How are Universal Crowds for Presidents Day Weekend?

We tacked a few extra days onto our trip in February 09, which puts us at Disney over Presidents Day Weekend, which I've heard is horrendous. I thought I heard somewhere (a podcast maybe) that the crowds at Universal were much lighter than Disney for the holiday weekend and I'm thinking I may plan to spend the weekend there. Has anyone been who can confirm? Thanks!

Hi Melissa!! I've never been during Presidents' Week, but I've heard it wasn't bad. I have been to both WDW and Universal during Labor Day weekend, and the Universal parks were less crowded.
