Once we were squeezed 3 people in one car on big thunder and one of my friends was halfway sitting on another's lap. It was so dangerous. She could stand up during the ride
And I agree with everyone else's comment about the new PotC boats...they've really turned it into a water ride! If you're in the front or back, you're likely to get drenched!
We are here now and haven't had an issue. Today was a super-busy holiday Saturday in the MK. On Big Thunder and Haunted Mansion we were seated 2 per row with our extra person in his own row/car and on boat rides they have put the appropriate number of people in each row. We chose to put three in a car on Mermaid, but were not asked to. We are all an average size with a couple of skinny teens in the group so they could try to squeeze us tighter, but they haven't.
Is it just the very first and very last rows? I do not want to get drenched on this ride.
Hope someone knows!
If you're sitting on the outside edge in any of the rows, watch out, too.
We were at WDW at the same time and that happened to us on the GMR too. It seemed odd.I was at Disney from Dec 2-11 and also thought the cast members seemed to be squeezing people on certain rides. The one that really stuck out was The Great Movie Ride where we were squished into the row practically sitting on the laps of strangers. That felt very weird, especially because the wait was only 5 minutes.
old lady said:I was forced to sit with my overweight parents in the middle of a doom buddy. I am not thin either but seriously did it have to break down while I was backwards looking at the raven in graveyard.
No, you were not forced. You got in with them. You could have very easily jumped into the buggy behind theirs by yourself. No castmember is going to force three adults into one buggy...they usually do nothing more other than say "watch your step." Like most instances in this thread, the overcrowding was a result of guest confusion, not ruthless CMs.

Quite a few people in this thread were very clear that CMs told them to crowd in or get off the ride. It's plain that some people did get crowded in by other guests, but that doesn't change what the other people experienced.
I'm sure those who posted such experiences believed they were being told to cram in, but I think they really just misunderstood. Sorry, but I'm just not going to buy that a CM told people they must sit three adults in one BTMRR car (which is dangerous), or three people in one Spaceship Earth car (when it's built for two).
