chaoticbiker Posted February 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 Guess I should double check with Stratton to see if my registration is good, otherwise it’ll be an Epic day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Ace* Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Having a lame ass cap on what should be a great celebration seals the deal that Stratton will be a resort I don't visit again anytime soon. Oh you can buy your ticket in advance today...only $108 now. Bargain off the $130 you would pay at the window... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soybomb Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 Agreed. Stratton has always been a place where i felt more like a customer than anything else. its got no soul. For those interested, there is a a podcast series called "I Built This" centered on entrepreneurs and the stories behind how they built their business from scratch. Jake was one from a few years back and it was pretty interesting stuff. His best line was that he loaded up his station wagon with 38 boards on one of his first sales trips....but he came home with 40. A guy that bought two on an earlier trip handed them back and said something like "nobody is ever going buy these". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
