eaf Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 3 hours ago, GrilledSteezeSandwich said: Seniors skiing is actually saving the sport right now. They’re the people with the most money and free time. And cheapest passes. Heard a couple complain today that their pass got a $20 raise to $80 something. Hope they won't have to pull extra money out of their IRAs to pay for it. Otherwise they may need to pay income tax on it as well, which may make skiing totally unaffordable for them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that on Facebook as well. People questioned why the big increase. Personally I think giving seniors a discount is good but maybe like 10-20%…I know at Bridger bowl they raised the age of the free season pass from 70 to 80 because there are so many 70 something skiers. Elderly folks are the people with the most money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he goes on about how med law in PA says it must stay at home bla bla and you can get a DUI for it bla bla. Happen two or three times now he always opens with "I'm not busting ya but I gotta say put it out......." I countered with I think the bars has all you described well handled and Blue makes a killing on it. He just shrugged with no sensible rebutle 🤣 Edited February 21 by DiMe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he's wrong and I'm not on his bad side. Each time has been a peaceful conversation of the exact same lol. He could just go the other way like the rest of em.

RidgeRacer Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 (edited) Cracks me up…meanwhile there’s more alcohol consumed on the lifts at blue mountain daily than there is at a St. Patrick’s day parade in Boston and they don’t enforce that. They just put giant trash cans out to accommodate it. At least be consistent. Edited February 22 by RidgeRacer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They better not do away with that. Detailed list of inclusions posted. First tracks is listed for Camelback. Full pass for outdoor waterpark, discounts only for indoor. 5 buddy passes is nice. Nice that at Blue it seems to include 2 summer tickets for adventure park, bike park, laser tag and lift ride, each, instead of choose 2 tickets for any of these activities. https://www.skibluemt.com/poconos-pass/ 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is tempting to bump up to it for Walter and I. Would have to see what the child option is at Camel, the site only mentions contacting them for adding on child access, and their pass page isn't active yet. Even without adding any access for Grayson, 10 buddy passes between us would easily cover the days I would ski with them there. And then the summer tickets are likely shareable. I could take them up to the Camel waterpark a couple times in the summer and only have to buy one ticket. But on the other hand, we all had Dorney passes this past year, and I only went with them twice and their mother took them a couple more times, and that's far closer, lol. So it's a tough sell to myself to claim that we would actually motivate to make it up there in the summer. The Blue summer stuff would be easier, though 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got massive small dick syndrome, he's got 400lbs of shit and like a plate carrier for the lot at blue. He looks to be out of shape with his big ass gut so already he ain't chasing shit but add in all his crap and he's like a security bag lady. He's nice enough but for sure is a 100% respect my authority type because that's literally all he has going in life. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
