I heard that after Philadelphia the Pope is coming to The Villages. He had a special Pope Golf Cart made just for the occasion. I know I'm going to be saving a seat early so I can get close.

That was his original plan. But he cancelled when he found out there was no striping on the paths and someone put a governor on his cart set at 20 mph. He was also afraid that 8 inch garden gnomes were a pagan symbol, that he would be eaten by a coyote, that he'd step in dog poop, that the tour bus would drop off in a parking lot, that a line dancer would belt him and he'd get creamed in a roundabout. And he thought all there was to worry about was world peace (and climate change).

I hope they clean up all the dog poop before he gets here.

You read it wrong. The headline read the POOP is coming.

I heard he's gonna be at Barnes and Noble with Ann Coulter.

Actually he was worried about all the fights that would break out over saving seats to see him.

He's ditching his robes and fancy hat for shorts and a t-shirt and a baseball cap, probably the Angels. For dress up he's going with dockers, a golf shirt and a Saints cap.

Guess he'd be the snow bird of all snow birds when it comes to tying up traffic. Wonder if he'd use a gas or electric cart…….uh oh, no I've gone and done it.

Too much capitalism in existence here; maybe he is looking for a winter get away!

You really hit all the key reasons why he won't visit, and I'm still laughing!

Sometimes though, the Popemobile is a golf cart. Photo-8128818.111368 - Houston Chronicle

Sometimes the Pope does have a golf cart when he gets pooped out.
