Spangler Family Alone in MK?
Me and my wife are debating this occurance. I can find videos of them on You Tube and they are the only ones in the park, but it appears to be early in the morning, she is saying that they had the park to themselves for a few hours.
I on the other hand say that since it was the begining of YOAMD they got it to themselves for the entire day.
On the flip side I can't see Disney shutting down the entire MK for one family.
Does anyone else know what I am talking about or can they share any information in this matter.
Thanks,

I believe one of the Dreams given out was an hour (maybe 2, but I'm pretty sure it was one) alone in the park for one lucky family.
The way they did it was as the family went through and finished the attractions in one land, Disney would then open that area of the park to everyone else.

They had the park from about 5 or 6am until the park opened for guests at 9am. Each land opened after the family had visited. They did NOT get the park to themselves for the entire day.
Wife wins 
I was one of the CMs on Main Street that welcomed them in
