If there is any way possible to see F!, do it. My boys still talk about it, the dragon was their favorite part! We didn't wait for hours (maybe we just got lucky, I don't know), but we found a perfect spot right in front of the ropes on the left side of the water about 15 minutes before show time. It was right next to a smoking section, but it didn't bother us, because the smoking section was being used for a lot of families and there weren't any smokers near us.
