Red Bull 1976 Games Qualifiers

Author: Brady

30 Mar

The Red Bull 1976 Games qualifiers are THIS SATURDAY, April 3rd, at The Canyons Resort in Park City.

Check it out:

Teams sporting vintage gear will compete in two events, “Snowbladecross” and “Old School Air.” Teams will be judged the Red Bull way: event performance, creativity, and overall 70’s style. Prizes will also be awarded for best costume and team mojo. So grow (or stick on) those mustaches, squeeze into your one-piece and get ready to party like it’s 1976.

**Teams of college students will receive FREE day passes to the Canyons to be able to participate. Otherwise, the only cost to participate is a lift ticket at the Canyons**

What inspired this wackiness? More than 30 years ago, Denver was awarded the 1976 Winter Olympics. Then, a coalition of activists and politicians campaigned against it and the games moved to Innsbruck, Austria, instead. Well, it’s time the year 1976 had its day state-side!
