Joe’s Ace

OK, so maybe it’s not a real ace, and maybe its not exactly good etiquette to laugh when a pedestrian gets hit by a disc, but dangit, I think this is funny. This was a group of my friends and me on a recent roadtrip to play Lucky Mud, where we stopped to first play a round at Trojan. Before I get angry comments and emails, I’d like to point out that we did have a spotter out, and he did say fore, and though the guy got hit, the disc was slowed down considerably by skipping on the pavement. Part of what makes it so funny is that Joe has an uncanny knack of shanking a disc towards people, particularly little kids–this time he missed the kids. I don’t know if this is one of those situations where you have to know the people involved for to really find it funny, but for me, I laugh every time I watch that clip. And I always have to watch it at least two or three times.
