Summer Olympics affecting August crowds this year?

[blast822]

Hi - I was just wondering .... we usually go the same time in August when we go, mid-August. We find there are a lot of tourists from England during that time. What do you think, will the Olympics affect the crowds at Disney during that time?

prices remain as last year so I think that the Olympics will not affect business too much

The only time I have seen a change in crowd size due to a major sporting event was when the Super Bowl was in Tampa and the crowds during the week before were heavier than normal for that time period.

I would think not, because I would be sure to be out of there for the duration of the Olympics if it was me!
