Which park has the best park opening?

I'm going to say Magic Kingdom of course!

What do the other parks really do? I've only been to Animal Kingdom at rope drop not Epcot or Hollywood Studios.

I love getting off the bus and seeing Spaceship Earth without a doubt.

I liked MK's the best. Animal Kingdom's was cute too. DHS didn't have the characters but it was fun.

I was too far back in the crowd to see it at Epcot last year. I'll have to plan it better this year.

I would have to go along with MK.

I think MK has the best show of all, but HS has a fun skit and Epcot has a great close-up character greet. If I had to choose, I would go with MK though, because that one is the most magical for me.

And I am still determined to elbow out some *#@$#% family with 2 *@%(* adorable kids who always get chosen over me to take part in the ceremony.....curses to all cute adorable kids everywhere! Angry

It's usually the director from Citizens of Hollywood, the skinny cue card/sound guy or whatever he is, and maybe one or 2 other characters. They come in on the jalopy car to the mass that has gathered right inside the park about 5-10 minutes before opening, and do a skit that involves someone from the crowd (usually a family with one of the aforementioned pesky cute adorable kids) and rehearse the take for the opening of the park. Then the chosen family officially opens the park.

I'll have to see if I have any pictures.

I'll jump on the MK bandwagon.

Is it just me, or does anyone else find the whole citizens of hollywood shtick old and just not funny?

I don't know that we've ever made it early enough to see any of the parks open...LOL
