Disney Channel Games 2008???

[Rachel0423]

(I forget where I read that), how many stars can they actually pack into the three hours of filming?

I was just thinking about that, too! Three are confirmed... so there couldn't be too many more...

So, maybe they are doing the All-Star party on the 30th this year?

Found a site that said Ashley Tisdale should be participating (missashley.info)... It doesn't really look too reputable, so don't get your hopes up! Just thought I'd share with everyone... I can't imagine they'd take a week out of filming to bring in the HSM cast... but I could be wrong!

Also, at disneyhsmblog.blogspot.com, they've posted two different entries about rumored participants. One says Aly & AJ are RUMORED to be at the concert. Two of the "Life with Derek" stars are also mentioned as POSSIBLE participants...

Don't want to get any rumors going! Nothing for sure ...

You are doing a great job of "tracking down" "leads"!I hope Sharpay is there again this year.I got everyone's autograph I wanted last year except her's.I was about five feet from her last year one time,but she was in "Sharpay" mode and just waved and kept on trucking!LOL

I was fortunate enough to "hear" that this event was going to happen while at WWoS one day last year during the tapings,so I was able to be there when it happened.It was at Epcot at the American Adventure Pavilion.It was basically a press event in support of DCG 2007.It was an EVENING event and did not preclude taping earlier in the day.I would think if they have it again,it would be on Friday night-the night before the DCG Concert like last year.I t was fun to be there.Of course we were not allowed into The American Adventure where it was taking place,but the Stars were escorted in from Backstage at different intervals and everyone would wave and speak to them.We were about five feet from them as they walked by-Miley Cyrus has LONG legs!After the press event in The American Adventure they were all escorted down World Showcase Promenade to a private(of course) IllumiNations Party on one of the lagoon-side patios.They were all-dressed up and looked GREAT!

I was just thinking about that three!LOL Maybe they are just going to have all of them up there at one time and and call it "The Disney Channel All-Star Band"!LOL

You're making me want to take the whole week off from work and buy new passes but there's just no way right now! What fun!

The rational side of me says "big deal, they're just people" - the other side says "OMG! OMG! OMG!" LOL

Just a thought about Friday... last year, the day before the concert, they had a "Disney Channel Games Party" for the stars. I wonder if they'll be having that again this year... It wouldn't fill up the whole day, but maybe some of it?

That was the press event/IllumiNations Party I mentioned in another post.It was only an evening event.

 

[WEDWDW]

Then may I ask why is the 30th a no games day? I am not doubting you, just curious as to where you get your information and how you know this.
Thanks for the info....Just a note I have yet to see anything concrete of a fan day. So you are right until I hear otherwise. Thanks again for the info


OR is it in a hotel or ANOTHER undisclosed area...I'm trying here...lol

No,you may NOT ask!LOL lxh11 does not respond to posts. lxh11 is like the Navy Seals-in and out and you don't even know it until it is over!We still love you lxh11! We just wish you would be a little more "responsive" and "participatory".

Just got back in town and have started doing more research to see if I can find out who will be at the games. My son is a die hard Ahsley Tisdale fan so I am holding out hope that she will possibly make it. Found this a little bit ago. Don't know how credible, but thought I would share

Found on the Wiki Answers site

******************************************************

Where will the 2008 disney channel games be held?

Yes there will be! There will also be 4 teams unlike the previous games! The teams are: Blue, Red, Green and Yellow! Don't no who r in da teams but i no : Emily Osmett is in da Yellow team (Lilly from Hannah Montana) and Ashley Tisdale is in tha red team!

*******************************************************

Now, I don't know where these people get their information, or if they just grabbed this from last year, but I am hoping maybe they are correct. Not having been there last year, I don't know if there was really less than 4 teams before. I'll post any other rumors I see- that haven't been mentioned already.

I'm actually hoping that if there is a Fanfest they will open it to the public. I never received an email back either confirming or denying I received tickets to the concert, but did receive an email from Rosemarie stating that if you haven't received a confirmation yet, you problem wont be getting one. She said that they were full by 12:07 am, so I think I just missed it by a minute or two. Bummer. So, I'm hoping that just because I wasnt fortunate enough to get concert tickets, that it would deny me the chance to attend some type of fanfest. But if it does, congrats to those of you on here that might get a chance. You're all true fans and all deserve to go.

I'll keep you all posted if I get any other info.

 

[Osjah&Landon'sMom]

Yeah there are only so many they can actually have in that concert... but remember... last year they had Hannah, Jonas Bros., Cheetahs, Corbin and then Miley in her debut as Miley...2 songs each so 10 songs total... in theory if everyone did one song, they could have 10 people in that show LOL

 

[jfulcer]

So we know that Disney does read these boards - I bet they are just laughing at all of us frothing at the mouths to get more information. heh

 

[mahipp]

For those of you who've seen me stewing about *which* day to go watch the games - I just figured how I can go another day.

Since I have to drive over to pick up my tickets, instead of going on Saturday like I originally planned, I'll go Monday. I can leave work about 1230, pick up my kids at school early, then drive over and be in Orlando by about 3. If they are filming the games till 7 - then I can maybe see something and get a feel for what the schedule will be like the rest of the week.

 

[JIMMAR]

I will go along with JIMMAR's post if someone can just answer this one simple question:If Fan Fest is going to be on April 30 and only DCG Concet Ticket holders are going to be allowed and the information will be in the ticket envelopes,WOULDN'T DISNEY SCHEDULE THE LAST DAY FOR PICK-UP TO BE APRIL 29!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DISNEY knows that most if not all the ticket will be picked up before the 30th because the demand for the tickets is so high and no ones will want to lose their tickets. Going the last min to pick the tickets up would be crazy.

Plus doing it this way will help keep crowds down and make a better fan fest for eveyone

 

[mahipp]

do you have "inside" info?

Hi!I heard you guys were going to have Animal Kingdom all to yourself Sunday night.HOW FUN!Wow,you are really going to get "acquainted" with Wide World of Sports between the Cheerleading and Dance World events at The Milk House and the Disney Channel Games at Champion Stadium!

Yes, we will be spending some time at WWS this visit. Thank goodness the competition schedule is not hush-hush like the dcgames. We still willl have plenty of time to visit the parks. We visit disney every year so i'm sure we will be on a mission to do all of our favorites! Maybe we can score some dcgames info over the weekend while at the comp... Oh, yeah... the comp is hosting a party at animal kingdom sunday nite from 9-1!!!

Joed911 - I have tried to reply to your pm, due to my low post count, I don't think my reply goes thru.

Let's just say you are all having such fun speculating, that no matter what info I give, you all put arms and legs on it Just know I have only posted exact accurate info.

I hope to say hi to some of you at the ticket window, due to the many posts here, we have tried to alleviate some angst and try to clear up any misunderstood info. Don't overthink it, just go with the flow and enjoy.

I have actually spoken to several of you on the phone - NSMAMA, Joed911. Perhaps WEDWDW

You gotta let us in on how it works, since I think you'll be one of the first on here going on the first day!

I won't be picking up my tickets until the 30th, so if people get their packets and there's info just PM as to whether I should drive and get my tickets early in the morning (oh, say, the second the window opens) or later in the afternoon.

My friends and I were thinking, since the games weren't being filmed on that day, and there is only a chance for a fan fest thing, we might head over later and just hang out at Old Town. They have a buy one get one free deal on Wednesdays! lol. We'd probably head over about 3ish if there's no fan fest because then we could just check straight into our hotel...motel...something-tel, lol, which is right next to Old Town.

Hope to see you all there! I'll be watching out for huge groups of parents hanging out, maybe I'll point and be like, "Hey, I talk to them on the computer!" Haha.

Oooh scandalous! We have an insider amongst us!

Hey there! Enjoy your stay! Be sure to try to keep us going in the right direction

I'm so excited about my plan! LOL

My 15 year old is sleeping over at a friend's house and I texted her that I "have a new plan". She sleepily called me about an hour ago - she wasn't as excited as I am - when she wakes up she'll probably be like "what was Mom talking about?" LOL
