Really it wasnt busy there? Didnt know that. It typically is a big holiday right?
Apparently crowds were so light that Star Tours was a walk on the entire day practically. Crowds started to form for the fireworks show.
cause i wasnt there ;)
I voted people traveling out of town, and not meaning SoCal people going away, meaning out of towners being at home for the 4th with family/friends
Blockouts and having a reputation for being busy. If locals think it's going to be miserable crowded they'll stay away. Now word of mouth will be that it really isn't so bad, so I'll guess next year will be busy again.
I've been there on Thanksgiving weekends where it isn't very crowded, but they anticipated heavy crowds.
because it was so freakin' crowded last year, that everyone said "NO WAY" this year including me! Dang - the one year...now next year it will be a zoo again
...Because even on non-holidays, everyone I know outside of this forum hasn't touched the place in at least two years because of the insane crowds caused by Disney papering the house with APs...?Quote:

With the "off-season" becoming smaller and smaller, our visits are getting fewer and farther between.
Because it's so crowded, nobody goes there anymore?
I think it's due to the economy and the fact that the 4th fell on a Monday that made a difference. Most people I knew didn't end up traveling because it was on a Monday, or were traveling back home on that day rather than celebrating.
It has been really, really, hot here lately. I would say the "local crowd" (myself included) avoided it because of how terrible the weather was.
I would vote for it was because the 4th was on a Monday and people didn't take Tuesday off.
Maybe the rapture was late.
