Boo at the Zoo 2009

So I just seen on the Zoo Atlanta website that the Boo at the Zoo event is only 3 days this year!!!! WHY did they change it? I thought it was every weekend in October last year?! ANYWAY we'll still be going...but the dates are October 24, 25, and 31! Big Smile

  • BOOOOOOOO!

    So what day are we going to try and do the GTG??? I vote for either 24 or 25...probably 24th would be best, but I could still make the 25th (although a little later in the day). 

  • I'm confused...never been before...is Boo at the Zoo at night or during the day?  I saw it say activities were from 10am - 3pm and then it listed extended hours for from 6pm - 10am???
  • Loading the player...
  • WTF?  why would they do that???????????  bastards!

  • It's from 10am-3pm!

    The nightcrawlers are from 6pm-10am, and that's an optional event, and only for kids age 6 and up.

     I'm probably going to go the 24th or 25th...I know it's going to be CRAZY crowded being that it's only 3 days!

  • Booooo! That stinks! It will be CRAZY crowded if those are the only times they are doing it. Insert frownie face here. Last year, the event was in the evening.

  • Well, a big BOO to that one! :-(  Since I'm due on the 22nd, I guess we're not going to make it this year.  I've been looking forward to Boo at the Zoo since last year when I neglected to take him.  I'm so sad!

    Hi, Karen - I understand your concern. We have changed Boo at the Zoo to take palce during the day instead of the evening time. Most people have expressed wanting to be able to see animals while visiting the Zoo for Boo at the Zoo. As more details come, I will keep you informed. Thank you for your continued interest in Zoo Atlanta!!

    So now you're going to be able to see the animals? It didn't bother me ONE bit that we didn't see the animals...I liked the entire set-up and path they made for Boo at the Zoo...and I liked it in the evenings, it's going to be weird going during the morning/day, but I guess if they open more paths to view animals it won't seem as crowded since they'll be more places to go? I hope it's going to be just as fun as last year...I don't like change!

  • I know I liked it at night, too! I hope it is not too hot with all of those costumes. Maybe by that time, it won't be too bad.

    Yeah, I don't care about seeing the animals at that event, either.

  • exactly, its going to be hot as balls in the costumes during the day and there is going to be 10 million people there!  I have seriously been upset about this all day.  we LOVE halloween here in our household and of all the stupid things I really wanted to make this our tradition and now the damn zoo has gone and ruined it (LOL), but seriously I am sad sad sad.  (that is however very cool that the zoo wrote you back karen!)
