Before the CM chose us, he asked where we were from and seemed to be pleased we weren't locals. So, maybe tell them to lie if they're from Anaheim! I don't know if they look for specific group sizes or kids' ages, but we were a group of 7 with four kids between the ages of 4-10. If they're first in line and see a CM scanning the lines, maybe they can just ask if they can do it? Hope the info. helps!

The funny thing was that my DH picked the hat because he liked the steer symbol on it (Texas), not because he is into sports at all and we are not from Texas! It was such a special moment to be chosen, we will never forget it! I don't know if there is any way to try to get "picked". It seems very random, kind of like winning the lottery!
