So I have heard (take it for what it’s worth) that there will be no soft opening. Disney wants a big line for opening day to show the media that Galaxy’s Edge is a hit. A soft opening could reduce opening day crowds.

Went to AP Preview yesterday, completely loved it :)

So.... odds of a Soft Opening this weekend?

I sat with a couple who ordered the rancor teeth this Sunday. So they were available that day.

I don't remember where but I saw someone who went this weekend post a photo of the menu and there was a sketch of the flight served on the rancor teeth so I think they are officially on the menu now, especially since I know for sure that the drinks with the mugs have been added.

That makes sense, but I was really just joking about the "loophole" they created by using the word "drink" and then adding a "food" with booze. I'm not looking to get plastered, but this comes so close to the opening of F&W that I figured some folks may get lost looking for EPCOT and end up in Oga's looking for their fix. But I have a question about something else you mentioned - the lack of beer flight on the Oga's menu at MGM. That was the main thing I was looking to waste spend my money on in the Cantina - all of the cocktails look too sweet for my taste, and all of the beers look good. Was hoping to get a flight for the tasting and souvenirs, then pick my favorite for Round 2 (plus, if possible, the jello shot). But the photos I've seen do not have the flight on the menu. Does anyone know if the beer flights have been added (or are going to be added) to the menu by Opening Day?

At least when I went they said that 2 drinks was more like 2 items maximum. So if I got one of the "jello" items it would count towards my count. Granted I went in the afternoon during CM previews and the menu wasn't finalized yet (for example, the drinks with the mugs weren't in the menu yet and neither was the beer flight in the tusks and there were no food items). I imagine that going in the morning one would be able to order food items and still have their two drinks.

Remember - it is a 2 DRINK maximum. They haven't limited how many of the jello shots you can buy.... :hungover::hungover::hungover::hungover::hungover::hungover::hungover:

That does make sense. I suppose someone could keep buying drinks and say “you can’t kick me out I just bought another drink!”

If you've ever dealt with a 3 hour wait to get into trader sams on a Wednesday afternoon, you know why they might want to kick people out of here when there isn't a ton to do in the land. Otherwise people sit there milking there one or two drinks for hours and just enjoy the ambiance.

To ensure crowds turn over at a reasonable rate, I expect.

How very odd 🤔 I don't quite understand this measure.

TeriofTerrorAug 18, 2019

Yes, I'm afraid it is. Here is an email I received for my ADR in September:
