A few years ago I was watching a football game at Gator's Dockside in Spanish Springs when a false bomb scare was called in.

The whole place was evacuated. When I realized that we weren't going to be let back in before the game ended, I went across to Margarita Republic and watched the rest of the game. When the game was over Gator's was still closed so I went home.

The next day I went back to Gator's to pay my bill. They found it and I paid. I asked how many people came back to pay their bill and was told almost all of them.

So although this sort of thing might happen, even here in The Villages, it seems to me that most people are honest and will go out of their way to do the right thing.

By the way, I left an exceptionally large tip for the waitress because I knew that she had lost some income that day.

The guy that called in the bomb threat was caught. It was the boyfriend of a waitress who wanted her to get the day off. I hope it wasn't the waitress that I tipped.
