    The Masters - 2019

    OK, I'm making my Masters attendance debut on Friday. Who's been? What does a first-timer need to know?

    Good for you.

    Much hillier than you'll ever imagine from watching it on TV.

    You'll love the food prices - - pimento cheese sandwiches are a must (assuming you like them).

    BEHAVE YOURSELF. They do not tolerate idiots there - - not that I think I had to put that out there in your case.

    If it's your first time, make it to Amen Corner, for sure.

    Yeah, I'm usually a sporting event drinker, and for the Masters I feel like that's a two beer (in a 12 hour) day just given the event. I'll have other chances this weekend to give the bourbon the Paul treatment.

    I think we'll get out there first thing in the morning to hit the store and try to walk the whole course. And yeah, not sure I'm going to be a fan of the pimento cheese sandwich, but I'm definitely going to have one. How could you not?

    See if you can find a weed anywhere on the golf course. I couldn't.

    Anyone ever have success with ticket lottery? I don’t know enough VIPs to go.

    My bets for the event:

    Rose 12-1
    DeChambeau 25-1
    Fitzpatrick 125-1

    Others I like but didn’t wager: Oosthuizen 40-1, Matsuyama 35-1

    Both my trips were lottery hits, two hits in my first four tries. Don't play Powerball, but maybe I should.

    I actually did, but it was on a Monday so it didn't count. Even so, I was tempted to call for a groundskeeper.
