The policy then was that you had to have a same day boarding pass along with your Lounge card. However, since they have been going to biometrics, I have never been asked for my boarding pass at SEA, PDX or LAX; just go in, put my two fingers on the reader and receive a nice "welcome" from the staff. Maybe they are going back to asking for the boarding pass.
Removing access when I was not personally traveling was the
nail in the coffin
for my Boardroom Membership.
