Just bought my MHP ticket for 10/17!!!! 6th year in a row!!!! Something upsetting happened on the phone with the CM, though. I mentioned I had made my own costume and she said something about "bounding" (Disneybounding). She was sounding kind of wishy-washy about what the rules are and making it sound as if there was a different costume policy than the one that is posted right on the Disney website! Like she was suggesting I Disneybound rather than wear the garb I spent five weeks and over $150 sewing (and it's super-cute too...look for Steampunk Mary Poppins if you're there on 10/17!).
Now I've been to MHP for the last 5 years and wore a costume each time. Each year (including this one) I had checked the guidelines on the website beforehand, especially because every time except once I sewed my own costume and wanted to make sure I wouldn't be turned away at the gate. So this was alarming and annoying, especially after questioning her and determining that yes, the web info is correct. I don't know why they'd tell you something different from what the web says. If it's anything to do with wanting to do away with costumes, well - they're not gone yet and until then, giving a guest conflicting info is just irritating. I don't want to pack it in a suitcase and cart it all the way to Anaheim only to be turned away at the park gate.
