Years ago, my town put in a noise ordinance. Whereas tennis comes in at ~50dB, pickleball comes in at ~70dB. Our Swim & Racquet Club banned pickleball because it backs up to residents who complained. Yup, pickleball violated the noise ordinance. Next time, neighbors can call the sheriff and people will be fined!
Great mental image of kevin with a snow shovel! Now that is one Christmas pageant i want to see!
