Tickets to see STS-53 were available from the ticket office a week before
the launch. The facility opened at 3am, some 4 hours before the launch to
admit those with tickets either for their vehicles or for the bus tours.

I can't speak for the other launches, but we certainly watched the launch
from the causeway courtesy of Spaceport USA.
