The 2nd gal tried for about 15 seconds, seemed longer, and the guy in front of me just stands there and watches. He's 6'2"+/- 30's with a small mower battery in his cart. I'm thinking, " Look idiot, why don't you help the lady or give her your cart?" I'd had enough, brushed him aside and climbed under the railing to help the gal. One of the straps that ties the toddlers in the seat was wrapped up in the other cart. Compress the carts against each other - presto - strap released. Took me 2 secs. I felt like taking him out at the knees. Yeah I know, hot head hot heat hot head but c'mon. Then he complained that he had to pay a core charge for the battery. DUH! Stupid
16, OUR HERO!!! , on behalf of that poor lady, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. That could of been any one of us, and you sir are a true gentlemen!
