* At the end of ''{{Disney/Aladdin}}'', the Genie becomes one of these after being freed, complete with Goofy cap.
** This was actually a reference to a (sadly no longer shown) short film that played in the guest queue for The Magic of Disney Animation at Walt Disney World's Disney-MGM Studios called "Back To Neverland," where RobinWilliams played a HawaiianShirtedTourist (with the Goofy cap).
* A few of these can be seen in ''LiloAndStitch''.
** Of course, given that it takes place in Hawaii and Lilo's sister works at a tourist trap, that's probably no surprise.
