Yes, it is a comedy routine, but her Father really did tell her about the restriction. He just wanted to keep the CRAZY daughter away from his friends!

I understand the humor and don't mind but I wish the same people who like telling these isolated/hyperbolic stories about The Villages would also inform their audience of the how many participate in the senior games, how our softball teams are national competitors, etc etc, etc

Who took it seriously? It just seemed mildly amusing (at best) and rather pointless when based on a false premise.
If, as some suggested, she later mentions that she found out there was no such rule but her folks didn't want her visiting... funny because it's possible.
She could have mentioned that her folks liked to attend "Swap Meets" with other couples. When she told them she didn't know they enjoyed flea markets they rolled their eyes...

Anyway, she's usually funnier that that.

Sounds like joke was on her. They were saying please don't stay! We can only take so much of you. In the nicest way they could figure out.

Of course, you could just find her web site and set her straight. That way, she'll know she can visit her parents next time.



When we first bought here, I told my wife grandkids weren't allowed to spend the night. Unfortunately she found out otherwise.
