why are some resorts such bitches about gaper day? Snowbird wasn't letting people in costumes on the lifts and brighton wouldn't let them into the park. The shit was weak.

At resorts like that, gapers are their primary income. It's probably overboard to ban people from dressing that way, but I can see why they do it.

im skiing at the bird for the most part this year and its a gaper haven. I can understand the not wanting to lose business idea, but honestly, just let us ski. I kinda have a feeling the majority of the tourists there are staying in the cliff or some other lodge so they aren't really losing any business.

isn't the point of gaper day just to have fun and piss about with your friends wearing dumbass costumes and snowblades, not to specifically make fun of other people? idk, whatever, thats how we do it over here- last year we wore blades from 10am, skied all day and partied till 4am. still wearing blades. epic day/night!

Haha still weaering the blades? Kids do that at my hill but it's because they cant get the things off.
My hills income is 95% gaper at least and even they have a weekend where the first 50 people in costumes get free lift tickets.
All times are Eastern (-5)
