This past Saturday, I convinced to my wife that we go downtown Park City to watch the local Rotary’s 6th annual Shot Ski after two years of Covid related hiatus. The weather was fabulous and the crowd roaring in what should be a dead time in our shoulder season.
On our historic Main Street, Parkites and visitors came together to set a new record in the town's back-and-forth shot-taking rivalry with Breckenridge in Colorado. This year, 1,340 people tipped back High West Whiskey shots using 515 skis linked together.The group effort surpassed the previous “unofficial” record of 1,333 shot-takers in Breckenridge in 2021, and we defeated the Coloradans as it should, in a sweet revenge victory.
Everyone including both of us were delighted by the show. We showed up too late to enter the event but heard that the Rotary might have raised well over $35,000!
Now, it will be Breckenridge’s turn to try to reclaim the top spot this December at their own Ullr Fest...
