The Who of the FGO

Here are some fun facts about FGO participation over the years (all stats include 2008)…

• Ken is the only person to attend every FGO (14)

• Dan Bennett holds the record for brevity (2 holes, one swing)

• There have been 28 participants since 1995 (including Dano’s Ribcident and Tom Hanson’s 1-day replacement (Mugford) in 2005).

• The given-name “Tom” is the most popular participant moniker (Dobry, Giberson, Hanson, Hamilton)

• “Jim” is tied with “Mike” with 3 (Nuttal/Obberly/Jenkins; Reynolds/Keller/Kamish)

• There is only one “Shad” (the person, and the trophy)

In the immortal words of Young MC (with an assist from Flea) “w’ll break it down for ya fellas…”
