Well, one can dream, I suppose... :cat1:
Nice dream, but can you imagine how big we'd have to build these penalty boxes to accommodate the vast number of SG's?

Nope, sorry-that type of finish is reserved for Knott's Berry Farm SG's :D:

You do that, you go to the box, you know? Two minutes by yourself and... you feel shame, you know? ... and then, you get free.

Wednesday (29th) I had a Guest come to my turnstile at DHS and his two day ticket rejected as "No More Entries". I told him that and he said he had only used it one day. Ran it through again, same result, and did a history. It showed the 28th at Epcot and the 27th As DHS.
Again he claimed that he had only used it at Epcot. He had come to DHS for Dinner on the 27th. I told him that he had entered the park and been charged for the day. If he had any questions to go over to Guest Relations.
He had several unfavorable comments at that time, the least of which was "rip-off".
Last time I looked if you make an in-park dining reservation the operator will tell you Park Admission is required, and if done online the confirmation says the same thing.

I had a situation where I actually told a Guest:
"The computer for the turnstiles here thinks that today is Thursday. The computer for the turnstiles at Animal Kingdom also thinks today is Thursday. The two turnstile computers talk to each other. If you can convince the turnstile here that today is not the same Thursday as at the Animal Kingdom it will let you in."
