A lot of exaggerations and half truths.


There's a big party in every town square every night — little booze huts everywhere. Happy Hour lasts like four hours. Two-for-one Rumritas, and the strongest margaritas I've ever had."


Happy Hour was never 4 hours and booze has not been 2 for 1 since the covid.


There are train tracks going through the center of town that are completely fake. The railroad never ran through there, it's there to seem folksy.

The one block stretch of rails in LSL doesn't look anything like a real train track. There was a real spur from Wildwood to Leesburg running next to 44A.


They also wield an insane amount of state political power. The developer built his own airport in the town just so he didn't have to bother going through customs at the Orlando Airport,"

The developer did not build an airport and if they did we would have paid for it. They did manage to get customs to staff Leesburg International.
