He was standing right on the edge of the water with his kids behind him, climbing down the rocks onto the water's edge. They had to climb over a few barriers to get to this no mans land. I couldn't beleive it. How bizarre it is to be asked where the bathroom is while on a ride.

Originally Posted By mele LOL, that is definitely bizarre! He couldn't find anyone else to ask? Crazy.

But I cannot imagine why anyone would climb down "under" Splash Mountain looking for a bathroom.

Guy, in a drunken stupor, stumbling around looking for a bathroom. He was about two movements away from yet ANOTHER thread - something about railings and little boys...? ;-)

Better yet, a way for people not to be able to climb into that area.
