Lemonade, way to shift. That sounds awesome.Yep, i had two options.. Sept 7th or 9th, but neither would let me buy 4 tix.
No dice, so we're going to go to Knotts Scary Farm on that day now.
Have a wonderful time at Knott's! My family used to go to Scary Farm in the 70s and 80s, and always had a blast there.Yep, i had two options.. Sept 7th or 9th, but neither would let me buy 4 tix.

Yep, me tooAaannddd as soon as I wrote that I got "the queue has closed" after over 11 hours of waiting.
I agree!! I guess if they did later, people would complain that they had to miss their EE to wait at the front desk for their OBB tickets! No way to make everyone happy with a limited thing like tickets (talk to me, Taylor Swift). In any case, I was thrilled to get the tickets in 2021 because my DD is a huge NMBC fan, and I hated that we had to give up our tickets to MNSSHP to shift to DLR due to my work issues. So getting the OBB tickets was a big cherry on top for her. She was very sweet and said she was happy just to be at DLR during Halloween, but I did feel it was a victory to get the tickets! Sounds crazy, even as I type it; Disney, you have trained me well…Seriously, WHY does Disney make people get up at the crack of dawn to MAYBE get tickets for a late night evening event? What a fun vacation moment.
Any reason this could not occur at 8am or 10am? Goodness.
I’ve never seen it this crazy before either. We’ve been twice and nothing like this experience.
Ha ha ha … hope you got a nap in at least!
That's terrible. I would never have thought this was possible. I was thinking of doing a DVC exchange at the GCH for next year's OBB. No way I can risk that after this year. I suppose it's time to write Disney in hopes they open more days in the future.
It actually worked out ok because I was there doing a work conference, which went virtual due to COVID concerns (but was held in Orlando, thus our original plan to be at WDW that weekend) about a week before the trip. Since I was not going to be able to attend live, I thought why not be in DLR instead of WDW (and much easier for my 14 yo DD to navigate DLR by herself while I was doing the conference in the mornings). In any case, the conference started at 7:00am Orlando time, so I was actually missing some at 0500 California time by being in line for the tickets! So at least my adrenaline was pumping for the conference at that hour of the morning!!
I am so sorry that you had this experience today. I have been following along today and was so hoping you would get tickets. I know the dates are not ideal, but I really hope you guys can make it because it is a lot of fun!!! Glad you get to hopefully go!I wanted the 19th or the 22nd of October and 22nd October sold out literally 2 min before I got into the purchase tickets page and I felt angry and possessed and bought tickets for October 24th since that’s the only day that would go through for me. Now I have to add some days onto the trip and hope my hubs will be able to get it off. I logged in at 9:45 am mountain time & got through the queue at 6:30pm mst
The real question in my mind is, how many tickets were sold to resellers versus actual guests? Because I don’t see how the entire event sold out so quickly. People were populating EBay with OBB tickets for $3,000 while they were still being sold today. And that’s just those who risk EBay. What about all the Facebook scammers, etc.? How many tickets are on the black market right now? Makes me so angry!
Makes me angry too. I reported the ones I saw on eBay.
In past years all 3 had them available at their front desks but from what I heard last year Paradise Pier and DLH had to walk over to a the Grand
