Ok...I need some info. My husband wants to go over and check out WWoS during our upcoming trip. For anyone that has been there what exactly can be done once there? What is the admission cost for the day?

I believe it will be DH, DS(12) and Dnephew (18). I will probably do something else w/ DD's, 3 1/2 and 8.

All info is greatly appreciated.

DH and I have been there 2x. The first time, DH did the "NFL experience." He basically went through 'training exercises' similar to what the pros would go through. There are different stations for kicking a goal, practice throwing the football, etc. There were only a few other guests there so the CMs had plenty of time to devote to DH.

The 2nd time we went was to watch the Tampa Bay Bucs during spring training (last Aug. 2003). DH wanted to see coach Jon Gruden (the former coach of DH's team--Oakland Raiders. We live less than 5 miles from the Raiders HQ.)

I'm not sure about ticket prices because our admission was included in our hoppers.

Hope this helps.

Lyn-CA....thanks for the reply.

The three of them would love to do the NFL Experience thing.

Maybe I can get a manicure or something at our resort while the boys have their fun.

Missy,

A manicure or any other spa treatment sounds great.

Your guys would enjoy the NFL experience if they are anything like my sportsnut DH.

I remember after we went to WWS for DH, he went with me to afternoon tea at the GF. Sort of a give-and-take thing.

It's only fair.....it will be a great chance for girl time w/ the daughters too.

Take care.

DH and I went (while on our honeymoon in 1997). He did the NFL Experience & I sat on a bench with a charming "older" woman & had a great time chit-chatting.

Then we went to the All Star Cafe.

That's about it. I don't think anything was going on as far as any teams training at the time.

Just wondering if the NFL challenge is something that is always available to participate in or if it is only certain times? This is something that my bf would be really interested in.

Thanks

Sorry, I looked around & couldn't find any information.
