Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

[ddoll]

Did I mention that Timon, Geri and I got picked to sit in the Fastest Finger seats at this show? Not a big deal for ordinary people, but we got quite a kick out of it.

We were walking into the queue area when Timon did his adorable walk over the turnstile, through his legs. We all giggled about it...how if he was one inch shorter he'd have to sing soprano...when we caught the attention of the CM's manning the entrance.

They came over to us and asked if they could please speak to us privately. We thought we were in trouble for "un-Disneylike behavior" for sure. But when she pulled us over, she handed each of us one of these:

It's a pass to allow us to sit in the Fastest Finger seats! Being the Disney-dweebs that we are, we were thrilled! Yes, we thought we were pretty cool sitting there. So much so, that we asked a CM to take our picture for proof!

No, we didn't make it to the hot seat, but we were the kings of hot-stuff for that whole session!!

Cool Debi!!!!

[Bookwood]

That sounds like a great time!- Wish I had known you were going!

[Robin]

Sounds like fun!

[AliciaG]

That is so cool! :D

I didn't know Timon had such ummm... talents. :lol:

[Rosebud]

I'm trying to picture the Timon thing walking over the turnstiles. Didn't think he was that tall.

Now as far as being Disney Dweebs, well that is okay, and probably better than being WWTBAMPI Dweebs. When you are WWTBAMPI Dweebs you actually turn down those seats because you don't think it will be as easy to push the buttons. We did actually say yes once and discovered it wasn't as hard as we thought it would be.

[Timon]

Well there really isn't a turnstile. It's that thing that the turnstile is attached to so that there are two aisles for people to pass through. It's also padded. When I played this earlier that day with other members I was so busy chatting that I inadvertantly did it. Later that day when I went with ddoll and Geri I was showing them what I did, which may have gotten us noticed by the CM, but I think it was the birthday button that Geri was wearing that got us into the fasted finger seats. It was cool sitting there. We were all that and a bag of chips.

Hey that's really cool...Holy cow.. I think i need to hang out with ddoll... she gets in the millionaire seats, has reporters following her around... I don't want to miss what's next... :lol:

[Frogman]

She sings great too! :D

Assuming you win the hot seat and would happen to answer all the questions right and win "the million" what would you actually get?

[Ursulinda]

7 day cruise for 2!

[BriarRose]

when we went in Sept they made a big point of saying 3 day cruise but when we went at MFest they didn't say that.

Deb, you are always "hot stuff" to me...lol.

That must have been so much fun. And thanks for the photos. Y'all look great.

Sincerely, Ray :)

She sings great too! :D

15 pins
1 pin lanyard
1 cap
1 shirt
1 leather jacket
and a 3 day cruise for 4 people, I think it includes the airfare also, but can't remember.

I have 25 pins, 3 lanyards, 3 caps, and 2 shirts. Rats, I just can't get to that #15!

[Rosebud]

when we went in Sept they made a big point of saying 3 day cruise but when we went at MFest they didn't say that.
BetsyAnn's trip report for MF says that she saw someone win the cruise. Maybe when you saw the show they just forgot to say Cruise?

I still have a problem getting over the fact that I lost on the Million Point question, but then it was only a trip to NY to see the filming on the original night time Millionaire show. If I had lost the cruise, I would be crying - still!

[LisaG]

Was anyone still around on the 11th? I made the hot seat at the first show of the day and got to the 250,000 point question. Alas I still haven't won that cruise.

Kathleena, I thought I was the only one collecting - I have 30 pins, 3 hats (all of which are different), and 3 shirts ( 2 grey and 1 black - black one I won in DL).

I've made it as far as the 500,000 question.
