Hunter's Last Words...
Maybe. Anyhow, Hunter S. Thompson was a regular columnist for ESPN and last week's column was, of course, his last.
Ironically it's about my favourite sport - Golf.
Hunter S. Thompson: "I'm working on a profoundly goofy story here. It's wonderful. I've invented a new sport. It's called Shotgun Golf. We will rule the world with this thing."
Bill Murray: "Mmhmm."
Hunter S. Thompson: "I've called you for some consulting advice on how to launch it. We've actually already launched it. Last spring, the Sheriff and I played a game outside in the yard here. He had my Ping Beryllium 9-iron, and I had his shotgun, and about 100 yards away, we had a linoleum green and a flag set up. He was pitching toward the green. And I was standing about 10 feet away from him, with the alley-sweeper. And my objective was to blow his ball off course, like a clay pigeon."
