If he cannot control himself he should be asked to leave but that would happen only if The Villages says so since the Square is private property. We just do not go or stay when he is there. And, we are not the only ones. It is the merchants who lose!
He's there just about every night. He is drinking water that he pours from a gallon water jug he keeps in his pack. He doesn't have confrontations with anyone. He's not asked to leave, because most people enjoy his excitement. Just his presence gets people up on their feet dancing. And dancing makes people thirsty. And thirsty people buy more drinks. He's good for business. In fact I wouldn't doubt it for a moment if I learned that he was paid to be there. It'd make sense.
