Hi, Jordo! Electron's (hi, Electron!) example of pizza boxes is right on the money....
If you insist on the somewhat sloppy equating of entropy with "disorder" - it isn't that easy - another good example is to think of putting a baby elephant in a huge, sealed container and raising him to adulthood there. Yeah, the elephant will grow to be "more ordered," but think about the disorder he'll bring to his surroundings!
