Looks like those who were born or married in 1976 will get a free season pass in 2014. Guess who's wife was born in '76?

Mine!  Wow, what a great way to offset my daughter becoming old enough for a pass.

I saw that...  too bad  I am a "blue hair"....  LOL..   

I graduated from high school 76...   

Guess that doesn't count.!

I think it's cool they are doing it... but why this year? 
It's not an anniversary year of 1776 or anything.  Just seems odd

[History Buff]

I thought the same thing, Swoosh.  Someone mentioned keeping the centennial alive, but I don't see that and don't know what centennial it would be.  I would understand a recognition of the Civil War anniversary, but this seems out of the blue.

Not that I'm complaining.  I'm looking forward to the festival.  I hope they do more with it than a generic "celebration of America".  I want to see rich, meaningful events tied to it.

Well...hmmm...that's not all that appealing to me.  It was here, celebrated, and over with.  I don't know what else to say about it.

yea 76 doesnt include me or mine in any way at all. Im not sure how the 76 year ties in to anything in 14. I just wonder if they just ran out of ideas, and thats what they came up with.   Could be that an overly large percentage of the SP buyers will be 38 (or were born in 76).  Or maybe the opposite. Maybe a very small percentage (if any) was born in 76.  Im sure it has something to do with the surveys and personal info obtained.

OR maybe,,,  the new additions/ modifications is going to be ALL fireworks related,,,,  therefore  a "celebration"?   

don't know just guessing at this point

That's my guess, too. New fireworks factory -- we shoot fireworks to celebrate Independence Day, etc.

It seems very oddly placed and if it had a tie in to the GG redo, wouldn't you want it actually done first?5

[ithai]

I missed it by one year. I was born in 1975.

The only thing I can think of is the official announcement might be tied into a show somehow?!?

At first I read it as sprit of "hwy" 76. But doubt that is what they mean.
