It's your birthday, not your INAUGURATION DAY! Everybody has one, once a year!

Ooo, will Obama get in free next Tuesday? That's what I'd do, given the choice.

I had a lady a few days ago who waited in the 15 minute line at City Hall, came in, waited until I had finished her Birthday transaction, THEN yelled at me for how long the line was, capping it off with "Some Birthday!!" I wanted to take her "fun card" back and kick her out, I couldn't believe it. We get all sorts of variations on the "Is this all we get?" statement in the hall. On the first day I had a girl come in who had gotten the FYOB ticket at the booths and upgraded it to a hopper, then she brought that in and tried to lie about it to get a "fun card", then when I called her on it but offered her a button, she slid it back across the counter quickly and said "What is THAT gonna do for me?" and stormed off. I almost quit that day.
Man, that sounds awful! I don't blame you.
It never ceases to amaze me how greedy and dishonest people can be.

No, you need to bring the original or a CERTIFIED Copy. Photocopy a Birth Certificate and you get a nice copy with "VOID COPY" all over it.

You would not believe the arguments we get into at the booths now thanks to that.

Ah, yes, but my birthday IS Inauguration day!!!

And yes, I'll be at Epcot that day with my 11 year old having a wonderful time, hopefully!

I've always wanted to spend my birthday at an Inauguration ball, but the only one I've ever been invited to wanted nearly 4k for each ticket - Epcot was a much more reasonable choice, LOL!
