I am getting married and have to settle just visiting DL instead of getting married there. I saw the Popcorn buckets Sparrow! I bought the R2D2 one, so this one will be a good addition to the collection.

Originally Posted By 999HAUNTS I hope you have a good time, but I have to say that we were kind of bored.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I was there yesterday afternoon and, although kind of busy, the crowds were very manageable. As far as I could tell, the only real notable change from last year is the removal of Candy Corn Acres in DCA, due to the construction. There are some other minor changes (more fall leaves with the pumpkins on Main Street), and some of the decorations have been replaced with similar-but-not-quite-identical new versions, but everything else is pretty much the same.

Originally Posted By tashajilek Candy corn acres is gone now? Hopefully the crowds will die down by the 11th, but i know it will still be busy. I really do love looking around at all the pumpkins.
Originally Posted By Sparrow I was probably crazy busy on Fri because it was the first night and nobody was blocked. I'm going this Friday during the day with a friend and we plan on taking off if the crowds are crazy in the evening. Or escaping to DCA.
Originally Posted By Sparrow IT was probably crazy. I myself AM crazy but not just on Friday nights during Halloweentime.
