Hey there!!!
I left there at 2:00 cause I had to get to work and it rained the whole way home. From watching the rest of the day’s action on the tube, it looks like the majority of the rain ended right around 5:00, so you did good!!!
Now for the situation. You’ll notice my 2 posts from this morning were from the course. I was sitting at 1 tee watching from there. If you’ve ever been to any professional tour events, we all know cellphones are a no-no because of that 1 idiot who screws everything up for everybody.
Anyway, I sneak my phone in today. Putting the battery in my pocket and the phone in my hat. They don’t bother to wand my hat and it works...... That is until I sent the 2nd post. Apparently a couple of sheep, I mean fans complained to the cops that I had a phone and was using it. So while I’m posting the 2nd, female cop waves me down and with male cop(let me say they were extremely well behaved and courteous, and before I left the course I made sure to let them both know that)and they both almost in unison asked how I snuck the phone in. I pointed to my hat and they’re laughing but asking me to take my phone back to my car.
The female cop is walking me back to the gate when I try to make my case....
1)I own my own business 30 miles away from here(a store). If any emergencies occur, I’m the judge jury and executioner and have to react at a moments notice.
2)I have the phone in total silent mode. I give her my number and she calls the phone and I show her there’s no noise.
She doesn’t budge. I ask her to pass the following message if she sees either party the rest of the day......”If by chance some misfortune happens to affect me or my family and I don’t find out about it for hours cause I didn’t have my phone, may you also have some misfortune lay at your feet, TIMES 2!!!”
I get to the gate and the security asks me how I snuck the phone in, and I point to my hat again. When I come back to re-enter, the first thing they point to me to take off, my hat!!!
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DAY.......
The salute to local military personnel that took place inside the Ambassords’ Club this morning. Very well done!!
The standing ovation many in the crowd at #1 gave Phil Mickelson when he came to start his round today. Several players wore pink today as did some in the gallery as Saturdays are Cancer awareness days on tour.....
Nice update, LOL!
Also good to hear the support for Phil
Thx for the ping...I had totally missed this thread. Gotta be more vigilant!
Give a shout out to my nephew.
He needs to turn it up a notch tomorrow!
Are you going to the PGA next week?
A cell phone is like your wallet nowadays. And they ask you to take a bus or a shuttle so it’s next to impossible to attend without it. How many courses have lockers outside? At least that’s the way it is an most events.
