[Golf]HOBO plays the MASTERS!!

[golfhobo]

Okay, not really PLAYING it!! Who would believe THAT??

But, You'll all have to "excuse" me tomorrow (Thursday) as I AM going to the first round play! Tickets are totally "unavailable," but I have connections!

Okay... my DAD has connections!! [God DOES work in mysterious ways!]

For a golf fan like me, this is a really special experience! I HOPE to get some good autographs! Wish they'd let me take a camera in! :twisted:

Sure hope those dirty Iranian Bastards don't NUKE "Amen Corner!" If they do.... I take back EVERYTHING I said on that other thread!

I'm not SURE if I can do a 14 hour day without smoking or drinking.... but, ya gotta do what ya gotta do!!

I just hope they let me "back in" to my parking spot!! If they have any questions... I'll show 'em my CDL!! :P

Y'all have a SAFE day out there! I'll be thinkin' of ya! NOT!!!!

regards yer envious Bro...Hog (I'm in a big snowstorm here at home )

[golfhobo]

AAARGGGHHHH!!!! NOW I'm gonna be thinking about that "snickering PIG!" :shock:

Thanks, Bro! You REALLY should move SOUTH!

Wonder how Yoopers got groceries before they invented TRUCKS, and found people like YOU to drive 'em???? :shock:

That was, of course, a rhetorical question! I KNOW that they were delivered by FEDEX-AIR!!

DANG!!! Did you see that drive Tiger just made??? :shock:

If life gets any better..... I just MIGHT have to stick around for it! 8)

Don't let me see you on national TV having your camera confiscated and busted up by the "tiger"..

Golf and Soccer are in the same catagory they both = boring.

right up there with watching paint dry and grass growing.

What's a roughneck truck driver doing going to a golf tourny to watch?? That ain't right man, unless Happy Gilmore is out there.

Well, they don't ALLOW cameras or cellphones! But, according to my sister, we WERE on T.V. Guess, I'm now a movie star, as well!

Me and Tiger walked down the fairway together! Of course, HE was inside the ropes! MAN.... watching him tee off was awesome!

One thing I noted though, the camera DOES add weight and size! Many of these guys were MUCH smaller than I expected, and that was even when I was up close! :shock:

Regretfully, I missed qualifying by a F-E-W strokes!!!

[bulldog2036]

Glad you're having a good time.

[golfhobo]

Glad you're having a good time.

Actually.... that was yesterday. Today, I'm at home getting ready to go trucking again. We only had the "use" of a Thursday pass. A once in a lifetime opportunity for poor folks like us!

I'm glad I can add this "experience" to my list.... and I've got the hat to prove it.... but still, the BEST seat is at home in front of the TV!!

Glad Tiger got to see me, though! He might not be around if I'd had a Sunday pass! :shock:

[bulldog2036]

Did you give him YOUR autograph?

[golfhobo]

Did you give him YOUR autograph?

Big signs saying, "no autographs beyond this point!" And I had to leave before he finished. I'm SURE he was disappointed.... and his second round play proves it!!

Now, it's gonna be ALL MY FAULT if he misses the cut! :sad:

Tiger..... "call me!" I can FIX that swing of yours!! 8)

[Nomad_]

Tiger has a nice smile.


Hobo, I would rather autograph Mrs. Tiger 8)

[golfhobo]

Hobo, I would rather autograph Mrs. Tiger

Well.... what do you think I was doing while he was on the "practice green?"

If you could see the BACKSIDE of that suit, you'd see where I signed it "Jody!" (in YOUR honor!)

[emerlin]

You know what would make golf more interesting? Defense! I'd watch that.

Enjoy your tiime off, Golfhobo!

[TK THE TRUCKER]

I was able to attend the PGA Championship a few years ago here in Rochester at the Oak Hill Country Club. At the time I drove local for a company that sold golf course equipment ( mowers and such ) and irrigation. Oak hill was one of our biggest customers so we had an "in". I was able to go twice, I think Thursday and Saturday but I cant remember. Anyways it was really cool to see all the players in person. Too bad Tiger didn't do crap that week. I can't believe the scores at Augusta today. Last time I saw no one was under par. I think the leader was like +2. Tiger was +3. We'll have to see what happens tomorrow

Yeah....
OR.... :twisted:

Young, hot, female Caddy's dressed in Bikini's.
Crowd may cheer loudly when they bend over to pick up the ball... :P 8)

....and GET RID of those Polite hush-mouthed Announcers...and allow the Crowd to try and distract the players....like in Baseball.

Maybe we could get rid of these Fairies...and get some Steriod-drinkin' sluggers in the game.

Actually, Golf DOES have "defense!" The Greenskeepers are a real sadistic bunch!

Placing the holes just over a sand bunker, with a downhill slope on the other side....

Cutting the greens so close that the sun bakes them into the consistency of a pool table surface.....

Sloping fairways to the left, so the ball rolls down to a point JUST where that big Oak tree is between you and the green......

Placing water hazards at the average length of most players' drives or second shots, so they have to either lay up (and lose a stroke) or "go for it" (which usually means losing a stroke!).....

You get the idea..... Me playing Augusta National would be like your son's highschool football team playing the Chicago Bears Defense! :shock:

[wot i life]

There,s an old course on the Shetland Islands that is set to re-open. Windiest place in the U.K! Not a single tree can grow on the island due to constant gale force winds. Fancy a game there Hobo? :wink:
