WHAT????? People were coming and going all day, it wasn't as though if they wouldn't get a seat if they just showed up. They had their towels, bags, water toys, etc all over. The bad girl in ME wanted to go and dump their stuff and sit there, but Don said I couldn't!
Saw the same thing when there in February. Folks would come out & claim their chairs & spot early in the a.m. It could be a group of 4, 6, 3. Some days the chairs were never used at all!!! Usually they'd show up mid-afternoon, when they'd show up. I also wanted to yank their towels & free up the chairs for people who were stuck w/out one. It wasn't always the same group doing this but an assortment of people. When there aren't enough chairs to go around, hogging them when you're not using them is just plain rude.
