Just got back from picking up my official Ryder Cup volunteer package which included a nice polo, pants, jacket and hat. Being a volunteer gets me access to the grounds for the week as well as 8 free bottles of water and 3 free meals. Woohoo! Thought this would make all the golf nuts on hear jealous.

Just assume there's a collective "we hate you" from all of us who wish we were there.

Do they need any more volunteers? Sounds like a great way to get on the course for the tourney. I have had a hell of a time finding any tickets. I am just not willing to spend big bucks to gain entrance.

Sorry nuts but they are all good on volunteers. My dad and I applied last summer and have known about being a volunteer for about a year now. But you are right, being a volunteer is a lot better than trying to get passes.

BBC, just a note that I'm also part of the collective.

I will be there for the practice round on Wednesday...yes I love golf so much that I'm driving to Louisville to watch guys practice. Now that I got that off my chest. BBC as a fellow muskie lover, I hope you understand that's it's your DUTY to get me and my brother in law access to all courtesy tents.

As a volunteer, what are your responsibilities?

I have 4 shifts as a volunteer, my first shift I will be in charge of traffic control in one of the merchandise tents while the other 3 shift I will be working at a check tent which where patrons who have bought stuff can check them into these tents so they don't have to carry them while they are out enjoying the tournament.

Smails, I will do my best to get you into the International Pavilion though I can't promise you anything.

Madxster, what will you be doing as a volunteer?

As far as the Ryder Cup goes, I will be doing my best to hate you and Smails as much as I can since I will not be in attendance.

This sign is at the entrance of Smails driveway. His wife ignored it though.

How would you like to come over and mow my lawn? I'm sure a college bouind fella like you could use a little extra money. And after you mow the lawn...why don't you stop by the yacht club....mmm...mmm
