Your not correct friend....................

Funny! But somebody has to get us off of that latest dog poop thread...

I'm not exactly sure whose side you are on, but it sure made me laugh!

BUT WAIT! Somebody else saved that butter.

When I first saw saved seats, I looked around for the candid camera. My thought was, YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME. Then when I see comments from folks that think it is OK to rope off 20 chairs a half a day prior to an event, that defies all common sense and logic. I am 100% against saving even one chair.

I agree Golfingnut!!!!!!!:BigApplause: Seems so unfair to others

We went to see Quartet in Spanish Springs on Saturday(great movie). We were in the square about 3:15 pm. There was to be a kilt event at 5 pm. People had already tied chairs together to save. I watched one women take a sweater and tie 2 chairs together and then lay something on 2 other chairs. I looked around and and saw several other groups of chairs saved. Made me think of the posts I have read here. That it's a no-no. But I guess people don't really care what is said on this board. She saw me watching her and gave a grin and ran off. We sat there deciding on where to eat for awhile and enjoying the air. She had yet to return. When we came out of the restaurant the square was filled. There she was with her group. Nothing is going to stop this, I guess.

No, nothing is going to stop saving chairs. No one really cares what is said on this board. It is a good way to vent but is not going to make a difference for seat savers, dog poopers, round-a-bout drivers, or golf cart terrors. It is still fun to read what is on each other's minds.

Agreed.

The last time I went to the square, a fella had a row of about 10 seats roped off. I sat down smack in the middle of them. He came up and said "I'm sorry these are saved". I acknowledged that and said "if someone arrives while I'm sitting here, I will move...until then it's my chair" . I stayed for a few hours...no one showed up.

way to go!!!

:bigbow:

IMO it is one thing to save a seat for a spouse or a single guest. Holding a row of 10 seats is quite another. There is always someone who wants to push the limits at others expense.

Perhaps TV should only allow 1 seat to be saved in general seating for a guest/spouse.

Those who choose to reserve more than 1 seat... must use the (smaller) reserved seating section. Cost $10 per seat per event. They can be purchased in advance.

Reserve section seats that were not purchased are open to anyone once the event begins.

I can't wait until you get here. You have a lot of good ideas, but you will soon see that almost everything has been thought of and a lot of good ideas are just kind of run over by stubborn ol...I mean opinionated residents.

It would take an army and tanks to keep some people from saving seats.

Whats the big deal.If this is such a big problem,maybe the villages should get rid of the chairs and have people bring their own.

I don't think getting rid of the chairs is a good idea.....the reason we have our music and entertainment at the squares is because we love it and we love to share it with visitors...day trippers, relatives, anybody.

Those people wouldn't think about chairs....plus "elderly" ( that means anybody older than me, BTW) have enough trouble just getting there, let alone dragging along a chair!
:highfive:
