Who's going to Augusta?

By all means sneak in a camera and a cell phone with the ring tone turned up to the highest volume level. You're bound to make many new friends during the 60 seconds you're on the grounds.

60 seconds? I'll give you 8 seconds, tops.
 
If you are lucky enough to cover the Masters, you should take orders from friends, family, coworkers for Masters apparel, then add 10-20 percent to the cost for your pinch. Everybody's happy.

Drive a car onto the 14th fairway and clip Tiger Woods while you're at it.

That's OK if it's a Buick.

BYH would love that. :D
 
If you're betting on the winner, or staying in a house with Kindred and his pals, don't let the Washington Post ombudsman find out....and hide your Oreos from Feinstein.

Nicely played.

If you do this, make sure you don't pack it in your suitcase; that you carry it on your person.

Five years ago, a golf-writing buddy of mine took about $500 worth of orders for goodies, most of which he put in his suitcase. One of the TSA folks helped himself to the majority of his stash.

I was lucky. I ordered a hat for my dad and a pin for me and those were in a separate suitcase.

Moral of the story: anything with the Augusta logo is fair game.
 
Ugh. That post brings back memories. I went to Super Bowl XXIII in Miami (as a big Bengals fan) and got a ton of stuff, and for the plane home my mother demanded I check my suitcase (Bengals logo bag). When I opened it at home it was missing half its contents, most notably some autographed stuff from parties and XXIII logo crap. Being 14 years old, I was crushed. Over it now but I still bust my Mom's chops about it.

We were just talking about golf-shoe spectators yesterday. The best part about that is that even $150 golf shoes are absurdly uncomfortable.
But to one-up everyone, how about the couple that both wears golf shoes. Sweet.

Do those people wear spikes to a baseball game?

Do people wear cleats, pads and a helmet to football games?
