Grow up you inconsiderate people. The ruined 5.50 worth of drinks did not bother me......but .....the lard a88 with the dog should consider himself lucky that there were ladies and children nearby.....or maybe there would have been a boogity-shoe going on in the street ( naw the juice wasn't worth the squeeze ).....The nice man in the wheel chair did apologize......Said........:"I am truly sorry that fat a88 was in such a hurry,,, (and offered to replace our drinks) then he said..." slobs are slobs and some slobs bring their big dogs to the squares."

Mr Fixit - The kindly man in the wheel chair got it exactly right! (IMHO) There are jerks in this world - and some own pets. Those pet-owning jerks give the rest of us pet owners aggro too!

The TOTV people with doggies who bring them to the squares who have posted here all agree that crowded nights are not a good choice - unless the pooch can be carried or you stay in your cart.

(who, if Finley did this to you, would have offered to replace the drinks and given you a heartfelt apology)
