Tee Party

Golf nuts head souse for the winter

Don’t tell our boyfriend, but we think “GGG” means “good game of golf.” Head down, steady eye, pull the wood, and swoop down hard for the connection and then the release. It's like kinky sex, but with better scorekeeping. Beginning at 3:30 p.m. Thursday, January 31, fans and celebs alike will party like it’s 30-something years ago at the FBR Open’s bacchanalian Birds Nest when KC and the Sunshine Band shake-shake-shake their booties and the hosts of FOX Sports Net’s The Best Damn Sports Show Period prove how good they are at reading from cue cards live.

The Open’s first round precedes at 7:40 a.m., and with it we'll get the oft-debated Golf Groupie (you know who you are) wending his/her way through the rough, pouncing on stray balls. No doubt he/she will whip ’em out for all to see at the Nest.
