Liftopia Kicks Off Super Bowl Sunday Ski Deals
<p><img src="http://0.tqn.com/d/skiing/1/0/U/k/-/-/canyonstour200.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" align="right" />In honor of Super Bowl Sunday, <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&zu=http://www.liftopia.com/">Liftopia</a> has come up with up to 50% off at more than 80 resorts for Super Bowl Sunday lift tickets - including 50% off at Copper Mountain, 47% off at Squaw Valley, 27% off at Canyons, and 25% off at Mount Snow on the day of the big game.</p>
<p>The slopes are empty because most people stay indoors all day for the game, and so resorts are willing to offer up some great discounts to get you out there. Liftopia has really done their homework on this one and it's a great chance to get the family out for a few turns and still get back to watch the big game.</p>
<p>Hey, why not call all your ski friends and have a tailgate party in the resort parking lot - save a bundle, ski on some pretty empty slopes, and cook up a storm. Remember to Ski Safe and Party Responsibly.</p>
<p>Here are Liftopia's <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&zu=http://www.liftopia.com/game-day-2012">Super Bowl Sunday Ski Resorts Ski Deals</a>.</p>
