    Default Characters getting teased?

    Has anyone ever visited Disney one time and witnessed the unfortunate event of a character getting teased by less respectful guests? Like some of the male characters who wear tights/stockings, has anyone ever saw any of them get picked on for that? It probably wouldn't be AS bad if the guests were more playful with it and joked about a character's weakness, like Captain Hook and his fear of a certain "tick-tock", but we as guests and lovers of the magic still have to be respectful to the characters and accept them for who they are.

    I've never seen this from a guest, people seem to play nice from what I've seen.

    On a slightly related topic at a character breakfast at Donald's Restrauntasaurus in 1998 (I was 8) we did once see Goofy sneak up behind Pluto and tie a knot in his tail! That was really funny.

    Later that breakfast Mickey tried to throw me out the fire exit because of an incident with the Mickey Mouse Pancakes... luckily Donald Duck came to the rescue and pushed Mickey out. We've all made up since.

    Sorry these are slightly off topic, I just like telling these stories

    I've never seen any guest be disrespectful toward any character. I'm glad about that.

    "No ham, cheese, and tomato sandwich?"

    Hmm, I take it you watched the old "House of Mouse" cartoons. Very clever reference! I like that there are people who know that one.

    Oh, people are brutal to the characters. My uncle is a Sports Medicine doctor in Orlando. A HUGE percentage of his patients are "characters" at the various theme parks. More specifically, Disney. You wouldn't believe the types of injuries he has seen that were caused by guests...
