"What is the strangest thing you ever saw at Disney?"
One Reddit thread is diving into this very topic, with one Disneyland Guest recalling a time that a toddler peed on his friend's pants while waiting to watch "Fantasmic!"
Waiting For 'Fantasmic!'
One Disney fan took to the Reddit thread to recall a very strange (and quite disgusting) time that his wife's friend had while waiting for "Fantasmic!" at Disneyland a few years ago.
"Many years ago, my wife was at Disneyland with her mother and some of her friends," the user began. "One of whom (we'll call Jane) was rather prim and proper, white slacks as the most casual thing she worse kind of prim and proper."
"Well, they wanted to watch 'Fantasmic' (this was before reservations and dining packages, this was just grab a spot and wait an hour or two in advance)," they continued. "Well, this friend, who we are calling Jane, decided to tough it out and spread a park map on the ground and sat waited for the show. No problem. The map was clean enough to sit upon."
Toddler Can't Hold It Anymore At Disneyland
As time went on, more people arrived to wait for the iconic show, including one family who had a toddler, and waited directly behind this friend "Jane". "Over time, many other people arrived to also wait for the show," they continued to explain. "The people immediately behind Jane had a little toddler. How cute. And food and drinks for the wait. Great. Food and drinks were had. Breaks were not."
According to the Reddit user, the toddler started to complain that they had to go to the bathroom, but the show was about to start and the restrooms were far. So, the parents told the child they had to wait.
Despite the child continuing to complain and protest that she had to go to the bathroom, the parents kept telling her she had to wait. But that is when it all went downhill.
"Eventually, just as the announcements are starting to [let the audience know] that the lights will be dimming around the river, Jane exclaimed 'WHY ARE MY PANTS WET?!?!?!?'," the user wrote.
That is when the family reportedly scooped up their little girl and went running off to the bathroom. However, Jane's pants, which were white, were now a shade of yellow.
What Happens Next?
The Reddit user went on to say that Jane did not want to miss the show or lose her spot so she sat there for the duration of "Fantasmic!" with wet pants. After the show ended, she went to Guest Services to complain about the incident, in which the Disney Cast Member handed her a voucher for a free pair of pants.
Another Disneyland Cast Member then helped Jane locate a new pair of sweatpants. "A kind store worker helped locate the most complete outfit for a snappy dame (some kind of purple sweatpants, and whatever else they could get with the voucher) and Jane was at least able to change out of most of the mess," the user continued to explain, adding that "Disney did not then and probably still does not sell adult female underpants".
