It's not Japan, it's Korea. What they're doing is a kid's game there. Grab your leg, hop and try and knock the other guy over. The game was some kind of exhibition game and the players were goofing around.

Still, this is WTF fodder. I mean, seriously.

This WOULD make golf somewhat watchable, though.

Figure me this:

Why the hell would anyone go to see golf live? Seriously, I can't think of anything more boring. You can't even see the ball after they've hit it.

It's actually amazing to see what those guys are capable of in person. It is actually easier than you think to watch the ball once you see a few shots in person.

Oh, and they sell lots of beer and liquor in tents scattered around the course.

This guy knows whats goin' on. I got to see Tiger play 2 years in a row (when he was at his best). Just sitting at that dogleg and watching these 300+ yard t-shots land within 20 ft of each other and then watching them stick the green every time is AMAZING.

Plus, you can watch them practice putting and sink 15-20 10-footers in a row, one-handed.

I don't really like golf but it's cool to walk around the golf courses during an event.

I always thought golf could be improved if the player was never allowed to leave the golf cart or allow it to fall below 5mph, now that i would watch

What will the caddy be doing while you spectate golf? picking your hotdog sizes?

But the expensive tickets are to seats near a hole.

But I guess you get to watch putting and such.

[–]parasocks 0 points1 point ago

lol, the expensive tickets are free - corporate sponsored, open bar, free oysters and shrimp, catered all day... Mmmmmmmm.

It's a field bar. You get to drink and meet people all while dodging golf balls. Fun to be had by all.

its a good opportunity to study the pros swings, and club selection in different situations.

Only people who play golf enjoy watching golf. I could (and have) watch it all day

[–][deleted] 20 points21 points ago

Ahahaha. Whenever I'm at my dad's and he's watching golf he'll invariably fall asleep, and of course wake up the second I change the channel.

Any Asian thing on the internet is automatically flagged as Japanese by default, no matter what its origin.

[–]cupids_hitman 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Nah, it's just that most of the really weird stuff USUALLY comes from Japan.

[–]the2belo 1 point2 points ago

Except for half the stuff I see on Reddit, including this post.
