skinnyshrek 0 #1 November 8, 2006 Boogies are mainly there for jumpers to jump and socialize after hours. Sometimes, when whuffos show up drama and lots of it sometimes happen. Should boogies be restricted to jumpers or should we add the obnoxious drunk retard who doesn't jump just so we can have a laugh.http://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?

NWFlyer 2 #3 November 8, 2006 That's something that Lost Prairie has struggled with for years. It has become known as the place to party and gets overrun by locals (many of whom are underage) from miles around, most of whom have absolutely no connection to the dropzone or the jumpers there. It changes the dynamic in a negative way for the jumpers. I don't think that *all* whuffos should be prohibited from boogies (otherwise we'd miss out on some very cool SOs/friends of jumpers), but for larger ones where a huge influx is a problem, perhaps there should be a policy where whuffos who are present are required to be guests of a registered jumper and/or register themselves (with a different boogie fee structure). I noticed as we came back from the hotel on Saturday night at SDA that there was a guy who seemed to be monitoring the entrance to the DZ - he waved us on when we showed him our wristbands. Was the DZ trying to limit access only to registered folks?"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

skinnyshrek 0 #4 November 8, 2006 I always do, but it seems everytime someone brings a whuffoe of an ex jumper lets say something fucked up happens.http://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?

skinnyshrek 0 #5 November 8, 2006 I believe thats what trey was trying to do. Same thing at Rantoul no wrist band no entry The main problem i have seen is when a jumper dates a whuffo and then they break upo yet the whuffo still shows up at partieshttp://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?

But this sounds an awful lot like drama and I know you like to avoid airing that on dropzone.com, Lee. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

Only after hours when the booze starts flowing. I remember down in z-hills last new years. They had to take a local off the dz before he got his head caved in. He wanted to fight someone i guess. Thought we were all idiots for jumping out of planes blah blah blah.

adventurechick 0 #14 November 8, 2006 I don't think all whuffos should be prohibited from coming to boogies. I invited two of my friends to come hang out at the boogie and they both did tandems and one is already signed up to do AFF!! I do understand how a bunch of 15 year olds or locals could be a problem, but not all whuffos are bad to have at a party!

Two car loads of 18 or 20 year old assholes looking to fight= bad press for a Boogie. Trey did a good thing with the wrist band entry. Whuffos were welcome. Pay the fee & your in.

happythoughts 0 #17 November 8, 2006 Whuffos ruined Quincy. The annual Knights of Columbus picnic there does not allow non-members. Yet, the locals complained that they were not allowed to our private party. So, they came in. The local underage kids got in and the locals complained that their kids were drinking. Cops were added to stop their kids from drinking. The cops said they needed more cops and then we were funding the entire budget of the police force. Then the cops became the problem. We will see no boobies here. This is the mid-west. If we see them, we club you. (It's on video) So, our party became their-party-that-sucked and we left.

cocheese 0 #23 November 8, 2006 Yea, because stupid human tricks should only be done by trained professionals such as ourselves. We can't be watching out for whuffos who try to be more stupid, i mean crazier than us. And if one gets drunk and tries to steal a rig or something... now we have to throw a perfectly good organ doner out of a plane at night without a rig on his ass over some swamp when we should be partying.

CSpenceFLY 1 #24 November 8, 2006 QuoteWe can't be watching out for whuffos who try to be more stupid, i mean crazier than us. I know you ment this as a joke but in reallity you bring up a valid point.The guest of a jumper ,unless visiting to do a tandem,do not have a waiver on file at the DZ.If they are injured or killed the DZ is wide open to a lawsuit.I can tink of one instance where the DZ was saved,so far,by the fact that an individual had done a tandem in the past and there was a waiver on file.

Andy9o8 2 #25 November 8, 2006 That's a damned good point. If a whuffo is going to be on boogie/DZ premises while jumping is going on, (which would have to include nighttime, if night jumps are being conducted), it might not be a bad idea to develop a form of waiver and insist that they sign it, or else "no entry". (P.S. - you'd better make sure they're sober when they sign it, because "I was intoxicated when I signed it" can be raised as a defense to being bound by a contract.)
