So, I'm shooting a pistol match in New Hampshire this weekend and one of the guys in my squad is from Florida. He's about 75 and does the reverse snowbird thing now that he's retired. July and August in New England. He's got a 20 acre horse farm somewhere near Gainesville.

We're talking about gun clubs in Florida and the second I mention that I rented a place in The Villages and will be doing it again next year he got very animated and listed 3 things about the Villages that he was sure were true about what goes on in The Villages. Even though he's never been to The Villages.

2 of the things I'd heard before and were related but the third was something new to me.

Any guesses on what the 3 things were?

Highest STD rates in the State...

Loofas on Golf Carts...

Key parties?

High rate of STDs

Swingers abound

Sinkholes all over the place.

Why would we villages care about someone opinion that has never been here. I heard lots of things about northeast. But I never been there so I don’t care.

I am a native Floridian, born in Pompano, raised until I was 18 in Ft. Lauderdale.

I expect it had more to do with the person than to do with being a native Floridian.

Excellent point. For some reason certain individuals ignorantly repeat these ridiculous falsehoods. My own grandsons brought this up to me one time and I informed them that these are ridiculous falsehoods perpetrated by some young people who suffer from ageism and dislike to see older people enjoying life. When they came to visit they saw the true Villages. 98% of the residents are lights out by 9:30 PM. Hardly a soul is out past 10PM.

3. rumors about costco coming to the villages

I am ALL for people believing all things negative about The Villages. I hope they think there is a phenomenally high rate of STDs and loofah/key parties, etc. I hope they are dissuaded from coming here or looking into it. Then maybe the building will slow down a little bit and the mass numbers coming down will slow as well.

It's like my summer home, Tennessee, I make sure everyone knows ALL about the bugs and the humidity. We have enough people there as it is.

[Decadeofdave]

Yeah, I hear this all the time from people that have never been here. I just laugh because there is no way to describe the place. Unparalleled.
