    Parking at Norton Walmart

    Went to "Stupid-Walmart today and was getting ready to pull into a handicapped parking spot when out of nowhere in zips the chevy pick up truck and takes it away. I thought, oh well, got beat out of that spot. But when I took a better look, there was a man got out of the truck with hunting clothers on and no handicap tag or placard. I watched as this young man(early 30's)maybe walked into the store. Well, I thought long and hard about whether to call the authorities on him for parking in a handicapped zone with no authorization. I had his tag number but decided to wait. I went on into walmart and ran into the dude doing his shopping, getting ready to go on some "hunting" trip from what I could gather from the items in his buggy. I finished my shopping and thought maybe he had a handicapped person with him, but he didn't. Now I never called the authorities on him, but I did leave a nice little note thanking him for taking a handicapped spot away from a person who really needed it today.(Some days I need to park in them) as my legs were absolutely killing me. Sometimes I don't bother using them as I figure to leave the spots open for the elderly and such. Just because you have one, doesn't mean you should abuse it.

    I put this on here for the specific reason that I hope he, or someone who knows him will let him know. I got your tag #. It is a "vanity" tag saying "OHYEEAH" He also had several decals on his truck identifying it as being affiliated with some 4-wheeler club in Clintwood. :mooning:

    Law enforcement does like to catch handicap parking abuse.
    One time with a big fine might be all it takes to break this habit.

    On a side note, maybe this guy did possess a disabled parking tag, but didn't want to display it while out shopping for his hunting trip (and thus getting caught doing something he's not supposed to be doing) ... ?
    Just a thought. Stranger things have happened.
    You'll shoot your eye out.

    Yeah, I thought of that, but if he was gonna play it that way, why not play it completely and park in a regular spot.

    Somebody on the ****enson County Discussion Board post vehicle tag #'s who are illegally parked in the fire zone and handicap parking at the post office in Clintwood. I'm pretty sure that I have saw this tag on there before.

    I'd report them, if they had a legit reason, then let that be cleared up by authorities. I can't stand that.
    What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, so you get what we had here last week which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it.

    I hope he gets what's coming to him, and a little more. People like this who continuously abuse the system will one day be taken down, I guarantee you, and I can't wait until he gets it after your story centennial. Sounds like a selfish fool who has no respect for anyone but himself.
