I haven't.. I know people who have waited two hrs or more to get a seat. It is a very popular event and people wait in line to get in.
We are not going inside this year to see it. If you have to see the actual show then you probably will have to wait in line, but we are just going to stay in the area outside and listen to it.
We did the dinner package last year, in mid-Dec, and still waited in line for 45 minutes!!! The line for non-dinner pkg. people was huge!!! They did get seats but way to the back and/or sides. I don't think I saw anyone just walk in and be able to sit down at any of the shows we were around for. Always a line.
We go early in Decemeber when crowds are not has heavy either.We do dinner package now instead of the 90 minute que it is about 30 minute wait and we get great seats.
