Dray Crashes Bola. Next Stop - Hollywood!

In preparation for the upcoming 2012 La Buena Bola, The Hosel Rocket is pleased to reprint the following story from the 2010 Bola.

In the most brazen breech of etiquette seen since Dave McCallum's bowels caused an on-course rest room to burst into flames, Bob Dray successfully crashed the party at this week's La Buena Bola Member-Guest tournament.

Photographed above in the 19th hole, Mr. Dray first began to arouse suspicion when he attempted to enter the tournament Skills Challenge, and was subsequently found with a shopping bag containing three sleeves of Pro-V1 golf balls, a pair of new sunglasses, a golf shirt with tournament logo, and eight hot dogs.

"What's all the fuss about?" commented Dray. "The club said it was a member-guest event, not a member and guest. If I had known I had to bring a guest to get all this free stuff, I would have gladly done so. Though I've already eaten the hot dogs, I'll gladly return the rest of the stuff. The shirt was too big anyway, and the logo made my arm itch."

In a serendipitous turn of events, a prospective new golf member, actor Owen Wilson, was at LCCC yesterday during a brief trip home from Hollywood, and observed Dray being escorted off the property (sans shopping bag). In learning of Dray's attempt to crash The Bola, Wilson found the perfect theme for the long-awaited sequel to his blockbuster 2005 film, Wedding Crashers.

"Dude, I gotta' tell you, 'Bola Crashers' is going to be HUGE," Wilson said in an exclusive interview with The Hosel Rocket. "A movie about an old dude who has more more money than God, yet gets his kicks from crashing golf tournaments for free swag?! It's going to sell a ton of tickets, and I'm totally stoked that Bob agreed to sell us his story. We're flying him and his entourage out to Hollywood next week for screen tests, and we've already got Clint Eastwood on-board to play his stunt double. If all goes well, we intend to cast John Ehlert in the role of his golfing sidekick, kind of like a modern day Hope and Crosby duo."

Look for Bola Crashers in theatres near you during Labor Day weekend. Congratulations, Bob!
