instant electricity

on saturday afternoon, i flipped on the tube to watch this weekend's pga event (yes, i am that addicted), the corporate sponsor-name withheld phoenix open in scottsdale.  normally when one thinks golf, one imagines respectful, observant, politely hushed crowds of affluent senior citizens. but this is what the 16th hole at tpc scottsdale looks like.

never had i seen such a golf event!

it was the superbowl of golf events.  we're talking a golf hole plunked in the middle of an arena with the seating capacity of over 100,000 and complete with free bleacher section of rowdy college students drinking in the sun.

i tuned in just in time for this.
