SIG GOLF TOURNAMENT 2014 - HOAKALEI COUNTRY CLUB

SIG GOLF TOURNAMENT 2014
HOAKALEI COUNTRY CLUB

The Service Industry Golf (SIG) Tournament is unique in many ways.  One great thing is that each year this tournament raises money for local charities.  The other thing is that it is a really good time if you are not taking your golf game seriously on this day.  It is pretty much a party on a golf course.  The day begins with the Miller/Coors girls filling the cart ice chests with beer.  The beer continues to flow during check in as the "course hostesses" hit you up to buy raffle tickets.  This year you could buy golf balls marked with your number.  The balls were dropped from a helicopter onto the practice green.  If your numbered ball made it in a cup, you could win a trip to Las Vegas or other prizes.  Pretty cool to see the helicopter make its way to the green.  Pretty scary too as the guy in the copter leaned out the door and poured the balls over the green.  After the ball drop all of the caddies were lined up and introduced.  They were auctioned off in groups of two with the money going to charity.  The caddies went for a few hundred dollars up to a few thousand dollars for those who wanted to bid.  Once on the course the caddies were drinking, dancing, golfing and making sure everyone had a great time.  As you might imagine, this tournament was long.  Many groups would come up to a hole serving a particular beverage and then just hang out.  Sometime there were 20 or more people on a hole and not one person was golfing.  Golf carts were flying everywhere and I saw more fender benders in five hours here than I have seen in 3 years of golfing.
Things got a little crazy with dancing and gymnastics on some of the greens.  People started to let loose and there was a lot of slurring of words by the end of the round.  I managed to stay sober and enjoyed watching the mayhem.  Had an awesome time but just did not get wrecked like many.  Really enjoyed this tournament.  Probably the funnest one next to our own tournament which is coming up in August.  For info on my tournament go to www.coolingcancer.org
