I did my College Program in the Magic Kingdom parking lot. My "favorite" day was New Years Eve 2004. They had closed the park to capacity and were sending people back around to the main road so they could enjoy one of the other parks for the day. I was stationed with about five other CM's blocking the road into the actual parking lot. Traffic wasn't allowed to stop, we were just supposed to wave people through and encourage those that stopped to move along. Fortunately, the manager for the TTC had the foresight to arrange for an Orange County Deputy to be out there with us. There were two particularly uncooperative guests that day.
The first was a lady that insisted that she and her kids needed to be at the Magic Kingdom. She stopped in front of the cones and wouldn't move. We asked her to leave and she refused. The officer asked her to leave and she said, "We're going to the Magic Kingdom!" She even went so far as to get out of the car, open the sliding door of her mini van and tell the kids to get out, and then opened the back and activated the lift gate for her
scooter. The officer then informed her that he would be happy to help her leave if she didn't pack up and be on her way. She wasn't happy about it, but she finally left. Not sure if she realized how far that walk would have been. We were all the way where the Richard Petty track met the road. So at least a mile to the TTC if I had to guess. But it's been awhile, so maybe I'm over estimating. But I do remember thinking that she would be even more mad about how far she would have to drive her scooter to get on the monorail.
The second was a mom in a convertible with two kids. She insisted that she was going to the park and no one was going to stop her. We asked her to leave, reminded her that she was blocking traffic (which was very heavy), informed her of the park being at capacity, told her that they wouldn't let her in the gates, everything. She didn't care. She was going and we were going to let her. She was down right mean and nasty to us and kept yelling for us to move the cones so she could park her blankety blank car. The kids looked liked they just wanted to be anywhere but there. She even argued with the Deputy. Finally, he had had enough and said, "Ma'am, you've got two choices. You can either drive away and enjoy the rest of your day elsewhere, or I can haul you out of your car, arrest you in front of your kids, call child services to pick them up, and embarrass the h*** out of you. It doesn't really matter to me." She finally chose the first option (well, not sure she enjoyed her day, but she did drive away). We loved having that officer work with us that day. He didn't have to use the filter we did. And obviously had a lot more authority.
