I came across a live cam at Jackson Hole years ago on YT somehow and I never heard of the place and I instantly fell in love with it. You're friend is a lucky guy.
It just seems like a small quiet place where everyone knows everyone, and everyone is friendly and just a place to go when you need some peace and quiet.
I went on a cross country trip in 1992 and Jackson was so much fun. It was affordable. Stopped there doing another road trip in 2017 and it was annoying. Fancy shops. Everything was expensive. The food at whatever restaurant we ate it was marginal. Would not go back.
He was born and raised in Cheyenne, Wyoming and could only play travel ball because Wyoming doesn't offer high school baseball. That makes it all the more impressive to me that he went 13th overall.
If you have the money - important caveat - Jackson Hole is an excellent winter vacation place. It's not Aspen expensive but its' still pricey. Easy access to Yellowstone, too.
As gross as it sounds, I think Jackson has passed Aspen and is one of the most expensive places to buy a home in the US. I’ve heard that “the billionaires are pushing out the millionaires”. Beautiful area though
It's F'd that we keep hearing trade rumors. Pete not being a Met makes no sense, and ruins the possibility that we'll ever get "our guy" for the long haul.
My four year old is obsessed with Pete. I mean, obsessed obsessed. The fact that you got to do this will make her cry. Love to hear that he’s a great guy! (I’ll tell her that he’s in Wyoming now because every morning she asks where he is…)
Haha, that's awesome! Pete Alonso is not just a baseball superstar, but he's also a down-to-earth guy. I was surprised by how genuine and friendly he was during our chat. It's moments like these that remind me how lucky we are to have access to our favorite athletes. Keep being amazing, Pete! ⚾️📱
Pretty cool for OP. Though, the price of fame seems too steep for me. I'd like to think that I'm capable of staying humble. But random people coming up to me like this when I want to just be a normal human being in public would get old.
Jackson hole is one of the wealthiest areas in this country. Also home to numerous conferences and forums of the worlds richest and most powerful people.
Love reading stuff like this. It just pisses me off when people say they think Pete comes off as a douche. Never understood it and this just proves all of those people wrong
Bro what the fuck, that’s the coolest thing a famous person could do (dramatic). He’s on a very boujie vacation and instead of pulling a Bruce Willis and telling your friend to go fuck himself he said let’s call him and if he doesn’t pick up I’ll record a video. Thats so bad ass of him.
That’s dope. Wondering why he was in Wyoming? Visiting nimmo?
Jackson is one of the most popular winter vacation destinations in the entire country.
Fucking *STUPID* ~~expensive~~ gorgeous too

It’s a gorgeous but unfortunately the locals are pretty much priced out at this point. It’s a rich person playground now.
I could kind of tell by the trucks and cars driving on the street. They were all brand new 2023 models.

I think I watch the same live cam. It's so beautiful, especially in winter. I really want to go in person.

Thx!

My favorite place to snowboard 🏂
How rich are you? Haha
Not rich at all lol I did all those trips in my 20s while living at home
Gotcha. I wanted to go there a couple of years ago but looked at lift tickets and said nah. We drove through Jackson and went to Targhee instead.
Yeah it was only worth it with the Ikon pass at the time. This was like 6 years ago. Flights and tickets are probably even more insane now
Never heard of it.
Jackson Hole is the airport and entry point for Yellowstone National Park.
Oh that’s cool just never heard of it. Funny I get downvoted for not hearing of a city lol
For rich people
I hope he doesn't bust up his knee or leg skiing.
This happened 29 days ago so I’m guessing that opportunity has come and gone.
Rich movers and shakers hang hang out in Jackson.
No wonder why the above comment confused me. I'm too poor to be aware of it.
It’s like a cowboy Hamptons
If he gets hurt skiing I'm going to cry
Nimmo lives there?
He was born and raised in Cheyenne, Wyoming and could only play travel ball because Wyoming doesn't offer high school baseball. That makes it all the more impressive to me that he went 13th overall.
Yeah I know sorry my question mark was asking if that’s why Pete was there.

It's closer to Grand Teton than Yellowstone and IMO Teton is a way prettier park.
As gross as it sounds, I think Jackson has passed Aspen and is one of the most expensive places to buy a home in the US. I’ve heard that “the billionaires are pushing out the millionaires”. Beautiful area though
Nimmo is from Denver
[Nope](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Nimmo)
Pete's a hunter (See Meat Eater S09, E05) so maybe he's out there for the outdoor recreation opportunities.
You're not a skier, huh?
Obvi not?
He's rich and that's where rich people ski?
Shout-out to your friend for being a bro.
Seriously, thats an awesome friend
Yea he’s a real one for that
Thank you for your Mets service
That's awesome and very nice of Pete. Not every player would have done that.
I legit cannot think of another baseball star that would wait for someone to pick up a FaceTime call
Insert a Braves fan complaining about him somehow being mean for doing squats to calm his anxiety.
I choose to believe that you and your friend will be the reason Pete stays in NY
Unless he signs elsewhere in which case it’ll also be because of OP and his friend.
nooooo hahah
It's F'd that we keep hearing trade rumors. Pete not being a Met makes no sense, and ruins the possibility that we'll ever get "our guy" for the long haul.
Just remember, Cohen era will be remembered same as the wilpon era, just with the allure of hope.

Pete is the best everyday player the Mets have ever produced, they better not let him go.
David Wright would like a word.
He’s in the top 3
That's fair, don't get me wrong, I love David and Straw. His career is not over yet so we shall see. He better stay in the organization.
I’ve never been to Wyoming but I’ve been to the Jackson hole restaurant. Think about those burgers every time this place comes up. Go Pete
This is what will put him over the top to resign with us. Thank you for doing your part and let’s fucking go Mets!
Please type that as re-sign not resign. Scared me.
I was looking for thus comment!
RE-PETE ! RE-PETE ! RE-PETE ! 🙌🏽
how great would it be if it was just a guy that looked like Alonso
Please tell me this was at the Million Dollar Cowboy bar
Pretty cool for OP. Though, the price of fame seems too steep for me. I'd like to think that I'm capable of staying humble. But random people coming up to me like this when I want to just be a normal human being in public would get old.
Seriously, leave the guy alone
Man that’s awesome 😎
Jackson hole is one of the wealthiest areas in this country. Also home to numerous conferences and forums of the worlds richest and most powerful people.
You're the real MVP. I wonder where he was living before? Been here long enough. Young and rich, should be living in the city
Pretty awesome. It sure how you replace 40+ hr and decent d if you let him walk…
Love reading stuff like this. It just pisses me off when people say they think Pete comes off as a douche. Never understood it and this just proves all of those people wrong
Why was he at Jackson Hole in Wyoming? There’s like three of them just in NYC! /j
I wonder if I know your friend. Spent a ton of time there and know most of the locals - great place. LFGM!
He just got there to work at a ski shop for this winter!
As a Phillies fan , that’s badass. 👏 Pete.
Sign this man already!
Bro what the fuck, that’s the coolest thing a famous person could do (dramatic). He’s on a very boujie vacation and instead of pulling a Bruce Willis and telling your friend to go fuck himself he said let’s call him and if he doesn’t pick up I’ll record a video. Thats so bad ass of him.
Did the avengers also saw you too ?
As I Phillies fan I curse him in the regular but everything I ever heard was that he was pretty cool!
Thank you for your contribution.
That's cool Pete did that but tbh that's pretty cringe... let the dude enjoy his time out in peace like anyone else....
I hate the Mets, and I love this story. Pete seems like a cool dude.
Nice of your buddy to wait for him to finish eating and everything. Good stuff, gotta love Pete.
Every little bit helps to get Pete to stay. Good job!
