This is my chance to create my Phil Holmes costume: Depending on who you ask, he's either a hero or villain. Maybe he's a little of both. Perfect! All I need is the robe and the hat. And a big feather. And, I'll be done. TCD BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 I highly doubt I would be able to do this, but a girl can dream, right? So, does anyone know if the one day I have left on my 4-day hopper would work for this? Or is there a special ticket needed for an event like this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

devores 382 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 99% chance Ill be working it, which is good because CMs cannot use complimentary tickets to get in. Even our IDs are blacked out, DAMN UNIONS. They must have caved in for a kick back or something. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lou... 3,118 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 The eTicket is what I call a hard ticket. It's an actual ticket and is distributed twice a year.It can be printed out and given to anyone without any involvement by a CM. It's not the Main Entrance pass.They are limited and I only use them for special occasions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's not the Main Entrance pass.They are limited and I only use them for special occasions.They are treated like gold by most CMs and only given out for very special reasons. Its not the same as using a maingate to get someone in. The e tickets are never blocked out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 Wow!!! I believe that is the ticket given to me in 2010 by CM on another board that shall not be named so I could bring my youngest with us when we did Give a Day, Get a Day. Rebekah was only 3 then and too young to earn a ticket by volunteering. She e-mailed me the ticket, rather than meeting us at the gate to walk her in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

McMonsters..........Kelly 48 Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Yeah, not so much....I will only plan a trip when crowd levels are at a 5 or below from now on and I'm sure this event will be INSANE. I'll miss it by a week and glad of it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Actually, it wasn't too bad when I went for the first one. Although TJ and myself didn't arrive till 10pm, and had absolutely NO agenda except to watch the silliness, and stroll around. It was a lot of fun! We did get a few attractions in, TJ pointed out some stuff I had not noticed, and we had a Dole Whip at 3am :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
