Yes. The Senior PGA had a regular stop here at the Brickyard for many years. I would often get free 3 day passes because I knew the asst. pro there from when I used to play golf. It was always a good time. Didn't really follow anyone for the whole day...we would usually just find a good spot and watch a hole for a bit and then move on to the next one. A couple of memories I have.... I saw Gary Player hit the most amazing golf shot I have ever seen and Chi Chi did his Sword thing about 6 feet from me. But alas they no longer come here.

Does Nike tour, and not really watching the golf as much as drinking a lot of beer and making fun of the golf groupies count?

Used to hit the PGA tour stop in Greensboro every year. Haven't been in a while, though.

Used to get Muirfield passes from one of my wine reps. A much more fun experience than I would have guessed. Many events in sports need to be seen live to fully appreciate. I can think of nothing more boring than watching the NHRA on tv. However, when the Spring Nationals used to be held outside of Columbus, Budweiser used to comp my dad and I. We had a blast!!
