ESPN Weekend at Disney MGM Studios

This is advertised as taking place February 25-27th 2005 and as having also taken place 1 weekend last summer.

I have been told that crowd levels at Disney Studios are usually light on a sunday.

Anyone know how big an impact the ESPN weekend will have on crowd levels?
Will it be best avoided that weekend?

Anyone there last summer when this event also took place?

I was there when the event took place and yes the even drew in additional people. The upside is that most of the people there for the event, where busy doing the event stuff and not the normal MGM stuff. I know we spent the day going to all the interviews, shows, etc. I don't think we even went into one regular attraction.

So do you think it is best avoided if you're not into the ESPN stuff or do you think those that are there will be so preoccupied with the ESPN stuff that the likes of Bear in the big blue house, TOT and RnR Coaster will be quieter?

I've also discovered that sundays are EMH Evenings at MGM this year. Does that mean the park will be busy all day with resort guests or more likely just late afternoon and evening?
