Victoria & Alberts rumor

jwdj4lfe · 04-25-2003

Hey everybody!
I wasn't really sure whether to post this here, or in the rumors forum, but I think this is an interesting piece of trivia, and if it's true it can give those with PS's to V & A's a heads up. I've heard in the past that all the waiters and waitresses at V & A's are named either Victoria or Albert, is this true? That would be so cool! Just wondering!

:whistle:

They're all named Victoria and Albert,just like you're always Simba One at Kilimanjaro Safaris.

Thanks guys! Only at Disney World could you do something like that! I got really confused becuase just yesterday my mom was on the phone with disney making an additional reservation to Spoodles (like mickey suggested...it's a back up if the ESPN club has to long of a wait) and she asked the guy about V & A's and he said that that wasn't true! My mom didn't want to argue with the CM, so she just said "o, ok thats just something I heard." lol.
Thanks Joann! I'm going out to the arts and crafts store today to get a poster board for a project, so i'll check out their ribbons! Since our plans changed from the BB, we still aren't sure what park will be going to. We might take the Keys to the Kingdom tour and spend the rest of the day in the MK. So if your gonna be at the magic Kingdom on may 10th, look out for me and my mom wearing our blue ribbons!

I know I heard that somewhere about the V&A names, but I can't remember if it was Samantha Brown on the Travel Channel, or some other Disney reference. But I KNOW I heard that somewhere. Those CMs on the phone don't always have all the answers...I've had a couple of them ask ME about the Backyard BBQ because they don't really know anything about it, & I had someone the other day tell me the ONLY restaurants I couldn't make PSs for until 60 days out were the MK ones. NOT!!!!! Oh well, just goes to show you have to do your own research!!!

They mention the Victoria and Albert thing in the Birnbaum guides... perhaps you read it there?

It seems to me I saw it on TV...it might have been the Disney DVD? Don't know, can't remember...old age kicking in, you know! The only place I know I won't feel old anymore is WDW!!!!

Floridabound · 05-04-2003

Of course they aren't really named Victoria and Albert. How many good servers could they find with those names?...lol!;)

But yes, last I heard, all of the name tags do say Victoria or Albert.
