Note that 35k tickets already sold and gen admission still available at $10/piece....for a spring game. Deion is gonna make back the money the school paid for his whole contact in the first year.
Stop trying to trigger the Deion Hate Train. Excuses incoming... :crapstorm:

Let's not get ahead of ourselves too quickly. Remember when Lane was predicted to win a natty last year?

Steamboat, Snowmass, and Crested Butte are by far better mountains. Hell, I'd take Wolf Creek over any of them for the on-mountain (less so the apres). But they're all 3 hours+ from Denver. And when you live in Denver, you can't generally do that every week. So if you're looking for something nearby Denver, BC is where it's at.

"2 years ago" → this was your issue. That was the "coming back from COVID" year, where everything - including all the infrastructure - was wonky. Waits at BC were still shorter than the rest of the nearby big mountains - Vail was averaging hour-long lift lines at the bottom that year, and the mid-mountain lifts weren't much better. All because of COVID worker slowdown, as well as Vail drastically dropping its pass prices (which led to more people signing up than they anticipated).

In short, the COVID BS was a lot more than just reservations on the mountain for lunch. I wouldn't judge any mountain by an experience from 2 years ago.
