Ugh, I think that's why I like to go off season. I am one of those bad mommies who take their kids out of school to avoid the crowds. LOL.

Originally Posted By Darkbeer FYI, the fireworks are usually offered just Friday and Saturday during the off-season, not on Sunday! With the work on Tom Sawyer's Island in early 2007, you should get Fireworks on every weekend until Labor Day.

I assumed it was just due to the 50th, but we've gone several times since it was over(Oct/nov), and it just seems to be very crowded all the time. Must be that Darned FP. I can't wait to go on MT at night again!
