Alice Cooper = Monster Golfer


My boyfriend’s parents are visiting Hawaii right now and ran into this guy the other day on the 
golf course! It turns out 
Vincent Damon Furnier (aka Alice Cooper but for the purposes of this blog we will go with Alice) is one hell of a golfer! They think they may even be distantly related! He tagged along with my boyfriend’s dad for a round and they both shot an awesome round and then Alice asked him out for another round the next day! Pretty cool, eh? Now, Alice did beat my boyfriend’s dad but it makes for one pretty cool story! You never know who you will run into out in the big, bad world!

It turns out Alice Cooper even has a book about slaying his personal demons with the help of golf!
I am still learning about golf so I hope my terminology has not offended anyone. I don’t dare to get into scores and handicaps…



Here is a great (non-golf) story from Alice Cooper care of George Strombolopolous’s Youtube channel:

Which Way Does Kate Swing? The Sound of Winning with Kate Bruce

This is the first real winner I have had on my Midday Show on Mountain FM. Usually I only get to give things away when I am on other people’s shows, but today I got to give away two 9-hole passes to Castlegar Golf Club & RV Park. Sharon called in and won her first radio contest ever by correctly guessing which way I swing.



It almost does not even matter which way I swing, I am that bad at golf. I have had one lesson from my boyfriend’s father and I am pretty sure I embarrassed him at the club he used to be the President of in Calgary. Taking Summer 2013 off to move was a horrible idea, I really need to spring for some lessons now that I am living the perfect part of the country for golf.

Congratulations to Sharon and a huge thank-you to my bosses (and Castlegar Golf Club & RV Park) for letting me give away prizes!
