Honestly, I think that he was playfully smacking him and he almost tripped and Tigger tried to save him. The dad and the kid kind of over reacted over it, and it was just too stupid. Although, I wouldn't admit that I was hit by Tigger, I have too much pride to say "I just got hit by a guy wearing a Tigger outfit" I mean, it's Tigger.

If not right below Peter Pan. Think about it, your manhood and your masculinity go right out the window when you get hit by Tigger.

Funny thought there Daniel, funny thought!

My brother was afraid of Tigger for a while. Our first trip to WDW was in 1999 and Tigger was one of the first characters we encountered. Well I guess there's a piece of metal in Tigger's tail to keep it from being floppy. When my brother was done taking his picture with him, Tigger turned around and about knocked my brother flat on his behind. I thought it was hilarious, but I think it scarred him a little.

Aww I thought he was going to turn into Tigger-Hulk.
Your story disappointed me.
In that case: *ahem*

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...


But then, as the girl stood and smiled at the now pain-stricken Tigger, the skies above began to swirl and swish, turning a most darkened color of violet and blood red. A hiss and a growl was heard as Tigger, whose normally cheerful personaltiy began to scowl from beneath his brow-seams, began to twitch and shirk.

Nay, should I have stayed I, too, could have become engulfed in the rampage that was about to be--instead, I ran. I ran to the castle and climbed high into its turrets from which I watched as Tigger grew, slowly at first, but the anger was too deep; the arm obviously popped back into joint as the orange became yellow, brown, and then green. Oh, a horrible day fell on Disney World as the now 50 foot giant Tigger threw his chest out and bellowed forth a tremendous roar not unlike that which you'd hear from the T-rex; and his gnarly fangs which fell forth from his face dripped and slobbered like fallen rain.

And he looked at this assailant, the once simple girl turned shoulder-of-Tigger-killer, now the prey. She turned to run away, but was no match in speed as Tigger glided along on the bounce of his monstrous green Tigger-tail, and got ahead of her. Before she could turn to run another direction, the great green padded palm of our beloved character swept forth, swiped the girl from the ground, and she was gone in one gulp!

He sat and flicked her friends away with his tail, some were found in the swamplands of Florida, others in Universal Studios or Busch Gardens. Slowly, he began to deflate his anger and soon he had returned to the loveable Tigger we all know and adore, no recollection of the events as they just unfolded, and I (now finding other spectators and Disney characters had fled there with me) began to climb down to the safety of the streets.

I did meet up with Tigger again that day, but there was something different about his demeanor, something different about his visage--and he did smell of girl's perfume.

The end

(Better?)

You're either really tall or have low ceilings. Or, I'm too fat to jump that high.

Maybe yor protective head-sheen reflects the ceiling away?
