How much for a beer?

Coffee,Egg Salad, Pimento Cheese, Bag of Crisps, Candy Bar, Muffin, Fruit Cup - all $1.50
Chicken Salad, Pulled Pork, Breakfast Sandwich, Chicken Biscuit - all $3.00
Gatorade, Soda - $3.50
Domestic Beer, Import Beer - $5.00
Masters Signature Beer - $6.00
White Wine - $6.00
Georgia Peach Ice Cream Sandwich - $3.00
No tipping

Sampled all in bold. No hard liquor on premises, no one yelling Mashed POTATO and shit like that. Domestic Beer was Miller Lite, Import Beer was Stella I believe. All cups for all drinks were collectable items, so they save a ton on recyling and trash. Actually saw people digging in trash areas for empty cups people had discarded.

Did you wear your county colours?

Shane hit it very close to that same pin on Wednesday. He is a hole in one machine at the moment!

Much to my Dad's chagrin, I did not. Been a few years since the McAleer and Rush has fitted all that well!

You didn't try the Pimento Cheese?! Isn't that THE quintessential Masters sandwich?

The way they run it is awesome for sure. It's so prestigious and makes so much money they cheerfully forego tens, if not hundreds, of millions of revenue every year to keep it exactly as they want it.

Great moment from Shane on 6.

The holes I've seen of Rory is he is just about surviving.

For those of you watching in the states why channel are you watching on? I've look at ESPN + and Paramount + but the are following Scheffler and Brooks groups and then you have the coverage like at amen corner...pain in the arse

It is, and I didn't. One of the guys who had been before said it was American cheese slices all mushed up with the other stuff including pimento - neither of them flavours I am a big fan of.

Bang on the money RE: The Money. That being said, the wait times for the merchandise tents were about 30-50 minutes depending on time of day. I would say the average spend per person through the gate on merchandise alone is around $600 (and I feel that might be conservative - it could hover around $1000/person). I read they are on pace for $1million per hour this year

Don't wanna carry it all day? There's a storage option. Wanna ship it all home? Right this way sir we will have you in and out of shipping in about 10 minutes.

I had budgeted $1500 in my mind but got so completely overwhelmed with the most polite and organized version of black friday that I checked out for $500 and a lot of people are gonna be disappointed that they didn't get anything home. It was overwhelming in that merchandise area, they let you through in groups of about 500 people at a time.

Also, women in golf gear - whole different deal. Come a long way since the Laura Davies era.

One last cool thing I will mention, we were lucky to be parallel with an interview conducted with Jack on 15 fairway. That once giant of a man is so small and frail looking right now, I am curious how many years we have left with him.

CBS/Paramount should have the full broadcast.

This is a great overview of it all.

[Tony Baloney]

Big Sunday ahead by the looks of it unless Rory monsters the back 9.

[Aaron Boone]

The Top 10 all under par for the day except Rory (so far).
