And yes, it does get frustrating sometimes when it seems some people are purposely walking in the middle of the road to make someone wait for them. But hey, that's the way it is! No horns is the rule I was always taught. I think that's pretty universal around the grounds.
When I was fortunate enough, during the Poberezny days, to have the use of a golf cart during the show, I was asked to make sure not to pass by walkers if I had an empty seat. There were days that I even spent most of the time helping people get over to the museum from the Brown Arch. I could not make it to AV this year, but last year I was saddened to see many more golf carts and VWs running back and forth with only a driver. I tried to flag a couple of 'em down and they just whizzed by. I know some of these are now bid-on and perhaps people feel it is only for them. That is a sad state.
