disc Golf on Tosh.o

[jhgonzo]

The clip accomplished several things we've been wanting as far as "national exposure" goes:

1) Even though he called it "frolf" at the end of the clip, the participants weren't exaggerated "frolfer" caricatures.

2) The demo was a cool achievement, and one that will probably be replicated all over YouTube by disc golfers attempting to beat Tosh's record.

3) Kind of related to #1, but the sport itself wasn't made to look goofy or akin to a hobby like LARPing.

4) By "nah-nah-nah-boo-boo, stick your head in doo-doo"ing the golf clip below, Tosh implicitly called disc golf "cooler."



Now, the whole downside to this is the inevitable influx of the Tosh.0 demographic that will now want to discover disc golf, some of them perhaps ne'er-do-wells trying to be a YouTube sensation at your local course's expense.

Just imagine driving all over town only to find that every single course has a college guy on it trying to break the "most holes played in 24 hours" world record.

I didn't see the episode, so I googled "tosh.0 disc golf" and I don't know if this is at all relevant, but it cracked me up:

you can see the shadow of the guy filming, he throws the disc in. the rest is bad acting. sorry.

Literally ran from the computer and changed the channel right as the clip started. EXCELLENT timing on my part.

I didn't want to be that guy Way to ruin the fun

Watch the clip

(okay, upon rewatching, I see I was mistaken about the "frolfer" stereotypes, but at least they were seemingly intentionally funny rather than "trying" to be one of us)

NICE. both clips are awesome

I'm trying to figure out where the last disc comes from. It REALLY doesn't look like Tosh threw it.

No body likes to get frolfed in the face

First time I've heard the word frolf and didn't cringe, funny stuff.

 

[Monkeypaws]

Disc golf + Tosh.0 = awesome.

Those putts are at the site of a disc golf course that's going in very soon, at Kenneth Hahn State Rec Area in Culver City. Sweet!
