Those golfers looked genuinely upset. A little bit of supposed innocent fun can end up in a pile of trouble.

Thanks a lot for that. I enjoyed every minute of that.

Disagree. Swinging the club toward the kid was not cool, but those old gents could have whooped up some serious ass on those skinny little punks. I could lift one 3 feet off the ground with one punch.

Ask Joe Bob. He always stands in my corner. And I'm 66 and can run like a deer.

Oh, he wasn't going all that fast. He didn't catch the kid, did he? He got in 25 yards and pooped out. Still, he's on the course pulling his bag, not riding in a cart. Probably got some legs.

Old fuchs can be treacherous. Maybe they had a couple of shots at the turn.

You forget that many of these "old farts" as you call them fought in the war and were trained to kill people. Almost every one of my close friends were special forces in Vietnam and could still snap a young pup's neck in an instant...

Its kinda like the saying "never mess with an old fart, they will not waste time hurting you, you will be dead"...

My grandfather was in his late 60s buying a weedeater or something at a local store, had it on the ground at his feet when this 40ish year old dude came up and tried to take it (last one). My grandfather told him, "That's mine, I'm buying it. That's why it was sitting there."

Young guy, "Well it's mine now."

Yeah, that didn't go over well. Gramps was about 5'8" and 140#. Open handed slap to the face and the young guy was on the ground. Gramps got the weedeater.

I've heard it as, "Never mess with old guys, if they can't kick your ass they'll just kill you"

When I was a little kid in the late '60s, I used to hang around the gas station sometimes on a busy corner by my house. I loved cars and the guys who worked there were all characters. I could write a book.

The weekend crew was two old guys who moonlighted, they had regular jobs during the week. One of them was named Harvey, I think he was a tree trimmer. He was the worst drunk I've ever seen in my life. His nickname was "Swede", which is funny in itself because nearly everyone in Minneapolis was Swedish in those days. The other one was Joe. He was a groundskeeper for the city parks and golf courses. Both guys were in their 50s at least and Joe was tougher than a $2 steak. Short, well-built and in perfect health despite the Camel straight in his mouth.

One weekend, Joe showed up with a black eye. I asked him what happened, he said, "nothing". Later on, a couple of his park board buddies showed up and one said, "you sure had your way with those 3 guys on the golf course yesterday!"

I still laugh thinking about those tough old buzzards 40 years later. Especially as I'm in my 50s now.

I am trying to get a grip on this. I could imagine young boys setting this up, filming it etc. But I could not imagine finding some old guys to play the golfers. Unless u paid them big $$$???!!!

This would be a good video to show your kids. Especially if they have (or had!)remote controlled cars.

Even if it's fake, it is still funny...
