Morning EMH at MK: Go or Stay Away?

[mickeysworld]

Do you find the MK is "more crowded" than "normal" when the park has a morning EMH and would you rise and shine and take advantage or do you tend to stay away from parks with EMHs? Family is visiting and they have no park hopping option on their tickets. What do yall think?

Without the Hopper option, I would stay away. Crowds do seem to be much heavier at EMH parks, especially when MK is EMH. If you get in early and have the option of hopping out once crowds build, it is a good option and you can get a lot done. But if you can't hop out or don't rise (or stay late, depending) to take advantage, the crowds can be especially heavy.

Stay away, very far away! MK is a zoo on the best of days, add EMH into the mix and those saving money by not getting park hopping and it's a recipe for disaster.

I have found the park hopping a necessity, listing it as an option is a money grab by Disney.
