Default Mosquito Attack Last Night

After pickleball last night we headed over to Edna's on the Green for dinner & drinks. Got there around 5:35 PM or so. Found a table near the band & dance area, nice comfy spot, ordered food at the trucks, drinks also. By the time I got back to the table with the food around 5:55 my guests were SWARMED with mosquitoes. At first I thought "they must be over-reacting", but I soon learned otherwise. The little monsters were actually landing on the meat part sticking out from my sandwich! I had 4-5 on each arm immediately, several on my neck, legs, etc. I've never seen such a mosquito feeding frenzy.... Needless to say we had to bail out. Had some in my car on the way home, too.

Anyone else experience similar, there? Ideas? Do they spray? Any prevention possible, aside from avoiding the area altogether?
