You might be a gaper if... you own an "I skied Outer Limits" T-shirt.

You might be a gaper if... you drive to the mountain during a snow storm in a Camaro with summer tires.

You might be a gaper if... your hat has antlers.

What if your helmet has horns attached?
Yup. Definitely gaper. Jester hats are way gaper too.

Hopefully kids are exempt...I like them for the kids because it makes it easier for me to find them on the slopes.:smile:

Oh yes. I think kids are exempt from most gaperness.

What about the baseball hats with the pull cord that make the hands sticking out of the front of the hat clap?

You've ever posed for and actually bought a photo from an official ski area photographer...

You have a wad of lift tickets from every single ski area you've ever been to hanging off your jacket. :lol:

I take offense to the double pole plant one. The trusty double pole plant has gotten me out of a few sticky situations. If you use it VERY SPARINGLY it's OK. I have also been known to wear work gloves in the spring.
