I am trying to figure out what would be the best way to handle a 1 day hopper ticket I won at a silent auction.
I am taking two trips in February for ESPN sports events. 1 is for the NCA cheer comp (Feb 8-14) and the other is for the gymnastics Presidential classic over Presidents weekend (Feb 16-22). They are plastic tickets and I was told only black out date is Christmas week.
For the NCA Cheer comp, I have to get their 5 day package tickets per school and NCA requirement to be in the room with my daughter, but we need 6 days. I confirmed I can't add a day to the 5 day ticket. I had orginally planned on upgrading to an annual pass when we were there this past Sept. Glad I didn't as I would have still had to buy the NCA ticket package.
For the gymnastics comp, I don't have any tickets at all. It is me and DD1 and would like at least 4 day tickets.
The Presidents weekend gymnastics comp has ESPN rate of $317 for a 4 day hopper. Important note is on the gymnastics ticket site it says tickets are valid during event duration and 7 days prior to start and 7 days after end. So I think technically for my ticket I could add a day on the gymnastics meet ticket to cover my 6th day with DD2 in her cheer competition which is from 2/8-2/14. A worse case scenario is we just do 5 days and not add the 6th day which isn't the end of the world. One of those 6 days would be the day they are competing. And another day (Sunday) there is a HS after party 8:00-1:00 AM so could use a pool day that day.
I got the 1 day park hoppers for $55 per ticket (valued at $160 per the auction).
1) Do I use those $55 tickets for the cheer comp 6th day?
2) Do I upgrade the one day to 4 days for the gymnastics comp and not get the $317 4 day hoppers through the espn ticket place? I just can't figure out how much I would be paying to upgrade those.
3) If I do option 2, can I not add those days until I'm down there? Technically will be there a good 10 days before I would need to use them when I'm there for the cheer comp. I guess I'm most worried about pre-booking fast passes. For the earlier trip I'm onsite but don't get the NCA tickets until check in. Boo. For the gymnastics one we are off site for the first 4 nights and then onsite for the last 2 nights.
My head is hurting thinking about this all and I'm probably not explaining it great.
