Like many people, the concept sounded pointless to me, but this actually looks really cool. I really want to try it.

How much have you spent on amusement parks/coasters/etc in the last 10 years? I haven't been to Disney since '94... when Aliens was almost finished and Tower of Terror was just starting...

I don't really spend that much, I just know a lot of people.. or have friends who work at parks (Its true! I have friends )
I get my Six Flags pass for free, although I had to pay for the parking upgrade. This year I was given a Busch Family pass (so it works at all the Busch parks.. And includes parking and it gets 30% off all food/shopping.. Where as the standard pass is only 7%?)... And my 4 visits to BGA and SWF last year were also on free comp'd tickets. Disney is the same way. I made something like 19 park entrances at Disney parks in the past year.. Without spending a dime (and I ended up winning the Castle Suite too!)

And as far as hotels and crap.. I just stay at like.. Econo Lodges and such where its like 20-30$ a night... So its really not that much. All I need is a bed and a shower, nothing fancy. And for food I just eat before or after going to a park. Its not that hard.

It's still rather impressive that you've done that much travelling at your age. I had a friend working at Disney and could get free admission and lodging, but couldn't afford to get there

Oh wait... I thought you hated big corporate parks? What the heck were you doing at Disney World?

Who said I hate corporate parks? Or big parks? I think that's just a TN urban legend.
