Won't miss the seat saving at all.
Good for you but hardly a solution to an obvious problem for many of your neighbors.

When you get a little older you will find that some problems do not have solutions. That people who are selfish and aggressive will not change. That more rules and laws won't make the situation better. It is not illegal to save seats so seats will be saved. It is also not illegal to take seats that are saved. Human nature will then appear.

I have NEVER seen Rocky and the Rollers. I am still very happy here.

The seats are only saved in the eyes of the saver and his friends. those who are ignorant of the rules, and the timid.

An excellent Common Sense reply, short to the point..Well said !

As for Rocky and the Rollers..they are very good if you like that type of music. As for " Rocky " he is a accomplished drummer, I watched in amazement his drumming skills at The Frankie Avalon show.

The people who are saving seats and also the people confronting these people saving seats need to realize that they are doing so at their own peril. All it takes is running across one nut case like that stalker in TV that just shot up his neighbor's house! Now you take a nut like him, then throw in the present intense heat combined with boiling tempers and this could be a recipe for disaster!

This also goes for those impatient drivers around TV who feel like they have to lay on their horns or make hand gestures for only a few seconds of their inconvenience. A few of those that come from big cities up north that are used to throwing their weight and tempers around need to remember that they are now in the south (and a retirement community) where the pace of life moves much slower. Also southerners love their guns and you can almost bet with certainty that most people are carrying them, legally or not. All it takes is for one armed hot head or emotionally disturbed person to be on the receiving end of your frustration!

The overwhelming majority of people here in TV are very friendly and have come here to leave their prior worries and cares behind BUT you always have a few nasty ones that will never be able shake their bad habits and attitudes. I choose to avoid trivial confrontations like this knowing how fast pride and anger can escalate matters. It's not worth it folks.
