just a thought ...
Right, and if buying a VIP tour gave you FOTL passes, it would be equally wrong. I do feel the plaids with celebrities should do as much as possible to protect them, including using alternative entrances. It is not a "well, they are stars, so they get this treatment", but more of a safety issue for both the celeb and for the guests around them. If you have ever been at the park when a group spots a celeb, you know what I mean.
