You are lucky that the guy didn't run over your stuff. All kinds of crazy stuff happens at these shows. I would have gone completely nutso.
A number of year's ago my Chinese friend, Tony had one of the carnival trucks in Myrtle Point take out the front of his booth, when he backed up. I hope Tony will pop in one day over here and tell the story and let us know about his shows. Does a bunch of county fairs in Oregon during he summer. Great guy. I see him several times during the year. He wasn't in Coos County this time because of a conflicting schedule with Benton County because they moved CC to one week later.
Anyhow, he did get a small settlement from them. Looks like the next time I'll see him will be at the Tyson Wells Sell-a-Rama in Arizona. He is directly across from me and we have a good time there. I call him every once in a while.

Yeah, I was ready to blow if it had been damaged.
I used to wonder how some people think. I don't wonder any more, because I know that they don't think...
Accidents happen, but that was just plain stupid.
It would be great if Tony comes aboard and provides additional comments to yours, regarding the Oregon events.
But, no matter, I will probably be overly cautious in scheduling any fairs, next year, because of your insights.
