How old do you have to be to work at Busch Gardens Tampa?

Anyone here work or know someone who works at Busch Gardens Tampa Florida?

• I need tickets by tonight and I can't afford the regular prices, this will be my kids last day of spring break and I wanted to surprise them. I had a cousin who worked there and I know you get free passes throughout the year. I'm just looking for someone who doesn't care to let them go for cheap, if they're not going to use them. Thank you so much. I live in the area and can meet at a public place.

• Answer:

  I know many people who work there, however you wont be able to purchase any tickets. For one most parks will fire or suspend staff who sell their free tickets. The tickets are a gift to staff and not designed for the staff to make money off of. They can give them away for free but cannot charge. As far as for free they do not get many and as you so stated they are expensive so people save them for friends and family, not strangers. I get ten a year and they are all gone before the year is half over. I suggest that either you just do not go or grin and bear it and pay the price. If it is too expensive perhaps there are things you can cut back on for a month to cover the cost. By store brand food rather than the expensive stuff, eat out less, carpool, etc, etc, etc.
