Straight down the middle. It went straight down the middle. Then it started to hook just.
Bobby NicholsI can remember one year at the Houston Open. I remember you, I forgot exactly what you did say, but I know you finished the second one shot back. You said something about them Aggies stopped your ball from going over the green or something. I said, Well, I'm sure there's a few Aggies in the crowd that were pulling for me, I'm sure.
Bruce DevlinNo, I'll tell you this story just so that it reminds you. Yes, we were playing together the last time.
Bobby NicholsWas that it?
Bruce DevlinAnd I hit a I hit my second shot at the ninth hole on the back fringe. And when I got up to the green, it was about twelve yards over the green, right next to a tree. And I wondered how a ball could stop in one place and end up in another. So I figured I figured it was those damn Aggies. Yeah, never forget that. And you know what's interesting too, Bobby, is uh uh an an old friend of mine. Uh the very first time I got to go to Texas AM, uh Gloria said to me after we'd watched a football game there, you know something? We're gonna send Kel, my oldest boy, to Texas AM. And by the way, he said to say hi today, too. Yeah, he wanted me to say hi for you. So he ended up being an Aggie. Oh yeah, big time.

Intro MusicWhack down the fairway. It went smack down the fairway. Then it started to slice just smidge off line. It headed for two, but it bounced off nine. My caddy says long as you're still in the state, you're okay. Yes, it went straight down the middle, quite away.
