So the ikon pass for someone who is 22yo is like $550, but any older and it's $750. Does anyone who's gotten one know if they require proof of ID or anything to use/buy one? Im 23 and that difference is kinda big for me cuz #minimumwagegang

Is committing fraud worth $200?

It's probably relatively easy to cross reference your age given all the internets knows about you.

If you've ever bought a season pass or day pass from an IKON resort using your real info, they'll know immediately.

Yeah, I know someone who did the same thing. Probably easier than lying about your age.

College pass is a bit different, there's no real way to verify. Youth pass fraud is easy to catch. My buddy is the ticketing manager at one of the lodges here in Mammoth and caught a bunch of people buying youth IKON passes with new birth dates after having bought Cali4nia Passes (our old pass, dumb fucking name) for years with their real birthdate.

Overall, I'd say to go for it if you think you can get away with it.

Dude what? Ikon college pass IS VERIFIED. How have to select your college and the system instantly checks a database and if you're not on the student database for that school it won't let you purchase.

My buddy tried this same thing... got denied, then got arrested at the coffee shop next door. Haven't seen him since.
