Spaceship Earth a couple of times but the real annoying one was Nemo and Friends. We sat in front of Marlin telling the joke, JELLYFISH! for 20 min. I was soooo sick of that joke after we rode that day. My husband and daughter got stuck in the dropping elevator on TOT and rode it with the lights on. The most uninteresting thing ever they said.

Our family got stuck on Splash Mtn, just before you start your slow ascent to the big drop! I did get tired of the two Buzzards talking 'to' us.
Youngest DD and I got stuck on Tower of Terror just before being loaded into the drop elevator shaft, luckily we had a great group of folks in our car and had a fun time waiting. The lights came on and we were lead to a real elevator to start our journey all over again. We were given the choice of a FP for later or front of the line immediately, we voted for front of the line!

probably 90% of the times ive been on Splash Mountain. Once for almost 15 minutes.
Got stuck on Indiana Jones in Disneyland too. Right where Indy is hanging from a Rope the instant before the boulder comes down crashing.
It seemed like it took hours.

Actually got stuck in Space Mountain in the queue to board the rockets. Someone dropper their hat on the ride and they had to turn all the lights on and walk the track. That was pretty cool to see the inside of the ride with all the lights.

Splash Mountain
Been there, done that and going back!!! See ya real soon !!!

It seems like Splash Mountain is a common one. It's also the one that happened to me, back in 2003. My dad and I went on, and the ride had paused a couple of times but never for very long. Then we got through the big drop, saw the grand finale, and right as we got to Brer Rabbit and Mr. Bluebird singing in front of Brer Rabbit's house the ride stopped. Eventually the music was shut off, so instead of hearing "Zip-a-dee-doo-dah" over and over, we just heard the clicking of the audio-animatronics. We were stopped there for maybe 15 minutes, and some cast members came and got us out of the log. We were almost at the ride exit, so we didn't see too much of the SM backstage area.
It's so weird, isn't it, being backstage and seeing all the ride mechanics - and then suddenly you're back in the park and there's no trace of how you got there or how to get backstage. It's almost eerie - "Where were we? How did we get back here? Where did the door go?"

I have gotten stuck on POTC twice but not in the same visit. Never had to walk off and it wasn't too bad waiting for them to fix the problems. I'm just glad it wasn't an outside ride or one with a steep incline.

My cousin and I were stuk on TTA in a rain storm once. Something got struck by lightening in the park and the ride stopped. We were across from Space Mountain and suddenly it began to pour and the wind picked up. We got soaked and were hysterically laughing. Finally a cast member came, opened the doors and lead a bunch of us along the track and down a flight a stairs and into a shop. We were so wet we had to go back to the resort where it handy rained at all.
My younger cousins were in Disney World for the first time when they were 7 and 6. They all went on Splash Mountain and were stuck near the unloading area for about 30mins. My cousin to this day remembers the spiel. He even recited it to us when they got back. Last summer I rode Splash Mountain with him and his parents and we were stuck in the same spot for a few minutes and my uncle said " not again!" and my cousin, who was 14, showed us that he still remembered it word for word.

I've been stuck on Test Track too many times to count! I got stuck on Splash Mountain with my sister for about 30 minutes once. The only time I've ever had to actually get off a ride that was stuck and walk out of the attraction, though, was on the TTA. We were in the part where the TTA goes inside Space Mountain and the ride just stopped. We sat there for probably 20-30 minutes and then a CM came over the speakers and said everyone had to disembark the cars. We walked through that super dark area and then down a bunch of steps outside, and as we were leaving, CMs were handing out FPs for Space Mountain. It was actually kind of neat to walk around in there!

Same here but we were stuck for probably 5 minutes and it was sunny & hot!!
Also got stuck on Spaceship Earth for about 30 minutes. Apparently someone jumped out of their ride vehicle and they couldn't start the ride until they found the person. Hopefully that person got thrown out of the park!!

In Dec of 2005 I was on TOT and before the compartment goes into the shaft to go up an down and it stopped. It was during Pop Warner and we had some annoying kids saying "oh I'm so scared" jokingly and I said "umm...this really isn't supposed to happen"
A moment later a voice came on saying "please remain seated, etc". Then they turned the lights on!! And a guy came in with a step ladder and we had to climb down and we walk through the ride with the lights on to a real elevator that took us back down to the loading zone and loaded us in a new one.
It was very interesting see ing everything with the lights on. Very different indeed!

We have been stuck numerous times, but we've never had to evacuate a ride on foot.
We've been stuck on Test Track pretty much once per trip, once for about half an hour. My mom called me and I had an entire conversation with her while the ride was stopped.
I've been stuck on Splash Mountain a few times for 5-10 minutes.
Been stuck at the end of Pirates, I think mostly due to bottlenecks..maybe? Each boat that came behind us would slam into us. Not fun.
Stuck on HM, which I don't think was usually stuck but loading/unloading handicapped passengers. one time though, we were stuck tilting backward going into the graveyard, and once we were stuck in the graveyard for 5-10 minutes.
I don't remember which ride it was..maybe Splash mountain, but I do remember being stuck for awhile on an incline and it hurting my neck quite a bit.

Stuck
We've had to walk off Ellen's Energy thing twice - both times right at the end. My sons and one of my daughters got stuck on SE and ended up having to walk down a whole bunch of stairs to get out. I seem to remember being stuck on TTA also, but we were able to wait until it got moving again.

What ride did you get stuck on?
Last October we got stuck on HM. My 7 year old was terrified!!!! Unfortunately he was a few Doom Buggies ahead of us with other family members and there was nothing that I could do at the time to confort him. My DH & I were above the dining room scene for a good half hour.
On the down-side once the lights came on (for quite awhile) it really took the spookiness out of the ride But on a good note, the inside is immaculate (even saw a few dust pans & brooms on the walk out).
The only thing that really bothered me was the CM's needed to come around and manually unlock each Doom-Buggy by hand inorder for us to walk off. It just really made me think if there was a fire how they would be able to get everyone out in a short amount of time????
My DSs were stuck in the attic. DS said that he saw a Jack Skellington book. We rode several times this year...but I was never able to find it.

stuck rides....
I've been on several, the only one that kind of scared me a little (I was a rookie then) was being stuck on the incline on test track and being afraid another car was going to crash into the back of us! It put-putted to a stop, we sat there for about 3 minutes, and then it finally started again and got up to full speed.

BTMRR. Stuck for quite a while and finally escorted off the ride. We had an interesting walk up the tracks, down a ladder and then under the tracks and "mountains." Interesting to see how they are made and all of the paraphanalia scattered behind the scenes.

Last January, stuck for 45 minutes in the burning town of Pirates of the Caribbean. Right near the man sitting with the pigs, across from the pirate wearing several hats on his head. Got some AWESOME photographs!
Then the boats moved ahead a little and we were below the hairy leg pirate, so I got lots of great shots of him as well!
It was creepy though - often the sound would go off, and yet the pirates were still moving and swaying... then a big loud siren would go on, and a terribly LOUD P.A. system voice would come on and tell people to remain calm, etc. I still don't know what the hold-up was but we made the best of the situation!
