Playing for thirty K in prize money for the entire purse payout. Pretty damn cool.

 

[solomon.trenton]

thats pretty neat, the disc must have been speed 2 though

I liked the 10 foot "long putt". I've never seen old school frisbee golf. That was a treat. Makes me grateful that we have discs now instead of frisbees.

 

[Dthunderchicken]

I wonder if they were throwing IFA approved discs?

 

[zenbot]

My favorite part is the dude that misses a putt and destroys the bush behind him. Oh yeah, and the guy that throws forehand. That's some windup.

 

[zenbot]

Is that Casey Kasem doing the voiceover?

 

[petecarp]

oh the days when snapper pearson used to dominate the links

 

[zenbot]

I was surprised that they could throw lids close to 300 feet.

 

[Lost in the Brambles]

That was rad...

 

[DGtourist]

By comparison an Orc would be like a weapon.

Yes, thank you, that's what I meant in my head!
