2015 Players®

My opinion is that there should be no alcohol sales at a PGA Tour event. Sorry! Just not the place for inebriated idiots. If removing alcohol from Tour events upsets some folks and they stay away... GREAT! Those are the folks causing most of the trouble.
 
The announcers seem to try to pretend the bubalooie bs isn't happening. I assume that is a conscious decision by the networks, pga etc.

Do they fear drawing attention to it will make it worse?

I would think pointing out how fucktarded they are on international tv would have a mitigating effect.

The events would lose too much money, never happen.
 
Regarding behavior... It is all about expectations. Tell people this is the expectation and bounce their ass if they do not meet the expectation.

The Masters does not have this problem.


Exactly. The Masters does not have this problem as they will deal with it including taking away your ability to attend future Masters no matter how long the tickets have been in your family. If the Players wants to be the fifth major, maybe they should start behaving like a major when it comes to crowd control.

Even negative press is good press... to a fucktard. Same rationalization as a streaker. A day in the drunk tank and the $250 fine is worth the attention they get from the bros down at Kappa Omega Kappa.
 
In fairness I think the crowd were more rooting for Ricky ...

... and the commentators. It was palpable.

Btw, $1.8M can do a lot of things for you. :)

Removing alcohol will never happen...that's a huge money maker. This is like banning recess for all kids because some kids sneak off and smoke on recess. When does this ever work? Never, it just pisses off everyone.

The best thing to do in this case would be what they do for streakers...don't call attention to hit. Run the broadcast on a slight delay and remove crowd audio when someone yells something stupid..better yet pipe in canned crowd noise so it's not known if someone even yelled. If there's no fame to be gotten, there's no reason to yell.

If you can pinpoint them in the crowd, remove them.

Yes! Shitty part is when they show a replay and STILL leave the yell in there. For fux sake mute that asshole on the replay!
 
Thank God they haven't fired anyone for SIIHB vulgarities.
