Default Once a bully...

...always a bully.

Guess their mothers and/or fathers never taught these people good manners.

But even with the snowbirds away, the age-old controversy of saving seats at the squares, has hardly been dormant this sizzling summer.
Residents frequently mark their seats prior to the first cocktail being served at 5 p.m. Colorful ropes, ribbons, string and cushions have long been the resident-recognized way for Villagers to “reserve” their seats, particularly at Spanish Springs Town Square. The “reservations” can sprout up on chairs hours before the first song of the evening is performed.
Officially, “saving” seats at the squares is prohibited in The Villages.

Saving seats at the square twice ended in arrest this summer.
Most recently, a 65-year-old Water Oak resident is alleged on Sept. 9 to have pushed a 77-year-old Villager who dared to sit in a seat “saved” by the Water Oaker at Spanish Springs Town Square.
When the Villager attempted to sit in one of the “saved” seats, (Name of person) informed the Villager that the chair was “taken.” When the Villager ignored him, (name of person) “jumped up and pushed (the man) back and jammed his fingers into the upper chest area,” of the Villager, according to an incident report from the Lady Lake Police Department.
(name of person) told police that the “chairs were taken,” but denied pushing or poking The Villager.
(Name of person) was issued a notice to appear Sept. 29 in Lake County Court to answer to a charge of misdemeanor battery.
This week, a 70-year-old Village of Santo Domingo man paid a nearly $300 fine in Lake County Court after pleading no contest to charges of disorderly conduct and resisting a police officer.
