The Theaters are operated by a company connected to The Villages - I found it online at one time.

We've had people trying to sell frozen meats, lighting rods, landscaping services, you name it. The gates are absolutely useless...anyone can get in. We've had cars on our street broken into...of course you'd never see that ever reported in the Daily Fun.

It was once popular in a bygone era...
You realize of course, that you are a tiny drip of water in a big pond. Just because you and your friends never went to KB doesn't mean others didn't. There are thousands of people here with a huge variety of interests. KB was very popular up until the Developer decided to remodel it and change the format. People would go there for dinner, then stay for music and dancing. And when the Square closed up for the night, people would head into Katie Belle's to continue the partying. Very popular night club, and probably a pickup place for singles I'm guessing.

Rumor had it that it was a great place for a certain type of clientele and people living outside TV.

How about some creative responses once in awhile vs these shots at posters. This is a forum after all.
Yes, a forum for those who live here (and those considering living here)...

For those who moved away, who consistently lob grenades? Not so much... Of course, YMMV...

From what I've read, it was already losing money when they decided to remodel the place. And just because it was "popular", that doesn't mean people were spending money there...

Aren’t you worried about the conversations getting a little incestuous?
