Yttrium Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 Pretty sad when Tim Skarperud lives right in town and isn't on the list. Is now on list. The invitation list grows daily. The hopes of the event is to have the majority of the field affiliated with Fighting Sioux Hockey. There will be others too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxforeverbaby Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Stand on the Tee on Hole #1 wearing something skimpy! No, don't do that. I have no idea. Just show up? can't i wait until the end, and blow them out of the water with them thinking why did I waste all my time on those other girls? Just joking, might have to come back to GF just for this.

Goon Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Maybe he's as "good" a golfer as I am. Skarp is a pretty golfer probably scratch or close to scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Is there ANY way to meet some of these guys without golfing?! Beer cart driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big A HG Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Skarp is a pretty golfer probably scratch or close to scratch. One of the best in town. I'm pretty sure Karl Goehring lives in GF too in the summer. Not 100%, but pretty sure. I know he has the last couple summers anyway. Last year he had something going on, maybe this year as well.

Brasco Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Anyone know if the list of players playing has been updated? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND85 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 We drove up for the autograph session but only 4 players could be there for that. One of the Marvins had passed away and a lot of the celebrities went up for the funeral. Signing were Smaby,Porter, JP Lammy and Oshie. I didn't see any results or hear about the golfing the following day. Did anyone on this forum play in it? TJ said he was going to be #74 for the Blues.
