Worlds Of Fun Ejects Boy For 'Offensive' Conduct

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- A family's day of roller coaster rides at Worlds of Fun was cut short on Saturday.

Authorities said a 13-year-old boy was seen taking pictures of a woman's breasts, and the boy was asked to leave the park.

The boy's aunt, Kelly Stites, told KMBC it was all a misunderstanding.

"We were there to ride the coasters and we'd only been in the park two hours," Stites said.

On Saturday afternoon, park rangers stopped Stites and her nephew.

"Basically, they said Aaron had taken a picture of a woman behind us in line when she leaned over and exposed herself. We denied the incident; my nephew denied the incident; we said we don't know how that could've happened -- we weren't even looking behind us in line," Stites said. "He said, 'Why would I take a picture with my grandma's camera when I know she's the one that's going to develop and see it."

1. And what about the breasts?

Did they get ejected?

What a ridiculous escapade.

[ulysses]

4. the breasts resisted and were taken into custody as "boobs of interest"

:silly:

[Occulus]

7. That deserves a DUzy award n/t

[ieoeja]

8. We should see the evidence before making any decisions. n/t

[pepperbear]

15. BOOBS OF INTEREST! we have a winner!

:rofl:

[damntexdem]

36. Well, at least he'll have his mammaries of the day.

[Miss Chybil]

ROFLMAO! nt

[SoCalDem]

2. Why not eject the woman who exposed herself to a 13 yr old?

What 13 yr old boy would NOT look :evilgrin:..and he may have raised the camera as a joke, but I doubt that he would actually take the pic, if it was Grandma's camera.

That kid's gonna be a hero when school starts up again :)

[proud2BlibKansan]

9. I want to know if they looked at the camera

Don't most people use digital cameras and couldn't they have looked at what pictures the kid had taken?

[jaysunb]

14. Maybe digital hasn't reached Kansas yet ???

:shrug: I mean with folks like Brownback and Roberts running things out there, maybe they are still depending on the old "intelligently designed" models......

[proud2BlibKansan]

28. I live in Kansas and I resent that insult

And BTW, this park is in MISSOURI. Way to read!!

[jaysunb]

49. Sorry....just trying to put some humor on it.

about the camera that is....

:pals: ??

[proud2BlibKansan]

53. It just gets old

all this Kansas bashing.

[damntexdem]

37. Actually, that theme park is in Missouri.

So it might have been a digital camera, after all.

[proud2BlibKansan]

48. Well gee do I have to give my digital camera back

since I live in Kansas? :shrug:

[BlackVelvet04]

23. It was film..........

Why would I take a picture with my grandma's camera when I know she's the one that's going to develop and see it."

[Wiley50]

17. just a "Wardrode Malfunction" nothing to see here, move Along n/t

[BOSSHOG]

3. Thank God

ya don't get asked to leave bourbon street for taking pictures of nekkid boobies. The place would be deserted.

[marmar]

5. Amurka can be sublimely ridiculous sometimes....

:)

[truebrit71]

6. Develop the film and look at the pictures...

No boobies? ...big lawsuit....Boobies...Case closed...

[proud2BlibKansan]

11. Well by now they could have deleted the picture

if it is a digital camera.

[dysfunctional press]

16. since the kid used the word "develop" i'd tend to assume it's a film camera.

lots of grandmas still use them.

[proud2BlibKansan]

56. Good point

But my sister takes her digital camera to Walgreens and has them 'develop' her pictures for her.

[MindPilot]

57. And he's just seen boobies -- "develop" is a word that would be

in my mind too.

[marions ghost]

10. indecent exposure

works both ways doesn't it?

[damntexdem]

39. And with a film camera, one could get indecent overexposure.

[marions ghost]

45. yeah

I'm sure these are some high-quality photos....
:rofl:

[BlooInBloo]

12. ROFLMAO!!! Asking a 13 yo boy to not be all about boobies is like....

... christ - I don't think words exist to properly capture the idea intended by the analogy.

:rofl:


(Obviously I'm speaking of straight boys here.)


EDIT: But hopefully he's learned his lesson, and won't do any more "upskirts".

[Madspirit]

13. Another Wacky Buffy quote

Cordelia: Does looking at all these guns really make you think about sex?

Xander: I'm a 17 year old boy. Linoleum makes me think about sex.

[BlooInBloo]

26. Bam.

[Forkboy]

29. I got news for ya,that still applies at 39.

:yoiks:

[BlooInBloo]

32. Phew! No major life-changes down the road for me then! Thanks!

[dysfunctional press]

20. sounds like it was a 'downskirt'...or 'downblouse' to be more precise.

IF it even happened.

also- a 13 year-old who hangs out at the amusement park with his granny may not necessarily be all about boobies...just yet.

[BlooInBloo]

25. Yah, but the term "upskirt" is entrenched.

[endarkenment]

18. Can we all admit that we, collectively, as a nation

Are Batshit Crazy?

[dysfunctional press]

21. i'd rather admit that EVERYONE ELSE, collectively as a nation is batshit crazy.

don't drag me into this.

[endarkenment]

27. fair enuff nt

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

33. Meh.

Kicking somebody out of a park for taking "upskirts" shots doesn't seem terribly inappropriate to me.

I think you can get in legal trouble over that sort of thing.

Not that I blame the kid for it, that's just hormones. But it's not like they through him in the stockades.

[Swamp Rat]

19. LOLOLOL!!!!! This is what makes the newspaper in Kansas City???

What a joke! :rofl:

[proud2BlibKansan]

30. Actually this was on the evening news

The newspaper posted it on their blog, but not in the paper. So even they knew what a stupid story it is.

Of course, the TV news here is as shitty as anywhere else.

[mmonk]

22. There were these two boobs at World's of Fun Amusement park

when someone took their picture and...

[damntexdem]

43. No, the two boobs thought someone took a picture ...

and threw him out of the park.

[mmonk]

59. So those boobs were mistaken.

Were they doing something they weren't supposed to?

[guitar man]

24. lol

bookmarking for future reference, I want to stay abreast of the situation :silly:

[ulysses]

31. you're easily titillated.

[guitar man]

47. yes I am

and I can be a real boob when I'm in such a state :D

[ulysses]

55. you should nip on over here

and we'll relive our adolescence together. :D

[DBoon]

34. Does the boy's picture look like this?

[Fire Walk With Me]

35. "Worlds of Fun" means different things to different people.

Boobies aren't indecent; taking pictures of them is.

[SayWhatYo]

38. Why would people defend this sexist action by the boy?

:hide:

[walldude]

42. Because he's 13 and can't control his hormones?

He's just a kid, this is so blown out of proportion it's not even funny.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

46. blown out of proportion?

Is kicking somebody out of an amusement park really blowing much of anything out of proportion?

[BlooInBloo]

50. Clearly you haven't seen the woman's boobies. Talk about blown out of proportion! :)

[damntexdem]

44. The issue is whether he was actually guilty.

[Madspirit]

51. Feminist and Lesbian here

Ummm....we're talking about a KID and an ADULT showing her breasts. Let's see...who to blame...

Maybe not either. Maybe something is extremely wrong with our culture that this made the news.

...and hey, how about innocent until proven otherwise. He claims he would not do that with his grandmother's camera. Who knows but still....KID...ADULT.
Lee

[SayWhatYo]

58. I was just playing, actually.

I agree that this shouldn't even be news...

[proud2BlibKansan]

54. He denied doing anything

I'd like to know if he really took the picture before I condemn him for being a sexist pig.

[TahitiNut]

40. I hope his aunt took him to Hooters for lunch to make up for the disappointment.

:shrug:

[Jed Dilligan]

41. Worlds of Fun can throw out whomever they want,

but isn't it the woman's job not to bust 'em out, so to speak?

[tammywammy]

52. Indeed, they can

I hope that the woman was also thrown out as well.

I worked at Six Flags in customer service and saw many people either kicked out or denied entry.
