The "Get in the Hole!" shouters at PGA matches...?

Question

I find it annoying at all times, but especially when it's the tee shot on a par 5 hole. I mean, into what hole, exactly, are these...persons...urging the ball?

Sorry, I know I'm venting a little, but I welcome your thoughts

Answer 1

Guys who haven't been laid for a long while.

Answer 2

Very irritating, yes. Am curious to know how that all got started.

Answer 3

its soo rediculous anymore but the US Open is the worst for this. the british open and the masters require a dress code for the fans so they don't draw as many rednecks as the US open. but your right they are retarded

Answer 4

you are correct in that golf is not a gentlemans game anymore! and i dont even golf.

Answer 5

i would love to hear someone yell "Get in the Hole" when a guy is punching out into the fairway.

Answer 6

It is a little ridiculous when they say get in the hole on a par 5 lol... I guess it's their way of cheering and getting into it because golf is so laid back at times... Maybe just tradition lol

Answer 7

I guess so when they get home & talk to their buddies @ work on Monday, they can have the conversation...."Did you hear that really loud hillbilly yell get in the hole  when Tiger hit his drive on the 13th hole.....guess what? That was me!" What a bunch of knuckleheads.

Answer 8

What's more annoying is when people click cameras when guys are swinging. It's like, are you really so stupid that you don't realize that everyone around you is not moving and completely silent! Why the heck would you click the freaking camera!!! I hate how Tiger is ready to go on a shot then he has to stop because of these idiots.

Answer 9

It's pretty silly, but these guys are probably drunk and just wanted to get some attention to themselves.

Answer 10

I think the fans out in Southern California and some of the biggest idiots I have seen.  I feel the need to vent to..thanks
