Re: Epcot Rope Drop?

This is what we havwe always experienced, as well... but the show is not why we go to rope drop... We go because you can go stright to TT (go extremely fast and don't stumble -- there is a stampede!), ride once, get a FP, then go stright to M:S. Next, ride TT once more, then come out and get immediately back in line to use you FP... That way, the park has been only open about half an hour, but you already ridden Test Track three times and Mission: Space once! Fabulous!!! Be sure to go to the rope at the far left -- you can cut through Innoventions, or you can swing around by MouseGear to get to the rides...
