I was at the last hard ticket fiasco- the Villains Unleashed deal. That was pretty awful. They ended up refunding a lot of tickets in full. This is more money, but still has the potential to be a fiasco. Still, I'm tempted. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TCD You will have every Star Wars afficianado within the state and bordering states trying to get in since they did away with Star Wars Weekends. Those were crazy enough.

Those were crazy enough. Right-especially since this is being run at the same time as the big Star Wars celebration at the Orlando Convention Center. That event alone draws a big crowd. Plus, they will surely be hyping the new movie and probably have a big tribute to Carrie Fisher. And, they're cramming it all in to one five hour event which will only be offered on one night. Yikes.
