He probably saw you were a Packers fan and he’s from Chicago.

I'd ask your neighbor what happened. Always two sides to a story, sometimes three, lol. I have seen some lawn guys on thier riding mowers thinking they are on gokarts on a race track.

Best advice I've heard yet. Be calm and kind and ask your neighbor what happened. For 3 years now, my neighbors lawn guys have been running over one of my sprinkler heads and damaging it. I've replaced it 4 times now. I finally stuck a potted plant right next to that sprinkler so they will avoid doing that.

Thats the way these people are they have no Balls to come to your face and are always going behind your back talking ****. One day we will read neighbors jaw broken and in ICU for his retirement,
People mind your own business.

wasn't looking for advice, I already know what happened in detail, as for your issue you really didn't need the potted plant there are other methods to stop the sprinklers from being broken like that.

A wise person shared this with me, maybe you will find the same wisdom in these words. “He who angers you controls you”.

This is an issue between you and your neighbor. What’s your point in spreading the negativity on social media? And don’t say cause you needed to vent. Even that should be kept between you and a close friend or two.

Such a great neighbor to have, just wanted to thank him for a great well done job!

If my neighbor ever did that I'd go right into the house and scratch his name off my Christmas card list
