« on: December 23, 2016, 09:12:31 AM »
I didnt know whether to start a new thread, or tie this up into another :-\ :-\

SO?  new thread it is..

Thursday-12-22-16...  21,000 people!!!   WOW,   If this is any indication to the endo of the year numbers, The PTB should be very happy :D

I will get fridays number over the weekend..  Although I am on vacation next week, I will try to monitor next weeks number also..

It's good that they'll get some good days to make up for the loss of last weekend + Christmas being on a weekend. They aren't open tomorrow for Christmas Eve (a good thing), so hopefully the reasonably decent weather next week gives them a good final run.

I'm looking forward to them being open for New Years next year.

Weather was unpleasant all day.  Rain, drizzle, wet, windy and just yucky.  Not surprised those numbers were way down.

The rest of this week will likely make up for it, as it's supposed to be unseasonably nice weather most days.
This is a stick up!  Get it? Stick.... Nevermind, it's a train robbery.  I want everyone to get your hands up and act scared.

You want to see packed?   Try an Orlando park this week.  Luckily my family knows how to navigate the parks and keep waits to a minimum

Wonder how you got these numbers. Thought SDC didn't release park numbers. Also curious on the percentages on season pass holders versus one day tickets. Always been curious on how many season pass holders actually attend the park.

I dont access to that kind of info.. there may be 1 or 2 guys on this board that can do that... but would probably week or month at a time..  not daily...

ANYWAY...  Tuesdays number was a little over 15,500,  i was surprised with the road traffic i saw, the number wasnt bigger..

Look for big numbers tomorrow and friday, good temps, nice weather, last days of the year......

Some of us go to the park enough that we make friends .  And find out how to get the info, this has to be done in some part for staffing ect.
