I read the accessibility guide and it helps somewhat with this regard, but it keeps saying in many places to get an attendant for the shows to help you.

I'm particularly concerned over the scooter. It doesn't sound to me that the places are set up for it.

For example, what do you do with your scooter if you want to see the Shamu, Believe show? Where does it go? It doesn't sound like you go with your scooter to the seating? It sounds like you have to transfer in this case. Am I wrong? This show is the main reason I want to go to SeaWorld. I remember a big ramp up to the show and I don't think I can push the wheelchair up it, either. I know there are elevators, but then I remember a lot of steps off the elevator which is seating to the show up high and that's not really wheelchair or scooter friendly. I'm really lost here. Please help.

Also, I remember some of the other live shows with a lot of bleecher type stands and that sure isn't friendly to scooters or wheelchairs.

The Shamu stadium has wheelchair/ECV seating midway up the stadium. It is easy to get to just drive up the ramp near the arcade. You do not have to transfer they have wheelchair spots next to benches. Pets Ahoy has ground level as does the Sea Lion show. (The Sea lion show also has an elevated area)
 
We took my scooter to Seaworld this past May and had no trouble what-so-ever. I didn't need to transfer from my scooter at any of the shows that we seen either. Don't worry it is easier than you would think to get around there.
