24. I am a charter member and their initial email announcement had offered up to 6 tickets per order

Sep 2016

for members on August 27th and those quickly ran out (leaving many upset folks). They then emailed on September 1st to offer more tickets on September 6th and I know those went quickly as well... but that email did note -

New extended hours will be available between September 24 and October 2, 2016. November and December passes will also be released at this same time.

I knew that I wouldn't be able to get down there for awhile so didn't avail myself but I'll get there eventually. Being from Philly, I am just a couple hours on I-95 by car from there. I know my BIL wants to go.
