AUGUSTA, GA, – Well, this is what the men behind Augusta National had in mind five years ago when they installed the teeth in this course…For the first time since then, there will likely be no rain through the four days and with the wind blowing and the temperatures nearing record lows, it has officially become a bear…Add to all of that the fact that while the fairways are awfully soft because of watering and the greens are drying to parking-lot consistency, Sam Snead’s record set back in 1954 of one over par as the highest winning score could very well be in jeopardy…
Augusta National Golf Club may be many things but you would think cheap would not be one of them…Yet, while it has donated over 29 million dollars over the last eight years to charities around the city and country, it has never raised prices…sandwiches have been $1.50 for decades, same with the $2 beer and though you have to go through a lottery to get a practice-round ticket, it only costs you $36 once you get there…balcony seats to see “A Prairie Home Companion” costs more…course, the jokes usually aren’t as good here…
Confused at birth: Jeev Milkha Singh and Borat?…The latter, of course, had the lead here early Thursday or…
The Jokes are Good at Prairie Home Companion?
