That's a line kids used to use in grade school when they were trying to start fights: Feelin' froggy? Jump, den!

Go get 'em, Tigger!!
Growrrrr.
I read about that... I'm starting to think people take these jobs just so they can violate children in hopes that since they're in disguise no one will know it's them.

Besides, my dad uses the froggy phrase ALL THE TIME, as he's a real old codger!

Why would you think such an awful thing? I'm sure it happens a fraction of the time but geeze.

I caught that on the news having a drink at a bar yesterday. When I saw the coverage I thought to myself it could very well have been an accidental striking in the face. It didn't seem like a deliberate assault but these days many people are quick to judge and turn anything into a scandal. But whether it's true or not I hope the investigating commitee uncovers the facts and responds appropriately.

I can tell you why Tigger:

I was at Disney World once, and had taken my picture with Tigger. There was a group of girls waiting to take their photos with Tigger, and when I walked away to look at something else they began taking photos. Well, apparently Tigger was headed back inside and one of the girls (late teens, early twenties) grabbed Tigger's arm and pulled it back--STRAIGHT back. If the arm in the costume didn't pop out of joint I will be surprised.

Tigger turned and I heard something groan out of the head, holding that shoulder, and then turn and run inside.

Tigger was better than me. I might have broke character and said something I would normally only say in traffic.

Aww I thought he was going to turn into Tigger-Hulk.

Your story disappointed me.
