Hollywood After Hours

A few wks ago, I saw the sign at the ticketing booth when we were at Resort World.
It said there would be admission tickets for "Hollywood after hours", from Thursdays to Sundays (For June only), ticket sales start at 6.30pm.

It immediately striked me that it would be a perfect chance to bring my mum in there for a walk, since she wouldn't enjoy any of the rides, and we would not want to pay $70 for the admission ticket for now.

So, we went today.
I have no experience of how the ticket sales response will be, whether there will be any limit of ticket quantity and whatsoever. We arrived at 6.30pm, and was a little taken aback by the snake queue at the ticketing booth.
As we stood at the end of the queue, suddenly, someone approached me and asked if I wanted to buy their 4 tickets. WHAT! I couldn't believe my ears initially, but my hand had alrd stretched to their tickets and swept them away from the owners. Anw, they explained that they mistakenly bought too many tickets.
I need 1 more ticket!
and immediately, I walked to the beginning of the queue, targetted a stranger, and pleaded with him to buy just 1 more ticket for me (of cos i showed him my existing 4 tickets).
In 10mins, I got my 5tickets. YAHOOO!
Looking at the snake queue, Im delighted. heh heh.

We walked to the gantries for admission, but had to join the queue.
We will only be allowed to enter at 7pm.
There was again a very long queue behind us after a while.
This is so Singapore. :)

Anw, long story cut short, we had our dinner in USS (one of the pizza store), and with my sista who had already had her fun in USS before, she explained to us the things we saw and also recommended our dinner.
I didnt expect us to stay in there until almost 10pm, but we did.
dine, took pictures and shopped.
U asked me if the $2 was worth the hassle and all?
hmmm...the good companion and quality time spent is priceless.


Note - It is coming to end June soon, if u are planning to visit USS with "hollywood after hours' scheme, my advise is, take ur dinner first. Buy ur tickets after 7pm, there will be no more queue. Walk at leisure after that inside USS, so u do not need to squeeze with the crowd for ticket sales and dinner.
