F Vail

One good thing of Vail Resorts Inc spending Swiss francs in Switzerland is
there’s fewer beans left for their beany counters to use to screw more places here in the states.

Tis sad when we export Vail Resort Inc.’s business model to Yurp.

It ain’t fittin, it just ain’t fittin, ... it ain’t fittin.
 
Written by their PR team in Broomfield.
Yup, the word “snow” was never used in the article.

So an Egyptian billionaire and Vail Resorts Inc are spending mucho dinero in a valley in Swiss Alps...that has lots of skiing.

Definitely a first.

The Tom Clyde article is actual journalism, as opposed to the previous Park Record article about Andermatt that Tiro linked above, which included this tasty beancounter quote: "Vail Resorts anticipates significant EBITDA growth over time from the expansion of the village bed base, the mountain investments and capacity expansions, and the inclusion of the resort on the Epic Pass products." Glass half full, at least VR is transparent about its motivations.

On the other hand, there's this: "Vail Resorts announced it has purchased the Andermatt-Sedrun resort in Switzerland. I’ve never heard of it, but it appears to be big."

Dude, seriously?
