Late February crowds?

[SnowWhite33]

Hey Gang!!! I've got a Disney itch that needs scratchin' and I'm considering a short trip for Feb 25-28. Is this an ok time to go? I'm not really worried over the weather, but with only 3 nights I was wondering about crowds. Any advice from those that have been at this time is much appreciated!!!

I will be there at that time to Feb 20-26. I have been asking about the crowds at this time too. And I never really get a real answer. Maybe that is a good thing, maybe that means that no one will be there.

That week is Mardi Gras week, and a lot of folk from Louisiana will be there. In my experience, Mardi Gras week is not as crowded as spring break or summer, but is more crowded than September. I would say medium crowds.

We'll be there 2/27 - 3/6. The cheerleaders arrive 2/27 - 3/1. Hopefully it won't be too crowded.

Do the cheerleaders stay at Disney? Or do they make their way to Universal too?...We're not going to Disney this year(I know...the person that came up with that idea was crazy), but we are going to Universal and Sea World.

And to answer the original question the crowds are LOW. Plenty of us from NH will be *trying* to escape these single digits. I also remember a lot of British the last time. For the most part, though, most people wait until it warms up a bit more.
