You are not the only one. I used to work at the fee booth at Sandy Hook, and folks would try to use there State Park Pass. I got yelled at a number of times because people refused to understand that they couldn’t use it there since we were operated by 2 different organizations.

Yep. Statue of Liberty, Alcatraz too. The park is free, but you gotta pay for the boat.

When you turn 62 and get the senior pass you get a discount at least at Sandy Hook.
