    What’s going on with PBCs!? Over on the other side of the slab the younger generation loves the game and the older set hate the noise.

      the younger generation loves the game and the older set hate the noise.

      That only makes sense if the “older generation” is the silent/greatest generation because 95% of people I see playing pickle ball are baby boomers.

        I live in colombia and it’s the same here. I ride by a pickleball court almost daily and it’s always retirees playing. Never seen a young person playing.

      Somebody leaked his plans to put up hotels and pickle ball courts, etc. in state parks and people took that personally, especially because they were no-bid contracts. Basically everyone told DeSantis to fuck off with this plan, which he tried to distance himself from while simultaneously firing the whistleblower.
