Before I get stated, I would like to apologize to those who love All-Star Sports. Don’t get me wrong: I like many parts of this resort but while I do enjoy sports, this resort just isn’t my favorite among all the choices available. As the name implies, this resort is themed with the sport enthusiast and athlete in mind. There are open areas for practicing routines and really getting into a sports-mindset! In fact I remember one morning starting quite early with cheerleaders practicing outside our door. This resort attracts many sport groups from around the country such as cheerleaders, dance teams, soccer and baseball players, etc.
Several years back (ok a lot of years – she’s 31 this year), we took our 18 year old daughter and a girlfriend of hers for their first adult trip. We booked an All-Star Sports room for them while we stayed in the French Quarter. They were on their own so they had to get themselves up the morning, figure out food for the day (we supplied $20 each every day for them to eat on), keep up with their room keys and park passes. I had purposely booked Sports thinking the girls would enjoy being around people closer to their age. But it turns out that neither of the girls were sport enthusiasts and there were more families with a little younger age group. In looking back I can see the reason why, with the football field, the more open areas bright colors, the younger generations really enjoy it!
