Does anyone know the phone number to call to get a reservation for Mike and Mike on friday? That was the only thing I missed out on last year and am hoping to get in this year.

Last year they mentioned the number on the show and they said they only had Thursday left, but when I called they got me in for Friday. I'm being told to just keep listening to the show and they will announce the number to call when they have it. It was a blast - full breakfast, 4 hour show, and if you didn't leave the park and try to come back in, the whole day could have been free (we went to Epcot later that day so used a day on our hoppers anyway).

And the best news - Joba has been added to the list for this year.

I just got an email from the webmaster for Greenies blog. They are going to announce how to get tickets to the show tomorrow(02/15/08) morning. He said they will also be posting the information on their website tomorrow morning as well. If you catch the phone number or email please post it here tomorrow and I will do the same.

Deal. I basically altered my vacation to stop into Orlando and my wife and I really don't want to miss it.

I'd like to go to Mike & Mike, but we fly in Friday morning.

Does anybody know if they'll be using the ABC theater again this year with the construction going on?

If last year is any indication then Mike and Mike will be broadcasting from the ESPN club on the boardwalk on Thursday and then from the Brown Derby on Friday. Of course that is all speculation but I am sure that we will find out tomorrow.

hrcollectibles, in response to your question: the athletes are very accessible for getting autographs. your best bet is to grab a schedule and find out when/which athletes are participating in the Q&A at the Sorcerers hat. When they are up there you want to be waiting by the convertibles on the left side of the stage. They athletes will be taken off stage and back to the cars and the usually sign autographs for a couple of minutes before getting back in the motorcade. I found that was the easiest way to get the autograph. But you can always go up to them if you see them in the park, don't forget they signed up for this weekend knowing that they are there to be accessible to the fans.

You beat me to the post. I as able to get through on my first try. Hopefully they will call back, now I just have to get the day off work.

hrcollectible - you can bring anything into the park. I saw people bringing in multiple bags of mini helmets, footballs, etc. If you are going to bring a ton of stuff get their an hour early so you get through security faster.
