Grandma Accused Of Groping Goofy At Walt Disney World

Groping characters at Disney isn't just a drunk middle-aged woman's activity.  Apparently, there are grandmas in their 60s who like to grab a handful of their favorite costume every now and again too.

That's an allegation being made by a Disney employee who allegedly had an encounter with one of these handsy old ladies while in a Goofy costume.  According to a report from the Orange County Sheriff, and reported by WDW News Today, the incident took place back in February.

A 32-year-old male cast member who was dressed as Goofy was taking pictures around 10:30 am on the day in question with a family of four.  The cast member says that three of the family members posed on his right side, while grandma took the spot on his left and put her arm around him.

That's when out of nowhere it happened.  The grandma went for Goofy's butt.  The report says, "The grandmother then placed her right hand on his ‘butt’ and squeezed her hand three times.  During the squeezing the grandmother said, 'Woo hoo!'"

What's the big deal?  It's a grandma having a little fun.  No harm, no foul.  Normally I would agree, but grandma could very well be the kind of visitor who goes a little too hard in the paint while at Disney.

I'm talking about the ones that take a dump while waiting in line if need be to avoid losing their spot.  It's her outfit that gives it away.  Grandma was strolling through the park on that February morning wearing a black Minnie Mouse shirt that read "Nana Mouse."

If you want to wear a Minnie Mouse shirt, fine.  There's nothing wrong with that.  The red flag that you're a possible "takes a dump in line" kind of visitor is the "Nana Mouse" part.

Goofy Wasn't A Fan At All Of Grandma's Boundary Crossing Move

Following the butt squeeze incident, Goofy stopped the meet-and-greet and asked the family to leave.  He then let his attendant know what had gone down.

"The grandmother stated with an attitude ‘What?  I guess he doesn’t want us here,’" according to the report.  "The family then walked off."

The grandma wasn't named and only a description of what she was wearing, including that crazy person's shirt, was provided.  A Disney photographer witnessed the incident and provided a statement to police.

The photographer said, "Goofy stopped the interaction with the family and was asking them to leave," the report said.  The photographer then overheard the family talking after the incident.

The father, who apparently is well aware that grandma oversteps boundaries at times, asked her, "What did you do?"

Grandma reportedly replied, "I didn't do anything.  Goofy wants us to leave now."

There have been no arrests made despite the fact that Goofy told law enforcement that he had his butt squeezed over his costume, and he wants to prosecute the handsy grandmother for battery.

Steer clear of the middle-aged women who might have had too much to drink and the grandma's in Nana Mouse shirts.
