I think Universal also raised its multi day ticket prices, although not to the level of Disney.
I may have misunderstood y'all when you were talking about Universal and how they only raised only the one day ticket. Well, according to the OS, they did raise multi-day ticket prices as well. I'm not sure if I misunderstood or not, but I just wanted to get this out there, so people were aware. Also, I wouldn't mind hearing a roundtable show discussing the finer points of Universal Studios, as I've never been and might like to go there once Harry Potter opens.

The same day it reported a rise in corporate profits and a continued slide in theme-park attendance, Universal Orlando raised many of its ticket prices Friday, matching Walt Disney World's $71 for a one-day adult admission.
The new prices took effect immediately, days after Disney instituted similar increases. Both resorts raised their basic one-day, one-park ticket by $4.
And similar to Disney, Universal also hiked the cost of many multiday packages, its Florida discount admissions and children's tickets. But the package prices rose less than the basic one-day, one-park tickets purchased at the resort, further enticing people to buy packages or get their tickets via the Internet.
