Same. Other than passes and a joint. 

If our definition of joint is the same then I’m right there with you.

Not a house and not in PA.

big tea drinker? 

[FrntPL8rScott]

Yes sir - We like the Wegmans unsweetened Japanese tea - add a dropper of methylene blue and off to productivity town

Also hit up the Blue tent sale, and picked up ex-rental ski/boot setup for both boys for $100 each rather than give Buckman's $200 each for seasonal rentals this season. Grayson is probably ready for better equipment next year, we'll see how he goes this year. Walter seemed to lose a lot of interest in in last year, so we'll what this season brings for him. Grabbed some Blue logo t-shirts and hoodies at 70% off too.

Hit the Buckman's tent sale on the first day but not until afternoon, only grabbed a pair of pants for Grayson, he's on a big camo kick lately.

was it a shit show?  the first time i went we walked right in, and i scored some new bindings for $75 and they mounted them for free.  the next year i waited in line a bit, and bought nothing.  next year i passed, but saw huge lines to get in, so it hasnt been on my radar for a while.

Big line to get in, waited about 15 min to check out. They probably let in too many people, so moving around wasn't super great, but was manageable. The thing they continue to drop the ball on is managing the checkout line, once it forms it just completely destroys the ability to move around. Not much they can do about that though except use the area over by the bar to send a line to, and I think they would probably worry about merch walking off if they let people out into that area without paying. 

I would rate it a solid fart show. Maybe shart, but not total shit show.

Certainly not as much of a shit show as Camelback's new 6-pack bubble lift failing inspection and needing to drop a lift tower and replace a cracked footer, lol

Right? lol. At least Dopplemayr was already on site modernizing the other lift. 

Bottle is a nice touch, but I like the waterslides in the background as location receipts

Same. Seeing the line go from the back of rentals to the parking lot by the MSE doesn't look like a fun time.

Not sure if a house is considered “gear” or not?  I’ll let the masses decide…
