What planet are you from, where playing hockey at an empty rink at a Catholic college is equated with priests riding roller coasters at theme parks?

Yes, I agree that it's rather unbecoming for priests to be seen this way in public. Now, it wasn't the worst possible venue as there's nothing intrinsically immoral about it, except of course the immodest dress everywhere in the park (given Florida heat). Imagine a picture snapped of a priest at the park where there's a 95% unclothed female behind or next to him in the picture frame.

This seems to show the same type of attitude toward the clerical state that you find in the Novus Ordo. So the SSPX is now opening their windows to the world, following the tragic example of Roncalli et al.

If a priest wears black to show his separation from the world, nothing says 'the world' like a garish, Godless theme park full of essentially silly amusements. Recreate by all means but going to such an establishment for that purpose is as about as silly as it gets.

For Our Lord, yes. For them, Not so much.

I have no issue with envisioning Our Lord, during His earthly ministry, engaging in wholesome recreation with His Apostles, or with joining a pick-up basketball game (or whatever the first-century Palestinian equivalent would have been) with a group of youths.

Scripture tells us very little of how He spent His time outside of preaching and performing miracles.

Whether it's appropriate or not/sinful or not, when I see that, it reminds me of the actions of Novus Ordo "priests". I can't think of any sedevacantist priest that I knew/know that would be caught dead on a rollercoaster.

Even though recreation is necessary for most people to keep a healthy mind and body, it is a sort of weakness.

Since Our Lord was perfect, it seems more plausible to me that he wasted no time at all with recreation. All of his acts were full of merit and beautiful. He did no useless things, or less than perfect things.

Our Lord probably spent all his "free" time praying.

I imagine that the only possibility for Our Lord to engage in some sort of recreation is if it was an opportunity to teach something. Just like when He went to bankets. He was obviously not there because He wanted to enjoy good food. He was there to teach.
