Replying to Vail resorts is rediculous

So apparently I can't ski again at any vail resort until I take a safety class... for bonking a sign??  didn't even knock the thing over, but apparently i am just a very unsafe skier for snapping a little sign at about 3  MPH?!

has anyone else experienced this type of bullshit from Vail staff?  I had no idea you couldn't bonk signs.... you can do whatever the fuck you want on the mountain where i normally ski.  weird.  i'm venting. blah
