Quiet, please... It's the 18th green. Bill is down a stroke. Unbeknownst to his wife, he has bet their lives on winning this round.
About this creation
Bill has a gambling problem. It started when he put down a sizable bet he couldn't really afford on the Seahawks beating the Steelers in the '06 Super Bowl. When he couldn't pay up, his bookie (in the employ of the Scarpacci crime family) was kind enough to let him go double or nothing on that year's World Series -- as long as he took the Mariners. Bill knew that was the longest of long shots, but figured it would buy him some time. With the '06 baseball season long over, and the Scarpaccis getting impatient with poor old Bill's excuses, he was given one more chance. It so happens that he and Vito Scarpacci, son of the Don, share a passion for golf. If Bill can defeat Vito in a round at the links, the debt is forgiven. If not...

That unorthodox one-handed putting style isn't going to do him any favors.

The hole looks much better, but standard green does not work well for a golf green in this vignette.

Using that hole technique the golf ball may find it impossible to get into both holes. |

I have known some Japanese female golfers to use that technique. Btw, I often like to make comments that people can find crudely insulting or hilarious when taken out of context. |
