I thought the plan was them's that could get there early (ie me) would stake out a spot at the main gate for them's that need to park.

If the gates open at 8:00am, what time do they really open? Would you be able to make it from the structure to the gates before they open?

Would you suggest a later time and just dealing with the wait?

The gates do open at 8. Generally, one can make it from the structure to the gates by somewhere around 10 'til (assuming you were clever enough to arrive before the 7:30 opening and are near the front of the usually slow-moving line of cars).

I guess it all depends on just how many people we're talking about. How many already in line, how many showing up from the structure. If there are 5 people in line, and 15 people appear to join them, I personally consider that a bit rude to those that would be behind us.

If it's more like 10 people already in line and 5-10 people joining the line, not as big a deal.

My suggestion is to try to get as good a head-count and time-estimate as we can. If the numbers look reasonable for slipping a few people into the entrance line, then go for it. If it's looking like it's going to be a mob of people rushing in from the structure, or that too many people can't guarantee they'll actually make it before 8, we might want to pick a rally point inside the park.
