However the next day we were on our last day at WDW and went to MK we realised it was MNSSHP and went to see if we were able to get tickets for that night. We had just become DVC members and we were wondering if we would get a discount, the lovely CM gave us 2 complimentary tickets and congratulated us on becoming members. We were so shocked and thoroughly enjoyed the night. Has anyone else had any Dream Wishes?

Originally Posted By Labuda Very nice, deephil! Like Ken, I saw 0 dream team members, but I saw a boatload of the dream fast passes on folks in each park each day. But, congrats on joining DVC - I hope you two have a blast with it, and kudos on the free MNSSHP tix!

You know, I actually agree with this. I think that the promotion might end up making some guests feel worse off than if it weren't happening in the first place. I don't have children, but it seems like it would be tough to explain to a kid why he/she was the cutoff for receiving a prize or something. I know, everyone needs to understand that life isn't fair, but it just seems like 'almost' receiving a dream could put a damper on the happy Disney moood.

Most people aren't even going to get the most basic freebie (a Fastpass). <<I did not see any dream team members, I was just surprised I got popcorn!>> The Spirit loves his food, but he has never dreamed about popcorn and I doubt he ever will.

Shouldn't everyone be eligible once they walk through the gates or am I missing something? Chelledun Like you stated try to explain to a child why they were the cutoff. I understand life is not fair but to me that is not fair at all.

Although I am not sure that they would have any way of knowing - at least for the small ones. The major one I assume that you would have to sign a release and in there would be some sort of statement to effect that you meet the eligibility requirements.
