Gideon moved next door to Elton’s quiet neighborhood and trouble soon followed. When asked not to block Elton’s driveway, Gideon ignored the request often, inconveniencing Elton’s family.
The tension peaked when Elton discovered his lawn vandalized with “SELFISH JERK” painted in bright orange. Confrontations with Gideon led nowhere; the man dismissed it as a joke and police couldn’t take action.
Refusing to back down, Elton worked with his brother’s landscaping team to replace the grass and install blue-dye sprinklers.
One morning, Gideon and his dog were drenched in blue water as they passed by Elton’s home, making a colorful and unforgettable statement witnessed by neighbors.
Gideon demanded to know what was going on; Elton responded with calm confidence, and Gideon left silently, leaving the driveway alone since.
Elton’s creative prank reestablished boundaries and peace in the community.
