Classact....Mike 17 Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 Ah yes, it's that time of year again, when all the giant toddlers come to the Fort to exercise the only way their tiny brains know how to communicate with the others in their tribe by honking the horns on their rented golf carts. Holy mackerel, DW and I were reflecting on what we love, and don't, about the Fort this time of year, and while November is generally peaceful, Thanksgiving (not unlike spring break time, Halloween, etc) brings out the golf cart crazies. While driving to our loop last night we witnessed two carts, after dark, in front of us in our car, running parallel to each other, honking their horns and trying to take selfies with the other cart in the background. They sailed right past the hitch/unhitch areas with never a thought to pull over to allow the 5 cars behind them to pass. I'd be SO in favor of the Fort disabling the horns on all rented carts. And perhaps requiring a basic intelligence test prior to renting the carts. Then there are the ones that fly by our site, going the wrong way and going way, too fast, sometimes after dark. Last night someone's dog nearly got run over. In 90%+ of the cases, these are grown-ass men that should know better, with the balance being teens. On a more positive note, we made the trek to the MK to do something we've never done in well over a 100 visits, and that was to watch Wishes right up in front of the Castle. It is, of course, mighty crowded. A couple from from Italy notice we were looking for a place to stand, and they kindly offered a tiny bit of real estate in front of them. Sometimes it's the little things make a difference. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. -Mike Avatab.... Steve 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LONE-STAR 370 Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 And most of the time a rented cart. They don't own it they don't respect it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

True, but I've seen plenty of gas powered customized ones being operated by inconsiderate jerks also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
