18-20!! I would love to be able to get that many people down there. The closest we came was Spring Break in 1994. We had 16 of us there. That was a blast!
I also went to a wedding down there in 2005. For the wedding itself there were about 30 of us. We never really got together before or after. Some were just there for the day. Flew in the night before, left the morning after.

"Flew in the night before, left the morning after" REALLY?!?! What were they thinking? 
I never thought I would say this but cheerleaders are a little better than BTGs. At least cheerleaders don't fake not being able to understand you when you tell them they are not all riding together in the single rider line or all in the front row.mindflipper wrote:OMG!! It fills me with dread when I'm in a park and suddenly see those BTG's....

That was my experience at Test Track! I was proud of the CM - he held his ground and would not give in, no matter how badly the BTG's acted!MadEye wrote:I never thought I would say this but cheerleaders are a little better than BTGs.

Oh that would be so frustrating! I wonder if the CM's can gather their "little" group and direct them, with two fingers of course, into the stand-by line where they belong?!MadEye wrote:When you see them in the single rider lines at RnRC, Test Track or Everest, be ready for this word: "TOGEDER.

Oh it gets worse that that I was frustrated into not getting a FP for TSM because one of these flag waving tour guides took all their tickets and stood getting FP's for them all, I kid you not that guy had at least 60 tickets and as I stood watching the clocks go up and up I knew I'm not getting on this today.
And that therein lies the problem. They don't want to wait in the standby line. They want to wait as little as possible in the single rider line. Hence the faking of not understanding English and the Portuguese version of "TOGEDER."Amy wrote:Oh that would be so frustrating!

I shall just have to ask my Portuguese friend to load me up with a few phrases so if this happens when I am there, dare I say, when I am working there, I will be prepared 
let's see, I would need "I don't think so" "Single does not mean 92 of you!" and "you belong in that line over there" oh, and I should probably learn "have a great day - over there!"
