Default Re: Nice person in The Villages

When I first took the golf cart to Saddlebrook Rec Center from Village of Belvedere one Wednesday morning a few months ago, I managed to get there in the most abstruse way, but I did get there. However, when I left there, I got so turned around that I ended up heading in the complete opposite direction. Had I continued long enough, I would have reached the Georgia border....

I came up by a golf cart with a license plate reading 'The Godfather,' expressed my confusion at directions, and he offered not to give me golf cart trail directions which he said could be confusing to a newbie, but to actually lead me to where I was going (whew!). I then asked him about the license plate. He took off his sunglasses and hat and I almost fell off my golf cart seat. Turns out he actually does performances based on his uncanny resemblance to Marlon Brando in his 'Godfather' role.

Yes, people here are extraordinarily friendly and helpful. Not just Koolaid but the Scout oath as well. Welcome to TV, Aceskaters!
