This discussion reminds me of a tourney experience from this past fall. Full tourney, fivesomes on every hole. A group of casual players (with a pretty good buzz kickin') were peeved at how busy the course was and they were dead set on getting their party on.. loaded coolers, boombox blasting music and all..
They were turned away by the TD at hole 1 and so they went to the back of the course near a big water hole that causes backups and waited until there was a break between groups so they could tee off. We arrive on the teepad of the hole and motioned that we were ready to tee-off and tried to explain that a tournament was in progress, with groups behind us. They just told us to F-off and flicked us birds and started talking back to us and continued to play the hole.
It just so happened that at the same time we notice the local club president playing the hole across the street from us and we got his attention and showed him what we were dealing with. He yells from all the way across the course that the course is closed for the tournament.. They got just as belligerent with him and started cussing and making a loud scene, telling everyone to suck it and that we're all stupid for paying money to play and he has every right to play too.. etc etc..
TD sends over a park ranger.. apparently a rookie ranger.. The ranger lady is disrespected almost as bad as we were, but she gets them to begrudgingly leave. The whole time they walked away they were cussing us out and trying to pick a fight with everyone on our card as they walk by on their way out.
A few months after the tourney, I visit the course and talk with the local guys and we discuss the incident and apparently these jerks went and filed formal written complaints against the DG club, the park ranger, and county parks dept. They apparently got the ranger lady in a heap of trouble for forcing them to leave the park (even though she really only made them leave the course) and in the end, the local club was made out to be in the wrong because it wasn't made clear enough to the public that the course was to be closed for the tourney (despite a sign at hole 1 teepad and the TD turning people away). Even though prior park approval was given, apparently the expectations set between the TD and the park officials were not quite on same page. Also, it seems you need signs on every hole these days to prevent some jerks from causing issues.
