The STANANDLOU putt-putt team proved the nay-sayers wrong and earned a good deal of respect in the Houston Putt-Putt/Advertising community with a strong third place finish in the first annual Ad2 Houston’s “Who’s Your Caddy” Putt-Putt Golf Tournament.

The STANANDLOU team, led by high-scoring captain Tiffany Morris, braved blistering humidity, unkempt greens, and sabotaged holes to garner an average score of 61.5.

“We really gelled as a team today,” remarked team member Scott Brinkmeyer. “I did

well on the first nine, but I was disappointed with my back end performance.” When asked about Scott’s back-end, other teams members were unavailable for comment.

“I enjoyed popping Crepe Myrtle buds and admiring the debris in the waterfall,” noted Matt Walsh, whose score of 43 is close to a national record, he thinks.

Although Team STANANDLOU did bring in one hole-in-one by ringer Justin Bantuelle, it was not enough to earn the coveted second or first place trophies, all of which were hand-crafted by local trophy artisan Crystal Land.

There was some confusion concerning the scoring of the event, with the winning team earning an average score of 26. Being the mathematically savvy programmer he is, Bantuelle complained, “That’s freakin’ impossible. They would have to each get 10 holes in one, and then par 2 for the remainder of the holes.’ No formal challenge was submitted, however, since team captain Morris’ early departure from the award ceremony left team STANANDLOU without an official representative.

“That’s total crap,” muttered Bantuelle, as he chucked his trophy across the parking lot, “We’ll show them next year. I’m getting a season pass here. That’s for damn sure.”

There were only four teams.
