OK, who gets choked up at the parades???

**Boost** · 11-27-2009, 07:30 PM

Is it just me or are there other people out there who get just a bit emotional during the parades? You have your family with you, perhaps your youngest on your shoulders, that great Disney music, a princess waves at your little girl or a pirate says "arrr!" to your son....and let's just say that it's good to have sunglasses on at that point.....

Am I alone in this experience?

You are not alone! I'm 25 (almost 26) and I get choked up at the parades! My first day is usually the hardest on the emotions. To top it off, I don't have kids! I am the kid!

Heck, I get teary-eyed during the Christmas Day parade on TV! That is pretty sad!

I'm glad it's not just me! I swear, my husband thinks I'm crazy. I get choked up at the parades, fireworks, everything! We were at my daughter's Daisy Girl Scout ceremony and I got a choked up when they said the pledge. Disney does it to me everytime!

Guilty!

Especially the fireworks, gets me every time!

The daytime parades, not so much, but Spectromagic, that's another story. I lose it when the music starts. So many memories.

Wishes always gets me...and for some reason so does Dream Along With Mickey and I don't know why.

**megustamex** · 11-28-2009, 12:37 AM

Absolutely! Ditto on Dream Along with Mickey (at the end) and Wishes, even the daily parade...phew I thought I was the only one wiping that "dust" out of my eyes under my sunglasses...

**DisneyFanaticDargon** · 11-28-2009, 12:38 PM

The former Disney Dreams Come True Parade used to get me, but the current one not so much.

**Gator** · 11-28-2009, 12:53 PM

I haven't cried. But my DD did when a family crowded around us and in front of us along the ropes in Frontierland.

**villavic** · 11-28-2009, 04:33 PM

Not only parades
when you wish upon a Star... That songs touches me a lot every time i listen it at Parks and shows

**Kathy Jetson** · 11-28-2009, 04:58 PM

I did when Cinderella and Alice blew ds a kiss and yelled happy birthday.

**Mousemates** · 11-28-2009, 05:06 PM

Parades never...but my wife still cries during wishes.

Totally agree with this comment!!!

**fanofdisney** · 11-29-2009, 08:39 AM

I cry every time too! I am so relieved to hear this happens to others as well

Another reason I love this site

I cry at the other shows too, fireworks and shows, they are just so magical. How about the parade that used to be at Epcot, I can't think of the name of it right now but I really miss that one, I cried for that too!

only at MK...childhood emotions brought back

**Hull-onian** · 11-29-2009, 03:50 PM

Count me in!!! Especially during Illuminations!!

**Goes4FastPass** · 12-01-2009, 01:18 PM

For me it's SpectroMagic reflected in the eyes of the children I'm with.

**1goofyfamily** · 12-01-2009, 03:48 PM

My wife is always moved by the fireworks and parades especially the 1st and last nights....I'm sure I will be next week when I see the look on my little princess's face during the parades.

**Tinksalot** · 12-01-2009, 03:54 PM

I have to admit I get all choked up at Spectromagic and of course the fireworks over the castle.

**Loweschevy** · 12-02-2009, 09:10 AM

The parades and opening ceremonies choke me up! Tears of joy
