Had a great time at the golf tournament yesterday and the Y raised a lot of money to help support several of the valuable and necessary programs they provide to the children of our community.
After the tournament we were mingling around during the cocktail reception when I found out I won the long drive, which put me into the "Million Dollar Shoot-Out" with two other attendees. All I had to do was hit a shot from 165 yards down the 9th fairway, into the hole...with a representative from the insurance company watching, a video man documenting, and half the guys that played on the back deck rooting for/against me...no problem, right?
Well I had the pleasure of hitting first and managed to pull it left of the pin, and yes, I missed the green. It wasn't a bad shot, I just hung it up into the wind and it pulled off to the left...leaving me five yards (it was pin high...for what it's worth) and a lot of good luck short of a million. Nobody else made it either, but we had a great time and it was a rare treat to be able to even try to hit it for a cool mill.
So, I didn't really blow a million, so much as I blew a chance at a million...eh well, at least I won the long drive - must've been the NeuLasta, good thing they didn't blood test!
