Putting around


Recently, city officials challenged OU administration to a contest of wills. The challenge? Putt Putt.

Here is Kent and the Mayor Wiehl making a game plan.


The OU consortium, consisting of the wrestling coach (Joel Greenlee) and finance guy (Chris Clifford), are all smiles with their logo-ed apparel, ready to take on the fight.



Tricky putt for the Kentman.  Oh yeah, he made it.


Is that a legal use of equipment?  

This particular hole is sponsored by the local hot dog dealer, O'Betty's.  They have all beef hotdogs, as well as veggie dogs.  They do some fun toppings, my favorite is the one with mushrooms, swiss cheese, and mayo.  mmmmm good. So anyway, O'Betty's added their own twist to the game of putt putt by adding these balls that are rolled down the course and act as hazards. Clever huh?

In the end, the scores were tied!  Can you believe it!  But Kent did have the lowest score with a 44. Five under par. And he won some WD-40.

This event was a sneak preview of the newly refurbished putt putt course in Athens.  Each hole was sponsored by a local business to help pay for the renovation.  Sunday, May 11 is the official grand opening, so if you are in Athens, stop by. It's free, too.  Otherwise, it will be open on the weekends during the day for anyone to play.  This event was a fundraiser for HAVAR and the mediation services of Athens.
