    I've been catching snippets of it here and there. I'll probably watch it over the weekend. I don't know what it is about golf, but I can watch tournaments for hours. Most other sports bore the living shit out of me.

    They should give the audience airhorns though, they can sound then off when someone makes a hole in one, or an eagle. Or even when someone sinks the ball.

    My grandfather godfather is probably watching them. Golf and hockey are the only thing that interrupts his faux news brainwashing.

    Golf has the advantage of being boring IRL as well as when observed.

    I suggested having Tererun shoot the players with her mad paint-ball skillz. :yes: But since this is not the case, screw it - if tickets were free I still wouldn't go and I only live minutes away from the course. BTW airhorns are a great idea, but let's raise the bar with every...single...fan blowing a vuvuzela!

    Is he actually a man or does he just play one on tv?

    My grandfather cannot even work his new remote, how the hell would he bought on tv? That did not make any sense.

    Oh, and if by being a man you mean he is stubborn, way too proud of the past, and hates everyone who does not look like him and wants them to be killed by empowered trump then yes he is a man. He does not molest children like you, but he is all for covering up for priests who do it just like you.

    You've got a lot of pent up hostility, dude. Make peace with your grandfather before it's too late.

    I do not take advice for on people who riddle little kids and get a certification from that if church claiming they are safe. There are a bunch of terrible decisions in your life, and I think there are better people to ask for advice. If it is hard to u understand I know a song that might help you and it is from Lily Allen. No it is not that one.

    Anywho just to keep it "green room" and golf related - I played miniature golf a couple of weeks ago. I was on point, even scoring a handful of holes-in-one. :yes:

    Yep, love the Masters.

    Fuck off with your airhorns though. No chance Augusta would allow it.

    If you are interested in golf crowds getting encouraged to be rowdy, check out the WM open (pheonix) every february. Theyv turned the 16th hole into an ampithere and the punters get blind drunk. :techman:

    When are you getting me these masters tickets? 2020 would be a good year for me to go.

    I know a non-golfer at work who made quite a killing selling tickets (I don't know how he scored them and he wouldn't tell me anyway) but there's a catch: if the tickets are designated for Rick Jones military contractor and Rick Jones isn't the ones using them the guy using them isn't in trouble - Rick Jones is for abusing the system, even though there is no actual proof the tickets were sold - it is still abusing the system.

    But yeah, if I ever get free and clear legal tickets they're yours for free. I keep forgetting to put in for free tickets every year. Being a disabled retiree they earmark a few tickets every year. :( My memory sucks - jog my memory in about six months though and who knows? I like helping people out when I can.

    Did you score a free game by getting it in the clown's mouth on the final hole?

    Good point - the mini-golf course I played was lacking in variety and dynamic movement. In other words no windmills where you had to time your putts exactly correct or the they would be blocked by a windmill arm, no monsters jaws that would scoop up your ball if you didn't putt at exactly the right time, etc. Sadly this is the only mini-golf in town.
