Everything in TV is not perfect and making postings ALL the time that it is does not paint a true picture

maybe not true. There may have been others upset that are not on this forum or just choose not to voice their displeasure. I wasn't there, but lets wait until we hear more details.

Just something to keep in mind in the grand scheme of things.

I was one of the volunteers who stood in the sun for over 4 hours so I can imagine what people felt like walking around in it. However, when you come to an event like this one remember it was at the Polo Fields and most people know that the area has literally no trees by the field other then on the border of the property so they should have been prepared with sunscreen and water. I do admit that there should have been more vendors to accommodate the crowd but there wasn't. It was a good event for what it was to honor the Combat Veterans and to give them the credit of protecting our country and if this money helped that cause more power to it. I couldn't get over how angry people where that couldn't get into the VIP tent, well, they did pay a lot more to be there so they were entitled. There is always a VIP section at most golf events so for the people complaining "Get Over It"

Out of TV---wasn't there but if I was in TV probably wouldn't have gone knowing the event would be hot, little shade and draw a big crowd. We just don't enjoy (our experience) under those circumstances but happy for those that do.

Just hope they raise a lot of money for a good cause. Do you suppose there will be an accounting for how much was raised? Often you never hear.

That was the number attending as reported in the article in the Daily Sun.
My God you ask a lot of questions.

Gracie, you are being asked to get your head out of the sand. And stop with the perfect postings all the time.

Thats not what was said. If the intent is to stir the pot, try to be accurate.

I think almost everything here is perfect or as close as anyplace is gonna be.

Some people are ALWAYS NEGATIVE and some people always sound like bullies and they are anonymous too.
