No backstage access, no open Attractions (as some have wondered), no real anything but a walk through the empty park. Granted, many LPers and others would enjoy such a walk very much, but I thought it worth noting that all those who imagined something more spectacular imagined it in vain.

"The things that you will hear people being "picked" for are Magical Moments, this is not a Prize from the sweepstakes. Magic Moments can be as simple as being give a free ice cream, to being upgraded at the hotel. These are not official prizes from the YoaMD Sweepstakes, Magic Moments are just CM's offering something special to make your stay more fun!"

Originally Posted By santoanderson I imagine the dream team ties things up early for a couple of reasons.

Aren't there more younger kids out in the park before peak evening hours? I've just never seen as many little kids out late as I do in the mornings. I would guess the Dream Team looks for groups with little kids first, but I've never been dreamed (that's sound dirty, like "slimed"), so I'm speculating big-time.

God bless the Tink Mobile.
