First time we were in TV it was just a day trip. No invitation, we weren't anyone's guests. We just drove over, took a trolley tour, had dinner and wandered around the square.
No we didn't play golf or attempt to use the pools or even drive on the cart paths. We were just outsiders visiting, as we've done in hundreds of communities around the world. Everone we met was friendly and made us feel comfortable.
Had we been given the bums rush, it's not likely we'd consider TV "America's Friendliest Hometown". Not likely would have returned and eventually bought a home in TV.
Rules are fine and should be enforced if they negatively affect your lifestyle. This should not be heavy handed. Who wants to live in a police state? Sometimes we need to lighten up a little.
