Beat the Clock: DHS Closes Early Tonight

Well, whaddya know, Hollywood Studios fans — today's the day to beat the clock, 'cause the park wraps at 5 PM tonight while a Gartner conference takes over from 7 to 11. The best hour is the 8:30 AM Early Entry for WDW hotel guests. The last week's averages had Tower of Terror around 60 minutes and Slinky Dog Dash around 53, so rope-drop your favorite and work the rest while standby lines are thin, then hop over to Magic Kingdom after 5 — they're open 'til 10. While you're there, the first Lakeshore Lodge scale model is on display at Walt Disney Presents, and even ol' Goofy can't miss the Tower of Terror's restored lightning-scarred walls. Gawrsh, make 'em count!
