SPRING HILL - The line of golf carts was so long that military veterans likened it to tank convoys from their days in the service.

It was so long that, from the air, it resembled an interstate traffic jam that snakes into the distance as far as the eye can see.

But the record-shattering parade of 1,138 golf carts that rolled through the Hernando County retirement community of Timber Pines on Monday achieved more than mere distance.

It had personality.

Leprechaun puppets danced on the roofs of golf carts, and leprechaun dolls rode on the back.

An Easter bunny sat on the hood of one cart, resting comfortably among plastic Easter eggs and a bed of plastic Easter grass.

2. I knew when I clicked the thread that it just had to be in Florida.

They drive those things on open highways and busy streets just like they are driving a Buick or a Lincoln. I believe they must hace suicidal tendencies.
