I have a few from my dads days as a state legislator, but those would have to go in PARF.

One that wasn't Dem v Rep was the Speakers golf tournament. The Legislators often were paired with a lobbyist, a staffer and a guest of the lobby or speaker. He was paired with a former legistator turned lobbyist.

My dad could not hit it over the water on a short par 3. He emptied his own bag in his attempts, then told the lobbyist to give him some balls. After about 5 more in the drink, the lobbyist started to complain that he was running out of balls.

My dad said, "Whitworth, if you can't afford this game, why do you play?".
