A chance for golf fans to do a bucket list item is you do not mind a non-zero chance of ending up in the bucket.

In the late ‘80’s and early ‘90’s, eight of us from work would go to Persimmon Hill Golf Club in South Carolina and play on the Saturday and Sunday before the Masters...On Monday, we would drive about 30 miles to Augusta and attend the first practice round...You could get in for $10 on Monday and $20 on Tuesday...
In my opinion, that was more fun than a real round because the players would chat with you and were very friendly because it was practice...
I saw Bernhard Langer give away a dozen new Titleist balls on the putting green by putting them at little kids and saying the ball wasn’t any good, just keep it...LOL

A close friend of mine had tickets to Walt Disney World 2 weeks after 911.
They had the entire park to themselves.

I'm a long time NFL season ticket holder
typically I'll go to two or three home games each season
I live 250 miles from the stadium. I put my tickets up for sale on Ticketmaster, sometimes Stub-Hub, for games I'm not planning to attend and have some degree of success selling them. Some years I do fairly well and make money on my tickets, other years break even or like last season lose money. Even when I lose money a good portion of the season ticket price for the upcoming season is in the bank. Understand the first installment (half the season ticket price) is due in March. The second early June. A couple of seasons back I came close to giving up my tickets because of the Kaepernick BS this year I may pull the trigger and not renew. My thinking this Coronavirus thing in time will dissipate but there will be a ripple effect for some time after
meaning NFL tickets are going to take a tremendous hit this fall. Many stadiums will be half full at best
even teams that sell out season after season.

$1000+ for a one day ticket? Snort. You couldn’t pay me $1000 to go.
