when you have a family you need the entire table for.

WJCougar

5/17/22 11:21am

The way lines are at Disney she might have been done before your family even

kotacoug

5/17/22 11:23am

Why was your family more important than hers? She was just trying to do what you were doing, she was just more assertive

IBC

5/17/22 11:31am

I sat down at the table first. She should have moved on to another like.....

WJCougar

5/17/22 11:32am

I get that, but, was she waiting on the table before you got there? I'm not trying to justify her behavior just that you

IBC

5/17/22 11:38am

No, the table opened up as I saw a family leave, me and my daughter sat down....

WJCougar

5/17/22 11:41am

That didn't seem rude to me, but to each their own

IBC

5/17/22 11:50am

I'm glad you were there to know how rude she was or wasnt.

WJCougar

5/17/22 12:29pm

I'm just going off of what you have said and IMO she wasn't rude

IBC

5/17/22 12:46pm

Oh, she was very rude.

WJCougar

5/17/22 11:21am

You rewarded her behavior.

Abe Froman

5/17/22 11:18am

Unfortunately yes....but she was not going to leave and I did not....

WJCougar

some fights aren't worth the effort.

Belboz

5/17/22 11:23am

True. We found another table within 5 minutes so in the end it was OK....

WJCougar

5/17/22 11:27am

It sounds like you left without making a fool of yourself. You won.

Belboz

5/17/22 11:29am

Well, I did tell her where to go as I walked away....so maybe not 🙂

Disney eating/seating arrangements are such that sharing a table with a stranger

What a horrific place. You cant even expect to eat alone with your family?

We mobile ordered and then found a table.

If you wanted to get rid of her, you should have started asking her about her day, who she was with, where she was from

Bob Vance

I would have sat so close to her that I would have been in her personal bubble.
