Titanic and airlines are more analogous to the Disneyland in regards to being private businesses. Bachelor is MY hill but I don't have a strong opinion either way. I get both sides but if I'm buying a lift ticket, I'd upgrade to the fast pass no problem on a busy weekend. Mid week or during shitty weather, there's no need.YellowSnow said:
The logic against seems to be that a resort like Bachelor operates on US Forest Service land, so there's a bit of a egalitarian thing going on here. Disneyland being private property can gouge the fuck out of everyone as much as they want. Shit I spent like a $100.00 alone on blended margs at California Adventure this past August.BleachedAnusDawg said:So, same thing as the Disney "fast pass" for Disneyland.
Speaking of Disneyland, what can we do @UW_Doog_Bot to get them to start selling drinks in the OG park?
No crowds on weekdays.

**(c) @TheKobeStopperski"ride" midweek because they don't have a jerb or they work weekends, then there's the group that ski mid-week because they're so rich they don't have to work or work whenever they want. Or the retired. -
I don’t see myself doing it. The chairs I’m usually on - Northwest and Outback - never seem to get that busy even on the weekends.BennyBeaver said:

Skiing is a rich man's game even for the pours. I paid $1,079 for my season pass.PurpleThrobber said:

I don't think you're a SR throbber yet, but Silver Mt is only $499 for a season.

$49 to skip lines doesn't seem that unreasonable to me, if lines are an issue. I'm not a skier and deaf, but I don't see the big deal here.

That would be a cunty thing to do. If I’m on the fast pass and get shit talked, im giving them a thumbs up and getting on the chair. If I’m with someone talking shit to fast passers, I’m bombing down the hill and ditching them the rest of the day.YellowSnow said:

It’s absolutely a rich man’s game. I went to a certain college and a key reason was to snowboard frequently. Problem was, a day at the mountain and gas, weed, eating, etc would have me eating ramen noodles and too broke to go to bars on the weekend. I basically gave it up and haven’t gotten back into it since. One of these years, I’m getting back to it and will probably even switch back to skiing like I did as a child.YellowSnow said:
