Inspired by PGA FUNAI Classic thread--R the parks busier?

[harleyquinn]

Hi everyone!

I'm planning my October trip for next year and I need to decide which week in October, the 9-16 or 16-23. Does the FUNAI Classic make the parks noticably busier? I believe it will be the weekend of the week of the 16, since that seems to be the normal date.

Thanks!

When my dad went to the FUNAI Classic (he was at WDW for a conference), he said that the golf course was fairly empty...which makes me think that parks wouldn't be experiencing any extra crowds. However, he didn't go in the parks when he was there - Just the FUNAI and Downtown Disney.

We were there last year during the Funai classic and didn't notice the parks being any busier. We didn't even know about it until after we had gotten home and a friend of mine asked me if we had gone to it.

Great! Thanks!

I noticed that UG has the crowd levels lower for that weekend than the weekend before it.

RyMickey - do you know from your dad how to get tickets to the Funai? If we can get tickets I would really like to take DH in 2006. It's a dream of is to see Tiger Woods in person.
