Yehaa Bob or a second HEA viewing?

[EdmondD]

We have an MK day this Saturday (oh how I love being able to finally type that) and are excited about seeing Happily Ever After (on its second showing!). We have another MK day next Thursday, May 18. We had planned to leave MK next Thursday around 7 to make it over to Yehaa Bob at POR.

We have only seen him once in passing and really liked it and obviously he gets great reviews. Each trip I plan to see him but one way or the other he always gets bumped. It's really the only day in the schedule we could fit him in.

I've told the family he's on the schedule but if our MK day is going great and we were so blown away with HEA the first time we might skip Bob and stay in the park for another HEA viewing We are staying at the Beach Club, so the schlep over to and back from POR is also a factor (though I plan to uber from POR to BC after his show).

Any thoughts? Is Bob so great you'd make the trip and skip a second fireworks viewing?

Fireworks.

Yehaa Bob. Best show on property. He just celebrated his 20th anniversary at WDW.

I would decide after I see the fireworks.. you'll make a more informed choice on if you want to deal with the first weekend crowds to see it again or if you even liked it.

We did that often. Yehaa Bob was on our to do list and we kept bumping it - then one day we saw the end of his show and was sorry we missed the whole thing. Although I would say 2 of our kids would say the Fireworks. Sorry I can't help - but I would see what you think of the fireworks. Enjoy - I am jealous as our trip isn't for months.

You can do HEA and catch Yehaa Bob's 2nd set that usually starts around 10ish. I think he performs until around 11:15pm

You'll probably know which after you see HEA the first time. If you can manage it, Yee Ha Bob is fabulous and worth every minute of your time!

Our family would vote Bob, since you have several other options to see the Fireworks but no other options to see Bob.
Last summer DGD9 got to pick, go back to MK for Wishes or stay at POR for Bob. She picked Bob. For the 3rd time that trip. She loved him that much.

By the way, he just celebrated his 20th year last week.

Thanks, everybody! Sounds like it's kind of a 50-50 split.

With a 6yo, @yulilin3, the second show is not doable, but I appreciate the thought! And @AngiTN, with the way the schedule is, it's actually the only other night we could go again - we also have Fantasmic, Star Wars fireworks, etc. Something each night. Granted, I imagine the Star Works show will be nothing compared to HEA, but we're trying to spread around the activities. Maybe we'll reconsider some of those as we go along. Especially when you consider our first viewing will be a VERY crowded day (the first Saturday viewing of HEA).
