But what if "we" did deny his membership, he sued (he is worth millions) and we got into a protracted legal battle with him....our little club that fights tooth and nail for every entry, every penny....we spend HUGE money to fight his membership...and in the end, he gets in anyway, because we simple have NO BASIS to keep him out. Our club would be worse off, and he would win anyway, at our expense. Then what?
