So here we come into the home stretch and what better way to kick off the beginning of the end with a major championship. Welcome one and all to the 2nd Annual Canadian Bacon Shootout!! On behalf of myself, Sylla and our Prime Minister The Hon. Jean Poutine, welcome to Canada! Here you will all be very happy to find that there is a decided lack of subsidized corn in Northern British Columbia. What you will find however, is that just as the polar bears came out of hibernation, the smart-car sized mosquitoes came calling. The beavers up here are tougher than leather and from time to time, a moose walks on your line with absolutely no regard for proper etiquette. It’s all just part of living the life of a golfing lumberjack in northern Canada eh? So O.K., anyways, we got tons of BACON (and I literally mean tons, about 19,000 lbs worth), and enough Canadian beer to fill an ocean tanker (or 31,893 birch-bark canoe’s). Last years contestants barely made it out alive, but we’ll have Olga and Helga to help us get through the torment again this year. The course is in great shape and at 7,980 yards, it’s a brute!

Joseph Leone has taken asylum up here in Canada and will be able to make it out, TLaVan was seen hunting around for “BC bud” what ever that is and Cogolfer is on the run from the committee again but will try and squeeze in 36 holes somehow. Last year’s host, Sylla will be back in fine form with her team of trained beavers to heckle the other players and is the odds-on favourite to win. Shaun Crawford has been held up at the border and is being detained for trying to import phoney American bacon! Pete512 has also been held up because the border guards think his Florida licence looks like a fake! Something about oranges and bacon, I don’t know. And AT&T doesn’t exist up here so Wink won’t be able sell bogus cell phones out of his trench coat at this event while it looks like phifedawg is FURIOUS because, due to new legislation in Canada, Mizuno's are no longer legal for play here. We do have a nice set of vintage Spaldings to loan him though.

But have a diverse menu of Bacon, bacon and bacon for breakfast lunch and dinner with beer for breakfast lunch and dinner (we have milk for Cogolfer). So let’s tee it up and may the best man, woman or child win!

(p.s. Watch out for the bears! They seem to be partial to people that play Srixon's. There's a .308 in my cart if you need it.)

 

Looking for Amigo's!!
