Of course you need an ID to buy the tickets, but what about once you get to the gate? Would they say no? Last year we went and one member of our group inadvertently got a SoCal 2 park hopper ticket (he didn't ask for it and didn't realize it until later). He had no issues getting in either time. Any info would be helpful.

Originally Posted By LuLu Well, scratch what I said. Tho the website does say you can buy 8 tickets per ID, it also says proof of residency required for admission. I'd give 'em a call. I still think the resident can bring guests with these. Why else would you buy 8 per ID?
Originally Posted By haiderodes Thanks, that's what I wanted to hear. Yes our friends will be buying the tickets for us. I just wanted to make sure they wouldn't be like "oh no, we need 40 bucks" when we got to the turnstile. Not that they would, but its just my paranoid side coming out. As for the offer, I worded that a bit incorrectly. Its the 2 day park hopper ticket we are looking to get. Last time we bought 1 day park hoppers at the full price, but one of our friends recieved a 2 day park hopper as the SoCal price is the same as the full 1 day hopper price. Perhaps the ticketing castmember was being a little extra friendly?
