So very, very awesome. Played a round of night golf last night (91) and when we got to the bar after the round, one of the bartenders said he had an extra ticket for today's (fri) round! I've had 3 hrs sleep and I'm heading out the door as I type this. SO excited. My first ever PGA experience. :-) I'll take an obnoxious amount of pictures and post them later. :-D

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Yeah, but I didn't know who he was. I tried to order a hotdog from him...didn't go over very well...

That was my first, and possibly only, chance to see PGA pros live. Standing directly behind a tee box when one of these guys hits a drive is absolutely mind-blowing.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

By the way, your man Gmac was awesome on Friday. Sticking it close on every approach, he was inside Luke Donald and Wier all day. He also looks just so damn personable.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

You know what's even more mind-blowing???  Standing directly IN FRONT of the tee box when one of these guys hits a drive.  Literally. :-P

I'll take an obnoxious amount of pictures and post them later.

BTW, thanks for all of these ... they were awesome!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

I didn't know cameras were forbidden. Security said, "what's in the bag?" and I replied, "oh, just my camera." :doh:

Well then ... you're an idiot!! :-P

You'd have had a better chance getting through if you'd have said "cocaine and a handgun."

Yep, that's me. :doh: The guy I was with took a bunch on his iPhone and said he'd email them to me but hasn't so far.

That's funny, we did stand directly behind the green on some approach shots. Dudes are hitting 200 yard approaches and we're standing five feet off the back of the green. You won't catch me doing that at the local muni. LOL.

Sounds like you had a good time! :-) I'm lucky enough to live 7 minutes from the most popular course on the Canadian Open rotation (Glen Abbey GC), so I've been to 3 Canadian Opens. It really is an awesome experience.

    • I have nothing to add other than I freaking love her swing and I think she's hot as hell and some of my golfing buddies disagree so I fought them
    • I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.

    • Hence your Avatar!😜 I drink a lot of water during the day if I’m playing or exercising. I get cramps otherwise.
    • If you walk up to a food/drink kiosk at Magic Kingdom and ask the person for a cup of "magic water" they will give you a small cup of Sprite for free. About 3 fingers worth. They don't sell alcohol at MK anymore so I go over to one of the courses while she hangs out there.
