How Rude!

In the words of Stephanie Tanner I would like to say, "How Rude!" to the owners of the CCC in Waterloo.

Every Tuesday Ayron plays indoor soccer. An elderly couple that I have known forever (used to go to the same church) come every week to watch their two grandsons play with Ayron. D had some serious health issues last winter and is lucky to be alive. I seriously am amazed that he is still alive. His wife, S, is spunky. Well, due to his age and health, D has a handicapped plate. Last night when they got to the CCC, there weren't any empty handicapped spaces. S parked as close as she could, but they were still forced to walk a good distance in the rain, wind, snowy mixture we had last night. On her way into the building she realized that one of the trucks that was parked funny across a handicapped space didn't have a handicapped plate or a tag hanging in the front window. Once they got inside, they told all of this to their daughter. Their daughter, obviously upset, went to the front desk to ask that they find the owner of the truck and ask them to move it. Turns out the truck belongs to the owners of the CCC and they were there picking up their kids.

Seriously people, if your legs work just fine and you don't have a handicapped plate or tag, park and walk! Especially at a place where there are only 3 handicapped spaces. Don't take the last one just because you own the building. Stop and think about the 80 year old man who is coming to watch his grandsons play. This man lives for Tuesday nights when he can see his grand kids excel at something they love. YOUR LEGS WORK, SO USE THEM!

I don't know why I am so worked up about this, but I just am. It is plain rude! Had it been another player I would have just accepted ignorance, but since it was the owner, come on now! HOW RUDE!!!
