Metal Detectors at the gate.
Enjoy all the shows, even the dog and cat show is good.
The 360 / 3D turtle movie is worth seeing once.
SeaWorld rescues more animals that the treehuggers who complain.
Quote History Quoted:
Sea World has always skirted the line for me. I don't like the circus, but have no problem with zoos. It's always been a balancing act between educational value vs. pure entertainment. Being exposed to marvelous creatures, that we may otherwise know little about, has its conservational merits. Watching an elephant dance in rhinestones and a tutu has little value to me, so I (and many others) have not attended a circus in many years. They are now going out of business. Sea World, however, has taken a leading role in whale research and rescue throughout this state, and many others, this offsets some of the circus-like aspects for me. Those that don't see the value are free to not attend the parks or support their work, but the organized attacks against them, complete with the propaganda and misrepresentions typical of leftist movements, are going too far...IMO. Every time the left gets a "win", it only emboldens them to go one step further. First it's the whales at Sea World, then it'll be the lions at the zoos, after that the monkeys and rats used for medical research. Soon enough, you won't even be able to keep a pet dog or cat as your own personal emotional slave. You'll have to provide Fifi and Fido their own private bedrooms and baths, with a minibar and a fridge. Anyone with a dog over 20lbs will need a 1+ acre lot to provide a humane recreational area, etc. Roll your eyes if you must, but if they had their way, this would all be true.

I don't think Orca shows are a right left issue. Those animals did not belong in a tiny ass tank. SeaWorld miscalculated.

Considering that Orcas were hunted when SeaWorld opened their doors, you might be on the mark.
They did their job so well that people hate them now.
