Sounds like a Troy Porter attempt at humor. And I do mean attempt.

That Troy Porter guy is a dweeb. And totally unfunny. Put him on Ignore.

Okay, wait a minute, there's not only a thing called the Golden Ticket Awards, but there was a new ride this year called Reese's Cupfusion and you are just now telling us about this?!?
I just Googled Reese's Cupfusion. I assumed it was a teacup ride, but it's actually a dark ride where you shoot laser beams at little chocolate creatures. Or something. How did we not know about this???

Sorry, this is a Disney-Centric board, though we do talk about other places in SoCal...
But I should be riding Cupfusion next June

So I'm beyond confused.
Current wait times during a beautiful early September day in California. SoCal APs unblocked.
Splash Mountain: 35 min
HMH: 55 min
Target Run: 45 min
Peter Pan: 20 min
Radiator Springs: 75 min
Guardians: 45 min
Soarin: 45 min
Space Mountain: 75 min
So it looks the AP crowds have returned, but I was expecting *much* higher numbers for the first Sunday. Did people just show up for the Friday fireworks and then leave?
Can we blame the NFL now?

Thanks @BubbaQuest !
And 3pm on a Sunday is the peak of the crowds, as Sunday crowds tend to drain away quickly after 5pm as everyone goes home to do laundry and pack lunches for Monday morning back to work and school.
Disneyland is open until Midnight tonight, but I imagine by evening the wait times will be dropping quickly.

Tower of Terror, Midway Mania - 10 Minutes
Rock N' Roller Coaster - 20 Minutes
Millennium Falcon: Target Run - 40 Minutes

It’s crazy. At DCA now and it’s been very light crowds all day. Walkways feel pretty empty. Wait time for rides are average except for the Guardians Halloween overlay. Haven’t been to DL yet. Walkways haven’t been this empty in a while.

Parks on both coasts are pretty empty. What’s going on? Obviously SWGE hasn’t been enough to overcome the downturn, which is disappointing, but what the heck is causing it in the first place.
But please last a couple more weeks until my vacation!!!

Isn't that also the place that serves the jerky, with the robot spinning the bbq spit?
I went in there in June and it was empty then too.

Why buy a Ronto Wrap for $16 when the Plaza inn fried chicken is $18?

Because I’m a fool. I literally made the same exact comparison in my mind as I was eating the overpriced Ronto Wrap. I didn’t Remember it being so expensive.

I recently asked a few long time food and beverage CM's that have worked around the resort what the best value for dollar meal is at the resort.... Plaza Inn was the winner, though one said they used to prefer French Market before they changed the menu.
From now on, I dine exclusively at the inn. Also, the $5 boudin sourdough loaf at DCA is good too, and if you order inside they'll slice it for free.
