My pal 4Checker did a nice Colonial preview over at The Golf Space. Check it out.
T Minus Five Hours And Counting
In five hours there will be a “Mrs. Mediaguru.” Yes, in five hours I make it official and marry my wonderful lady. I’m so happy and honored and can’t wait to see all my friends and family at the celebration after. With that and my pending “minimoon” in Vegas, I’ll be a little busy and not posting much on HOG for the next few days.
The Non Annual Korologos Wedding Invitational Golf Tournament
We had a great round yesterday at the wedding golf tourney. 11 of my closest pals got together for some golf, as well as cigars and scotch courtesy of Al my best man. Great times were had by all and guess who won the tournament by two shots, even though he had three 3-putts? Yours truly. And I went undefeated on bets. I won them all, including a skin on #11. I wonder if my pals let me win?
Wedding Night
For those who wanted media from the wedding night, it will only be available on pay per view for $49.95. Check with your local cable or satellite provider for channels and times.
The first tee time is in six hours. The pre tournament lunch is in five. That’s when 12 great guys, and some good golfers will get together for the Non Annual Korologos Wedding Invitational Golf Tournament, sponsored by Bridgestone Golf, Sumi-G, River Oaks Golf Course, Hooked On Golf Blog and The Golf Space. I’m stoked to have this great group of guys all in one place to celebrate and have some stogies. But remember guys, the smoking area at Bonneville Golf Course is between the tee and green on the 14th hole. I’m not kidding. It really is…
The Players:
Tony Korologos (me), “The Groom.”
Mike Korologos “Mr. Ski Utah” and my pops.
Arnie, “The Greek best man.”
Chip a.k.a. Alan Nelson, “The white best man.”
Father Mario Gianopoulos, “Sunday qualifier.”
Shane Gonzales, a.k.a. Shanego. “Better looking than Tom Cruise.”
Dave Shields, “Beats up helpless midget cart boys.”
Dan Crookston, “Longest banana ball in North America.”
Al Thomas, “Mr. Short Game.”
Jim Van Nyhuis, “Big Jim.”
Bryant Jacobs, “Your service to our country is appreciated.”
Marius Kvinge, “Mr. Sumi-G, and Tony’s golf ATM.”
The following players will not be attending. You’ll be missed:
Tom Korologos, “Mr. Ambassador.” Withdrew due to injuries sustained in a freak dog walking accident.
John Bush, “My mother thanks you. My father thanks you, and I thank you.”
Phil Korologos, “Non Annual Korologos Wedding Invitational Golf Tournament Legal Counsel.” May arrive in time for the trophy ceremony.
Favorites to Win:
Me of course.
Mr Short game’s short game is deadly. He could take this thing. I expect a low 70’s round.
Big Jim’s length could be a big advantage in wet conditions.
Arnie is always deadly and consistent. He is always competitive.
Mr. Sumi-G is due for a low round. Will it be today?
Shanego’s swing is natural and smooth. He played a practice round in Colorado yesterday.
Side Bets:
I’ll have my usual one on one bets against Mr. Sumi-G, Arnie, Big Jim and Mr. Short Game.
Arnie and I will be taking on Big Jim and Mr. Short Game for our usual team bet. This one will be tight.
Man this story sucks. My newest famous golf pal, who I met in Puerto Rico a couple of months ago, was robbed. Chi Chi Rodriguez (pictured with me on the right) had four armed gunmen enter his home at 1:30am last night. They tied him up and spent 45 minutes ripping him off. They even took the wedding ring off of his wife’s finger. Chi Chi’s wife was a very nice lady who I talked to for quite a while. I feel for them.
Fortunately, for whatever it means, the robbers were “gentle” and “respectful.” Not sure how you can respectfully rob someone but at least they’re OK and weren’t hurt.
