I have wanted to start this thread for a while for those that go to THP Events and then all of the sudden months/years later remember something and don't want to go digging up an old thread. This thread could be a great way to throw random memories in there.

Only rule is you have to start your memory with what event and year it was from.

I will kick this one off with THP Bridgestone Championship 2013 Las Vegas.

Sitting at a Blackjack table with 3 THPers and all going well (really well for some). Someone suggest getting a full table of THPers and we get one all set up. It was myself GregDan, MikeDean, BuckJob, golf4life and a few others. The new dealer's name was Channy and she asks everybody for ID. She comes to golf4life and she says "You good". Then she proceeded to take everybody's money for 20 minutes.
 
I'm honored? Yes, Channy the dragon lady. Not my favorite person.
 
First off, screw "Channy" that was awful, the beating was BRUTAL.

From that same event, THP Bridgestone Championship 2013 Las Vegas, JB asked if we could get our own Roulette Table to do a few giveaways.

I came back with the mini plastic routlette Wheel, and boy was it AWESOME
 
KC this year.

We are Dave and Busters and TexasHacker has the nerve to doubt my talents at the Claw Game. I promptly grab a big Redskins furry weiner out on the first try (with a bit of MikeG assistance).

This was great. I will never forget you telling the guy at the casino "Listen, we need to borrow a roulette wheel for like 10 minutes". He looked at us like we were crazy. You gave him the "Do you know who we are" stare and he came back with that plastic one.
 
2013 Bridgestone Championship Las Vegas

From that same event, I was rooming with Buck. Not sure if everyone else's room had that creepy window into the shower from the bedroom. Whenever buck went into the bathroom for any reason I went to the other corner of the room and stared at the wall just in case my head twitched or something and I saw something I could never unsee.
 
This year in KC teaching ATL all about Periscope and we all start periscoping each other on periscope while they are also on periscope, lost yet, we were too!
 
Morgan Cup 2013 in Myrtle Beach

So I was feeling disappointed about the Morgan Cup ending (my first one).... We were in the Villa hanging out drinking rums when MikeDean441 decided it would be a good time to start packing his staff bag into the smallest travel case ever. After laughing so hard I was sweating for the next 20+ minutes, I was a happy guy.

There's video somewhere. And a thread. And it was amazing.
 
Myrtle Beach Invitational I want to say 2012 (December)

Partnered with Jeff Spicoli, great guy by the way and he CRUSHES one on #1 at True Blue so I think to myself "hey we got a shot at this"

I proceed to pick up my ball at Double Bogey (thought that was max) and was kindly informed it was DOUBLE PAR

Whoops
 
2013 THP Demo Day
Reunion Resort

Seeing a patron not from THP ask Freddie for water as he walked by was absolutely hilarious. Panda is now known as waterboy.

Same event.....mward showing his incompetency to glue on adapters at the range as heads go flying down range!
 
The THP Tour Van Stop in Ohio. Let's call it 2012?

Someone claimed to hit a ball 265 yards with 5 hybrid.... over the road through the range.
He was going pro next week.
Then hit the clubhouse with an approach shot.
Then rolled around on the ground laughing.

MC 2012
TB #15
Sunday Singles

While preparing for his putt, the third in our group proceeds to drop his snacks on the green, and Chex Mix explodes everywhere.
Unfortunately, only myself, JB, and WarEagle were privy to that hilarity.
 
THP Bridgestone Championship 2014 PGA National Resort & Spa

Playing with Hawk, Vman and Michigan Slice. On my backswing on the 15, my club breaks in half.
So I staked it in the ground for ddec, who wanted to use it on that whole and was playing about 6 groups behind me. All of the THPers left it there for him and I beliece he still has it.

Haha. It wasn't even a violent break from where we were standing. He took the club back and the bottom half just sort of fell off.
 
Callaway Ultimate Testing/2013

Playing with Wake and 2 others (sorry to the other 2. I mix up those rounds when thinking of who I played a round with. Pretty sure it was Spicoli and TC1 though) and I hit a wayward drive into the trees. I decide to take the hero shot and go through the trees. Plan totally backfires on me and I drill a tree center mass. The ball ricochets directly at our other cart. Takes a funny hop and gets stuck in the wheel well of the cart. No idea how that's even physically possible but it happened.

I thought it was going to kill one of them the way it launched off that tree and headed right for them. I still think of that shot every time I punch out of trees.

(There is a picture of the incident but I can't find it right now)

Morgan Cup 2012 Myrtle Beach
We are all square on 18 at Caledonia after our opponents make 2 long putts on back to back holes to push us to 18. P4B hits a great drive and its my turn to hit the approach shot...Needless to say...We were gellen like a felon. And no, those 2 balls showing in the still of the video below are not mine...

 
2015 Love Is In The Air Orlando

Watching people get out of the pool during a rain storm sat before dinner only to get back in the water when the rain stopped.
 
The King 2014

I believe it was the second round on Saturday when I was paired up with OG. It was so hot and the beverage cart was nowhere to be seen. Bill had some adult pops with him, but they were steaming by that point. So we just got some ice and had the bees over ice. I never thought an iced down beer would taste so good.
