A full blown Grotto  Marathon, then a real Grotto start (big whoosh, etc.) 
then a real Rocket.  Then a real stop.  
Also, the one I saw  (and I assume Scott also) this year took place at the 
expected time for the  true post-Marathon eruption – many hours after the end of 
the  marathon.


 
Not quite. Number one, I was not there for the prior activity, but I was  
told that the Grotto start was earlier than expected -- hours but perhaps not  
"many hours" after the end of the marathon. And number two, after the Rocket  
there was not a real stop -- the eruption continued for a total duration of a  
"normal" 2 1/2 hours or so (without another Rocket).
 
All of which I guess means -- something a bit different..
