Funniest/weirdest thing you've seen on the course

[Sandman1981]

The same damn coyote at Colorado Heights University has been stealing my fairway shots for the last couple months. 1018' hole 14. Tee off, take my second shot and as soon as it lands the SOB runs out of the woods, up to the disc flips it with his paws then proceeds to take it to the basket and drop it. Smart little focker. So far he took a valk, a surge and yes... here it comes, that wile coyote finally caught himself a roadrunner. Trying to get it on video.

These were both from tonigh at Shillito in Lexington, KYt....

After throwing our drives from the tee on #9, we started walking towards our drives. There is an asian kid about 20 years old walking on the fairway towards us. He walks directly into a tree limb which knocked off his hat. He picked up his hat and then started walking towards our group of 5. He then picked up one of our discs and turned 90 degrees towards the road. About 50 feet away from him we yelled that those were our discs..... that he had just watched us drive. He dropped the disc and said "I left it where I saw it". He then continued walking in our direction and then left the park. WTF? Was this kid high or something?

Next up.... we were finishing on hole 13 and walking to tee 14. All the sudden 3 SUVs drive passed us.... on the fairway. Again, WTF? They then park in the grass directly in front of the tee and in the way of where our drives needed to go. Out jumps 4 girls in prom dresses with their parents and mcuh younger siblings (I'm assuming). They decide to take pictures within 50 feet of the basket. We would have said something.... but obviously it was there prom night.... and they didn't have dates. So, they were already feeling self-conscious. So, we skipped the hole.

You're a bigger man than I am

Couple of weeks ago, we came across a lady frantically looking for a little white dog that she said she adopted the day before. The course is very woodsy with mountains all around, so the thing that shocked us was that she was trusting enough to let it off it's leash a day after adopting it.

Witnessed a couple today in broad daylight, in the middle of hole #5 fairway @ McCurry DGC in Fayetteville, GA. The couple was on a blanket, and under a blanket in 98 degree weather. Now I know it was nearly unbearable outside, but under the blanket had to be pushing 130 deg, no pun intended. I completely understand though, by all means, get your freak on; but in the middle of a 100+ acre park where kids have b-day parties? in the middle of a fairway? bundled up under a blanket in the scorching sun? please, at least take your actions in the woods What made it most disgusting was that my wife, myself, and my 1yr old kid had to literally step over these humpers to continue on the course. Yes, yes, close enough to hear the slurping

Yesterday I saw someone throw 1 off 1, 2 off 2, 3 off 3, 4 off 4. Then skip to 7 and throw multiple on 7-9 then go back to 3 and do the same thing again. I was behind him through 4 and we were the only 2 on the course and it is wide open. I wasn't just spying on him. I was playing slow myself, so I wasn't too worried about the multiple discs. What really confused me was the he never putted. Drove and picked up the discs, then went to the next tee.

Why didn't this happen yesterday while I was prepping the course for GSSS #3 on MAY 12th?

We set up a temp course for the Gateway Open at Sioux Passage Park years ago. We had one hole that we debated how close to the road the basket should be, but finally we decided to put it really close to the road figuring everybody in a PDGA tournament would figure out that going long would be very bad. When you approached the pin, you were up on a hillside shooting down toward the basket with the road about 15 ft past the hole continuing on a downhill slope. In a warm-up round a guy went for it from 50 or 60 ft on that hole. He missed the basket high and the disc floated out over the road where it landed in the back of a moving pick-up. The pick-up slowed down, then drove off with the guys putter.
The guy was really mad, so I tried not to fall down laughing. The look on his face when the pick-up drove off was priceless.

That is amazing!

You know how dogs like to play with sticks? Last year I was interrupted during my putt by a pitbull carrying around a dead tree. Not a stick. Not a log....a dead 25' TREE.

The Horny Stang at Riverside. It's a new yellow Mustang convertible with horns(beep beep) all over it and a talking deer head on the back, it's quite stupid. I won't even take a pic of it.

We used to have a guy locally whose dog used to do this. He's from Chicago originally, so it's possible (however unlikely) it could be the same dog.

Did he look like this?:

It was about a month ago.I was getting ready to play a glow round and stepped up to the first hole.I seen something up ahead that was black and moving like a large dog.The closer it got to me the more I realized this wasn't a Dog it was a very large bear cub.Needless to say i packed it up and walked to my car.

Last week I was playing and it was getting dark.I was finishing up the back 9 when I heard something in the brush.All of a sudden a red streak came flying past me.It was a red fox.I nearly crapped my pants.Had so much adrenalin rushing through me that I birdied the last 4 holes.

^^^If you're afraid of a fox, you shouldn't get married.
No, seriously, if you're an adult and afraid of a fox, please lock yourself inside and don't come out.

It came out so fast that I nearly jumped out of my skin.It was within arms reach of me.

I wasn't afraid,I was just surprised.The same kind of surprised when someone sneaks up behind you. :thmbup:

 

[ohtobediscing]

^^^ Got it. I admit, that happens often enough when people suddenly pop up when you aren't expecting it.

During yesterday's Crowley Spring Stampede near Ft. Worth, Texas there happened to be a very large gathering of LARPers. For everybody that doesn't know, "L.A.R.P." stands for Live Action Role Playing. So basically it's a bunch of people running around with Styrofoam swords and shields battling it out as if they were Knights of the Round Table.

Somebody was about to tee off on my card and as he is starting to x-step we hear somebody shout at the top of their lungs "I MUST PROTECT THE QUEEN!!" Fortunately for him he had time to stop and reset but we were basically in tears it was so funny! (the LARPers were dead ahead about 1,000 ft. away and in no way obstructing the hole). It was absolutely hilarious.

I saw them at a course about a year ago. It was about 95 degrees outside, and these guys where out in the open, wearing these crazy looking outfits. I dont' know why they didn't at least go in the near by woods where they would be in some shades.

I had a weird/funny thing happen a while back when we were screwing around after finishing a round. A video would have been awesome, but unfortunately no cameras were rolling. I threw a disc forehand before I ever really threw forehand, and it turned over on edge in the parking lot, rolled about 50-60 feet on the asphalt, and then kept rolling up the trunk of a huge sycamore tree. It climbed at least 25 feet up in the air almost like it was on a magnetic rail before it hit a branch and came crashing down to the ground. The other three people I was with couldn't even believe it because it looked so crazy. May sound a little lame but it was really bizarre in person.

Once i was on a course and my friend threw his destroyer at a rabbit, it hit where the rabbit was and rolled after the rabbit all the way to the woodline. an awful story really but it was funny how the disc just followed the rabbit
