Jim Gaffigan's Side-Splitting Take On Visiting Disney As An Adult
Jim Gaffigan gives his side-splitting take on visiting Disney as an adult, and he makes it sound more miserable than magical!
The Disney experience in Orlando consists of four parks: Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Magic Kingdom is said to be “The Most Magical Place on Earth.” For kids and kids at heart, a pilgrimage to one or more of the Disney parks is a dream come true—an enviable vacation, for sure!
Jim Gaffigan, however, doesn’t see it that way. In his down-on-Disney comedy routine, Mr. Gaffigan compares a day at Disney to one spent at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Clearly, he knows that every licensed driver in the United States will relate to the analogy. Long lines, wasted time, too much closeness, and grumpy moods come with both.
The comedian continues by describing the heat of a July day in Orlando, saying that it’s like standing on the sun's surface!
He recalls being a kid and wondering why his dad was “always in a bad mood” while on vacation. With raised brows and a knowing look, he now understands. He jokes that Disney is just the place for fathers wishing to spend an insane amount of money, desiring to be incredibly uncomfortable, and hoping to hear their youngin’s whine and complain!
Known for his jokes about laziness, fatherhood, religion, and food, he goes on to say that Disney may be the only place where visitors can walk for 12 hours, sweating incessantly, and still gain weight. The fries get the guests every time!
Born in Elgin, Illinois, the 57-year-old “clean” comic has five children, and he’s probably made a few trips to Disney. Nominated for seven Grammy Awards, Mr. Gaffigan makes hilarious observations on daily life. And he is right. Disney is not a relaxing vacation for us moms and dads, but we’re betting that, like parents everywhere, he’s felt blessed to be able to make the trip.
“As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;” Psalm 103:13
