Wow--concession prices are cheaper than high school football games.

I have been very lucky with the Masters. While a sales manager from 99-07, I got badges to take customers at least one round each year. But I was truly lucky in 08 when my brother had his name picked and became the owner of two badges.

I have been with customers, friends, my dad and my wife through the years but this year is special for me. I get to take my 8 year old son to Saturday and Sunday rounds. Having battled cancer two of the last three years, I was worried I wouldn't live long enough to see him be an appropriate age to take. But this weekend will be somewhat emotional for me having my son get to walk with his daddy through these hallowed grounds. Been cancer free for over a year now and hope to have many more walks with him through Augusta National. Just feel very blessed to for sure have this year.

That gave me chills. Have a great time, man.

I still enjoy the hell outta just going to a Bama game with my dad (season ticket holders, so we go at least 7 times a year), so I know your son is gonna have an amazing time.

The first thing that stood out to me was how cheap the food is......thats awesome! The next was that you thought this guy should be a CFB linebacker but I just don't see it, he doesn't look like one AT ALL to me!

Yeah concession prices are cheap. Its awesome. The stuff in the gift shop or whatever you want to call it is very very reasonable too. I wouldnt say cheap but I was pleased with them. I thought they were cheaper than shite at the zurich

Pretty refreshing if you ask me. It is almost worth going just to have a good excuse to drop the phone for awhile.


I enjoyed using the free phones to call the few people that I knew their number off the top of my head.

I'm bigger than Westy.

But compared to the field, he's not small.

Sounds like an LSU linebacker! Seriously though he isn't built like the linebackers I have seen, even at decent high schools.

He has seemed to bulk up the past year or so, compared to earlier in his career.
