    We play fantasy golf with a bunch my friends' dads and uncles. Mainly to keep them engaged with society. The fantasy league is run through PGA Tour Fantasy Golf, which had its own app until this year, when they wrapped it into the main PGA app. It's a disaster. But you need to use the app, or you'll forget to set your lineup and the old men never shut up if they win.

    You guys don't all do this?

    I haven't played golf in 5+ years. Was decent in law school when I had a ton of free time, then would just get frustrated at how bad I was in my late 20s. Been thinking of picking it back up again but not sure.

    Still follow it closely, though. Not downloading the app.

    my in-laws do this with some of their friends and family to a certain degree, They all pick a golfer to win whatever tournament is on that weekend and then they spend the whole tourney shit-talking each others picks' performances via group text. They really enjoy the fuck out of it

    Honestly probably the most fun I had in Austin was when I could still day drink and not get plastered and play 18 holes in the summer.

    There's a fun course outside of San Marcos, Flying Armadillo, where we played that has a full 18 and then a full putt-putt course with art/obstacles. Did that a couple years ago on an Austin Boys trip.

    Honestly, I started paying attention last year and won the league and beating those retired fuckers and taking their $20 felt good.

    Frisbee is a trademark of Wham-o which is why people usually say Ultimate instead of Ultimate Frisbee now. Blame those fuckboys for keeping the working man down imo.

    Tbf they are different designs but same concept. I know a guy who was big into ultimate and gets incredibly frustrated playing dg because it doesn't translate like you'd think.
