does anyone know, do you literally have to show them your phone with the saved text message or can you print out the message with the code and show them that instead?

by the time i get to stratton I could have a new phone and phone number. i could always enter again but figure there is some cap on the number of available tickets...


I just went in to see what would happen if you fill in the "lost your message?" box. It sends you another text. So I guess you litterally have to bring your phone with you.

Entered my wife's info...she won too.

this is crafty. They're getting all their potential customers cell phone numbers.

and carriers. perhaps they're looking at putting up a new tower?

it'd be a pr nightmare if they actually called or texted without permission.

Well, if you don't ski a certain number of days, or if you check that you have been to Stratton recently, then they are not interested in you. But by now you probably have already won.
I've never been to Stratton and I won. And my ski days are pretty low compared to some of you.

actually if you read the fine print they WILL text you unless you reply STOP to their message

That does kind of suck that there are no alternative options for entry.

I thought that too. But on the other hand, if they allowed for it to be printed, they'd get 11ty billion duplicates.

Last year it was printed. You could only use the offer once and had to show ID. Each had a unique code so it could be tracked.

That seems to make sense. They could probably put a barcode or something on it.

I guess now I'll have to bring our phones to the ticket window....which are completely useless to us once we cross the VT boarder. Stupid "SOS" emergency only mode. :evil:

In for a Stratton gathering! :)


Let me know if we plan something....the GF and I may be interested in joining....but we will probably go down to visit Stratton before February.
