Private golf clubs gone wild!

Ever wondered what happens behind the closed doors of the exclusive golf clubs of America?

Well, apparently the behavior can get a little rowdy - to say the least. Deadspin published a story about the shenanigans from the recent member golf tournament at Piedmont Driving Club in Atlanta, Georgia. The behavior was so atrociousness it let one member to send a letter to the president of the club. Here is an excerpt provided by Deadspin.

One member decided to play the 14th hole completely naked, I have not researched it, but I suspect this is also a crime in Georgia.

several members urinated on one of the greens, in presence of the caddie, a female, and one or more of the members deliberately exposed themselves to her while urinating. I suspect this is also a crime in Georgia.

one member decided to show off to other members, and a caddie, his ability to pick up a golf ball with his naked butt cheeks. I suspect that this behavior — if it occurred at Bobby Jones Golf Course — would have resulted in a call to the police and the arrest of the offender.

on Friday night, one of the drunken golfers passed out in the men's grill, and another member opened his pants, pulled out his penis, and slapped the passed out member's head with his penis.

I guess the old saying holds true, "You can take the frat boy out of college but you can't take college out of the frat boy".

I have to think this type of behavior is the exception, not the rule. Nothing like that would be tolerated where I work(Chenequa Country Club). I have heard of a few places that look the other way at that type of behavior, but they are typically cheap courses in terrible shape that nobody but the bawdiest of golfers frequents.

Sounds like a normal friday night. But really are these people grown adult or teenagers.

Nah they only call the police and have them harass regulars about hitting a car with a golf ball while the people who actually hit the car left.
