Tell me about WWTBAMPI

Who Wants to be a Millionnaire Play It did not exist the last time I was at WDW and I want to find out more information about it. First of all, which park is it in? Does everyone who goes in have to play or can you sit in an audience if you just want to watch others play? How time consuming is it? Is there usually a long wait to get in?

TIA!

It's in Disney-MGM Studios on Mickey Ave. Here's a short description of the attraction: http://www.wdwinfo.com/wdwinfo/guides/mgm/st-millionaire.htm
The shows are about an hour apart and last around 30 to 40 minutes. There is fastpass available, if it is too crowded. Everyone in the audience can play, but Disney does not force you to play. Trust me, if you don't want to play, you won't be getting into the hotseat!

Does everyone who goes in have to play or can you sit in an audience if you just want to watch others play? Everyone is able to play, every seat has a keypad. First they do a fastest finger question then they fastest person goes down to the hot seat. While this player is answering questions in the hot seat the entire audience is playing along. When they fail they pick another person from the audience

How time consuming is it? 1 session (usually 2 hot seat contestants) usually lasts between 20-25 mins

Is there usually a long wait to get in?You can usually get a fast pass for the show you want and arrive just a few minutes prior to the start time.

Also, When you are answering the question remember bonus points are given out for answering the question correct the fastest.....so...even though they tell you to wait until the keypad is lit....DON"T follow these instructions....as soon as you see the correct answer start clicking the button until it stays lit...

This way you have the best chance of getting extra bonus points for being one of the fastest for answering the question....

If you enjoy game shows, you will probably enjoy this. I love it. (I actually spent an entire day at MGM doing nothing but this!) I enjoy trying to get into the Hot Seat - I have gotten into the Hot Seat on each of my last five trips (though haven't won the whole thing). I think it's a blast! (That said, I don't have any children - I would think it would be pretty boring for very young kids - though I have seen kids as young as 8 get into the Hot Seat).
