But here we go again another bogus "celebration" with a bunch of add-on things that will cost you extra money and some not exactly unique entertainment. Yeah, that will keep guests at WDW while SeaWorld and Universal open major additions. When will all these lame promotions finally backfire on Disney. I bet this one will go over in Anaheim about as well as YOMD did. Next year is going to be interesting now that the bottom has dropped out of the economy.

Originally Posted By Schmitty Good Vibes I think it's great, and sure to be a money maker for Disney. But I do have a gripe (what else are these boards for?) The page says this is good for both WDW and DL, but when you click on their link for alternates to admission for passholders, it's like DL doesn't even exist. Rats.
Originally Posted By Schmitty Good Vibes I don't think I'll get to take advantage of this, but I checked and my birthday ia a Saturday in July. Ugh. I'll take the Fastpasses, please.

Originally Posted By MinnieSummer My cousin has triplets and was planning on bringing them down next year for their birthday. If the timing is right and they are actually there for their birthday this will be great. One less day they have to purchase on their tickets. Ironically, their mothers birthday is the day after theirs so they could save plenty.

It's supposed to have a bunch of different Disney execs from around the world, so I don't know if it's related. I heard that it might be related to the studio, but nobody I've talked to really knows much about that.

You know OUR BIRTHDAYS are 2 weeks apart!! This might work out!! Maybe not so lame)
