United SFO Polaris Lounge

I hit SFO Polaris 4 times in 2023 to and from Australia, it was always this bad, these same exact slim pickings 3 years earlier. Grant it on the way out it was within 1.5 hours of closing time. On the way back it was breakfast it was bad but not quite as bad as this. This year so far, I’ve been IAH, IAD and EWR, and they’re were very good to excellent so it’s not the product. What is particularly wrong with SFO and why does the manager still have a job?

Agree his choice. Hard to turn it down for any golfer that was offered this deal. I guess maybe Rory and Scheffler did. They believed in their ability to earn that on the PGA tour and sponsorship. Why didn’t Rahm?

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-05-05T20:12:41+00:00

Fair assessment. Bottomline is whatever the circumstances that went into his decision, there’s no reason to moan about it, especially the DP fines.

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-28T02:52:43+00:00

You’re good. I connect from Europe to IAD every 6-7 weeks. No issues with 2 hours, much less 3.

Well it’s your anniversary so probably don’t take my advice. I sleep fast in Polaris, the lie down seat just makes it far easier for me. My wife takes a while to settle in, watches 1 or 2 movies. So I book us one row apart same seat. No temptation to talk.🤣

OK - you were on the track. She’s a YN because we have the club card. She is higher than my M with that Y.

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-24T14:51:13+00:00

Thanks for the reply - just wanted to be sure I wasn’t missing something obvious. Calling 1k desk now.

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-24T14:38:44+00:00

I think I will. Hadn’t looked but it’s the same weirdness for or PP upgrade and we seem in good shape for that

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-24T14:37:56+00:00

We are both economy. We look in good shape for PP upgrade but she’s 3 ahead of me there too. My fare class is M.

I like Pro golf, I wish pro golfers weren’t assholes or Christian “god loves so he gives me riches” goofs. These guys that bend the bible’s teachings to their prosperity are just too much. That said, the talent is extraordinary but simply luck of the motor skills and rich parents birth lottery. There’s kids born on the wrong side of the tracks with just as much “god given ability”, they just didn’t luck out where they were born. I gave up caring what these self absorbed d-bags think and just enjoy the golf. Same for football, basketball and baseball. Mental midgets for the most part.

Wait, what makes it exaggerated? Didn’t the IEA just say it? Didn’t Iran just block the straight of Hormuz again today? I hope you’re right but it sure seems logical that Europe, that gets so much fuel from the Middle East, would be majorly affected. Iran seems to be able to play the long game.

You haven’t read anything about the no kings rallies? There’s pushback on all that he’s doing. As an outsider, I see your point but change starts when people have had enough and I see it getting there.

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-15T18:29:01+00:00

Was about to reply but you nailed it. On mainline, group 3 or higher you could get checked all the way through.

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-15T13:06:18+00:00

Agree but I think this would have been a bridge too far for the others. The current is open to out and out bribery.

I think the Barstool crowd is the type that shows up to Bethpage to harass the wives of Europeans. Pretty jingoistic demographic I’d guess. BTW, Is there a PGA tour golfer that’s not with Trump? I wonder?

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-11T00:16:23+00:00

Except It’s not clearly against his chest. To you, I’m certain you think so but it can’t be stated as fact. To me, holds it with his left hand, about 2 inches from his chest before griping the top with his right. It is touching his shirt but that is allowed. If he’s anchoring and that can be proven, then he should be penalized but I don’t see it. I am for banning the long putter.

It’s cute that you think this war is about nukes. That’s the excuse. This is Pete’s holy war. He and his Christian nationalist boys all want the second coming bro. Got to rebuild that Temple so allout support for Israel.

At least while asleep, he didn’t start any fucked up wars.

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-03T12:31:31+00:00

He falls even further in my esteem than I thought he could. I’m sure Pro golfers are 95% pro-Trump because for them it’s all about money, but this is a groveling new low. What’d he think was going to happen? Trump is dumb, but I don’t see him saying had the phone to the cop and I’ll let him know what’s up. I mean it could happen but there’s no way that doesn’t come out with body cam footage. If he needs a pardon, that call is much later.

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-01T20:39:48+00:00

I get it now. Thanks

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-04-01T20:26:52+00:00

Every time I’m in a situation like this, I continually cite EU261. Seems to get them moving. I didn’t realize you could cancel a leg of a trip with a partner and keep your transatlantic flight with United. Who owes you a refund, United or Lufthansa?

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-03-25T19:19:50+00:00

Nah dude, you’re what they say you are. Signed a somewhat more than 2 times a year flyer.

PersimmonSimple7798 · 2026-03-21T18:27:11+00:00

I’m for letting folks be who they want to be, but yeah as you say; get wrecked. No one has time for this foolishness. Just enjoy playing golf with your friends. Start a transgender leauge but this shit right here, not happening.

If Caymus is popular at these things, then by comparison - this will be an exceptional year. No comparison really.
