You can get into Sea World or Busch Gardens free if you are an Active Duty member, Fire Fighter, Police or EMT, along with your immediate family.
I took my family to Sea World Orlando this weekend, and we all had a blast. Program runs through the end of the year. You also get some coupons for the park, I used the 20% off a meal at any of their restraunts. A really good deal for any military in the area.
Their press site doesn't mention the military, but all their paperwork and everything at Sea World did. Anyways, FYI.

Police Officers, Firefighters and Emergency Medical Workers Recognized with Free Admission
Anheuser-Busch Companies, Inc. and its independent family of wholesalers today announced a tribute to America's police officers, firefighters and emergency medical workers. Starting Oct. 5 these American heroes and members of their immediate families can enter SeaWorld, Busch Gardens or Sesame Place free by showing current identification and proof of employment.
The offer is valid every day for the balance of 2001 at SeaWorld in Orlando and San Diego, and Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay. SeaWorld San Antonio, Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Va., and Sesame Place near Philadelphia - operating on seasonal schedules - will welcome America's heroes on weekends through the end of their seasons.
"This tribute is a small way we can acknowledge and thank the more than 2 million men and women in this country who have dedicated their lives to public service," said August A. Busch III, Chairman of the Board and President of Anheuser-Busch Companies, Inc. "In this difficult time, it's important that we recognize their commitment, dedication and courage by offering the opportunity to share time in our parks with those closest to them."
On the first visit, each hero will receive a customized Passport valid for free, unlimited admission every day through December. Guests accompanying heroes will receive complimentary admission on the first visit and a 25 percent discount on every subsequent visit through December.
The Anheuser-Busch Foundation also has donated $1 million to the American Red Cross for relief efforts to aid victims in the New York metropolitan area. In addition, the company has provided nearly 10,000 cases of canned drinking water and more than 40,000 cases of 180 energy drink to aid rescue workers in New York City. Beverages donated by Anheuser-Busch were distributed by the Salvation Army and the American Red Cross.
