Straight down the middle. It went straight down the middle.
Mike GonzalezThen it started to What was the craziest stuff you ever drank out of the declared jug?
Nick PriceDrank a lot of beer and uh you know the black velvet we call, you know, the champagne, champagne and uh champagne and uh Guinness milk stout. But the one funniest thing, I used to play with these old guys at Royal Harari who every Friday. And I went back at the end of the year, and you know, the one the the open with the claret jug is the is the traveler, the one we get. So I took it with me back to Zimbabwe and I played with these guys and they had no idea I had the trophy. And I'd been playing with these old guys um for I don't know how many years, probably since I was about 15 or 16. And anyway, I put it in, I put it in, I put it in. We used to drink in the locker room after we'd played. And I I put the uh I put the jug in the manager's office in the safe. And then when they were finished, we ordered the first round. We sit in there, we're about to get in the showers and you know, so we sit in there with our socks and shoes off and whatever. And uh I quickly ran to the thing then and uh grabbed the thing and then walked into wherever you guys were sitting. And while they were talking, I put it on the table in front of them. And I tell you what, that was like it was like I said, boys, here, we're gonna drink out of this tonight. And it was one of the one of the nicest, uh, greatest uh I don't know, joys of my life. So these guys had been so supportive of me, you know, through my career and everything, and and uh it w it was so funny. We drank a lot out of it that day.

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.
