Never understand way folks do this, spend half day of their expensive hard earned vacation time to get 2 one day tickets at a reduced rate! If you add up the wasted time those tickets work out very expensive.

II believe you can still get cheap tickets if you're prepared to sit through a time share presentation, but rather you than me.

Its not really finger printing...it takes 4 points or so of the size of your finger....and it is held for 30 days after it used...
If they are unsure they ask for a picture ID....that you have signed...and they you have to sign at the gate...
Just so people know..you don't have to have it done...you can just show picture ID...
On our honeymoon in 1995 we went to a timeshare presentation for our tickets. Hubby was smart and over inflated our income so that we were called through almost immediately (annoyed one family with 5 kids no end). I thought that we would get through really quickly then say 'thanks but no thanks' and off to the park we would go. Hubby had different ideas: he thought that it would be fun to wind up the sales guy. We spoke to the sales guy, his supervisor and finally his boss, all for us to say 'no'. Why couldn't we have done this hours earlier?[zzz]
What a waste of valuable holiday time[msnwink]

Last time we tried to get in using our Disney passes (having used them a year previously), it wouldn't let my son in. The chap at the gate said 'are you sure its your ticket' at which point we realised it was my husbands, they swapped and both got in OK so the answer is yes, they DO store the data!

Don't sound very smart to me, just sounds like a waste of time![msnwink]
FWIW (and I have absolutely no personal interest in this) but I never buy any ticket for anything from anything other than an authorised outlet - this includes park tickets, concert tickets anything!!!
I can't imagine how disappointed (and humiliated) I would be if for any reason I was declined entry to the event or in this case one of the parks.
Even back in 1992 on our first visit to Orlando we avoided the ticket touts in booths (after all that is all they are) - they just smacked of taking a risk and to me it just wasn't worth taking.
