Re: Any MBer's win a big dream?

there is a whole thread on it- I think being the grand marshall counts as a big dream.... that would be us...

Re: Any MBer's win a big dream?

Yeah! We've had several grand marshalls, two members who got to sleep in the castle, members who've gotten picked for VIP show seating, etc...

Look in the YoaMDs forum & see what you can find!

I personally think ANY dream is a big dream We got YoaMD lanyards & pins when the Dream Team members walked by us at EPCOT, & last June in Disneyland someone came to our table at Ariel's Grotto & told me that Tinkerbell had sprinkled her pixie dust into a bag for me & told me to look in the bag. It was a complete photo package with the photos we took with Ariel that we declined to buy when our server showed us.

Don't feel bad. In my three trips, I actually managed to see a couple of "Dream Team" cms.

I guess I didn't look "Disney" enough. No lanyard with 45 pounds of pins, no ear hat.

Of course, I had the DVC hat! Guess they figure they've got me already.

i am sure that in our case it was the 6ft7 tall thin guy with the big groom ears top hat kissing his wife in matching white disney tee shirts that made us stick out....

Nope! We've been 7 times . . . and the only things we received are cards that say "magical moment" and the pins DD4 got on the last trip!

We don't go on the BIG rides (RnRc TOT SM) those seem to be the places most people win!

Re: Any MBer's win a big dream?

I agree with whomever said any wish/dream is a big one. I also didn't see many people wearing ears or lanyards, I went on the big rides too. But, when I was there last August, I was made 'table of the day' at Coral reef. I thought my server was kidding at first but I got these little fish toys (really cute).

Then later in the week I had CM give me a fast pass for EE after I decided the wait was too long for the standby and single rider lines. It wasn't anything official but getting to walk practically right on the ride made it feel pretty darn good.

So overall, I didn't get any big dreams but I definitely experienced some pixie dust sprinkling my way.

We got VIP seating at Beauty and the Beast when we were on our honeymoon! It wasn't a huge dream but it was awesome and satisfied my need for a dream!

Re: Any MBer's win a big dream?

we were the dream family at lights motor action - got to start the show and had vip seating (got a certificate too).

not an "official dream", but a dream come true for us - we got to play ring around the rosie with Cinderella, Belle and Aurora and then get a picture with all 3 together.

we got the pins on the cards at downtown disney - not sure if those are dreams, or just a special promo thingy. girls were thrilled though.

My total count is the same as you. During the dream years, 1 trip in Oct 06, 2 trips last yr and 2 for this year, so I'm still hoping too.
