Some guest walked past me and was like "Where is the bathroom." and I just chided at them "They provide maps for free...." God guest can be so stupid sometimes.

Seriously guys some of these quotes aren't nearly as stupid as you're making them out. Not everyone knows the differences between dinosaurs, people will continue to call Wizarding World "Harry Potter World" (as I probably will too considering it's shorter), Rock N Rollercoaster and RockIt DO have similar names so yes people will get them confused. Some of these are funny and some of these are a bit much guys.

That sounds like a childish mistake. Like literally, a childish mistake that only a child would make. Are you seriously calling out kids for not knowing that the hell a Pita-saurus is? I bet they're mighty delicious.

You all gotta remember, what one person may consider a stupid quote, someone else will consider it just a mistake.

Stupid quotes include:

Guest at Disney asking a CM where Potter is
Guest at UO asking a TM where Mickey is
Guest saying random stupid stuff ....example - Ice cream is too cold (happenned on a cruise ship), Stitch was scary, you know dumb stuff

Non -stupid quote:
Lost people trying to find something
Confusion on what something is or not is

Some people just don't pay attention, they are there to ride the ride, not learn about dinos

For example, I just came back from Europe, me and my wife took a few tours and all of them had audio telling you about everything around you, she didn't pay attention at all and was clueless when I mentioned a fun fact they said.

Yea it's kinda simple, but whether you choose to believe it or not many people don't know/care/want to learn about dinosaurs.

Yeap, but just like the gorillas in the zoo, its always best to observe and not disturb them :lol: (the stupid people that is)

Put it this way, if you hadn't said anything, maybe they call the TRex a pteradactyl :lol:

There is no such thing. There are tons of people who could care less about the names of dinosaurs. Just because they have seen them before, doesn't mean they know what they are.

Triceratops, sure. Raptor, not so much. If no one watched Jurassic Park, they'd have no idea what a Raptor probably looked like.

I'm pretty sure if you held up a picture of an Allosaurus to the common guest, they would guess it was a T-Rex. Just because it's common knowledge to you, doesn't mean it's common knowledge to all. It would be safe to assume that most people could care less about dinosaurs, they just want them to look cool and terrify you.

I agree with Jake though, a lot of these quotes have been very nitpicky. We know most of the theme park ins and outs because we are part of an online theme park community. Not many people spend their free time catching up on all the latest news and rumors. When sharing quotes, just take a step outside of the box and try to see if the story you sharing is really "stupid" or just a person with little "in the know" knowledge.

For example, a father is walking with his daughter past the Mexico pavilion in Epcot. Father asks daughter, "Do you know what language they speak in Mexico?". Little girl nods her head, no. Father responds "They speak Mexican."

You seriously underestimate the popularity of Dinosaurs then T.Rex,Raptor,Triceratops,Stegosaurus,Pterodactyl,Brontosaurus etc are household names even if they are wrong.

You seriously are overestimating the popularity of dinosaurs. As Jts said, they probably know the name, but probably don't know their appearance.
