Saw a huge fight while waiting for the doors to open at “Its a Bugs Life” , maybe in 2008. Man with his family, had a back-pack on, he turned to say something to one of his kids, and while turning, his back pack hit the woman close to him . The woman’s husband (who also had a back pack), started screaming at the man whose pack pack hit his wife. Before I knew it, the hot headed guy started punching the man. They both ended up on the ground. The hot head was on top of the man beating him up. Lots a swearing and blood everywhere. All this in front of kids.
We saw it all because it happened right in front of us. We had to go to the Police station in the park and give our statement. Thank god we did because they arrested the original man with the back pack. Our signed statement probably saved that man from going to jail.
The problem was she decided she could park her stroler anywhere and the cast member simply moved. Most likey because it was blocking people traffic. She yelling because he touched and moved it.
And since there was no sign, she can do what she wants.
She has see a professional level issues
There are designated stroller parking areas in ALL Disney parks. If a stroller looks abandoned, security is called in to check for hazardous items (think “bang!” or “boom!”). Often, cast members will move “green” (visually safe) strollers to designated parking areas if found abandoned in common areas. They pose a safety hazardous as well as a liability hazardous. THAT is why cast members and/or Security move strollers.
So. Cast members constantly move the strollers to condense them as people leave and there are open spots. It keeps them all in the designated areas and organized. That is why you are supposed to put something on your stroller to make it easy to see, such as a balloon or flag. It will never be in the same place as you left it.
This is Getting worst it seems there is a fight every week now. Do people think they are untitled we go a lot and I see a difference in the people act when they are in the parks they are rude and act like they are the only ones paying. It’s not like it use to be.
There are CMs all over the place ask where to park the stroller. You’re expending way more energy parking it in the wrong place and going around angrily looking for it
Karen’s are so entitled! Several years ago we were returning to our hotel through the monorail after a Halloween party. The Monorail was full. My husband and I entered first to the cabin, then entered this Karen with a big kid on a stroller, completely stretched and comfortable. She placed the stroller in the middle and she sat in the middle of the seat in front of us. Then entered a family of 5 also with a stroller. The Husband, seeing that the other stroller was in the middle, gently pushed it to the other door, and that is when the Karen turned into a fury. She started yelling that nobody has to touch her stroller. She acted like a selfish entitled demon.
The husband excused himself with a simple sorry, the kids sat beside the demon, that kept saying her crazy things, and husband and wife beside us. We were so angry so I commented loudly to my husband. “You have to be so damn selfish” while looking at her. That worked like ice water and she lowered her voice, but you could see her lips moving and mumbling. When we reached the hotel, guess what?!, We all were leaving but her, so she had to move her huge stroller to allow us to pass.
I have to admire the other family. The father just excuse himself and ignored her the rest of the way. The kids sat and look at their parents and the mother kept silent, and kept her dignity, they did not lowered themselves to the level of the Karen.
Guests have literally always Ben angry about their strollers
My advice?:
C o p e
You’re literally on vacation and you’re going to get angry. About a stroller being parked at an amusement park. And yell at someone whose position has been doing the same thing for fifty years straight
Why is this article not addressing the stroller issue instead of going off on all the things Disney has done so far? To be quite honest I hated that stage of dealing with a stroller but would always fold it up on transportation. Disney should just say no more strollers and make everyone who needs o e rent it. Revenue stream and problem solved.
That would create a couple of new issues: (1) A huge bottleneck at the front of the park for stroller rental and (2) A huge headache for parents with exhausted kids when they have to leave the stroller at the park. I haven’t had stroller-aged kids for a while, but I remember the end-of-day walk to the bus terminal, long wait for a bus, walk from the bus to the hotel room, etc., being difficult even with the kids tucked into strollers. Having to check the stroller back in at the park gate instead of taking it all the way back to the hotel would be a nightmare!
The Karens with strollers are the worst! You can look at her and tell she is the type to run down everyone in her way. Then has the audacity to act like it is every guest in the park’s fault. They are also the ones complaining that they have to wait in line behind adults with no children, while their children are crying for a pretzel. Teach your little brat some manners, and what waiting your turn means. For some reason, they think everything revolves around them, and rules don’t apply to them either. I despise people like this. And society actually caters to them! The CM’s definitely don’t get paid enough to deal with the entitled, ignorant, classless POS’ in today’s society, that are always yelling about something. She should have immediately been ejected from the parks. I’ve noticed among the many atrocities that Bob Paycheck has put into motion, abusive guests are not being ejected from the park unless it is on a serious crime level. They are too worried about getting their $100 a person for one family of 4 (out of tens of thousands of families attending the park that day), than protecting and supporting their employees. That is just disgusting. Look at all of the recent attacks on the characters as well, and the idiots weren’t ejected. I would NEVER work at Disney in life.
The simple little fold over strollers for babies is one thing, but these damn double wide mobile storage units on wheels are getting out of control. Keep all your food and crap in the car or hotel room. And if you get on a bus, don’t complain when you have to fold the monstrosity and have to actually handle your own 5-8 year olds when they are tired from being in the park for 10 hours “to get your money worth”.
Here’s another thought, from a parent of 3 and grandfather of 11. How about not having strollers. We took our 5-year old granddaughter around 21 years ago. She walked the entire time. I’ve rarely taken a child/grandchild under that age of 10. From what I’ve seen, the kids get so tired early on, no one enjoys the day. I always advise waiting until a child is around 10 (or earlier if they are able) before going. Just a thought…
Regardless, the woman acted poorly at best.
When my hubby and I took the girls (ages 2 & 3) over 20 yrs ago, we rented the Disney stoller (for two) put a blanket in it while they rode around/fell asleep. I think I remember the stroller parking were close to the rides. Of course, it wasn’t as crowded as it is now.

Yeeeaaahhh but thinking of something that simple requires a tiny bit of planning and brains and that’s just way too much for the majority to handle
If they could think straight like that, they wouldn’t freak out over stuff like this to begin with
Knowmore Karens
Karen should have been kicked out for the day.
SG
Totally agree!
And neither are wearing masks, yelling at each other….
Bee
Uhm. Aren’t they outdoors…? Why do you even bring that up
H
SG wears them driving alone , and in the shower…pay them no attention
Todd
Another antimasker “sigh” do you see the bazillion other people all wearing masks? Covid still spreads outdoors.
Jarvis
SG, This mask obsession with you is really sick. Please stay home. You are the Karen.
Sue

walt
Greedy selfish entitled scumbags all of you!
Joy
You win the Internet today!! Perfect answer from the man!
Karen Needs to be banned
Kick her out the parks!
Lauren
I understand they need to put strollers in their designated places but I was just there and the areas to park aren’t always clearly marked.
Bee
Use your words, like we tell the toddlers lol.
There are CMs all over the place ask where to park the stroller. You’re expending way more energy parking it in the wrong place and going around angrily looking for it

Disney’s gonna have to charge quadruple the admission fees to keep the riff raff out.

From the video, the woman was acting bad.
I feel sorry for WDW employees to have to put up with trash like that.

Sounds like a creative and loving Mom. Sadly, WDW has greatly changed, and not for the better.
God Bless to you and your family…
