Cemetary golfing shows Michigan golfers to be a macabre bunch

When you combine Michigan, home of Bigfoot hunters, Brandon Tucker and Michael Moore, with avid golfers, things are bound to get a touch wonky.

Which could perhaps explain why graveyards in Michigan have become the hot new place to practice one’s golf game.

From NPR:

Some golfers have taken an interest in a cemetery in Washington Township, Mich. The graveyard is apparently not a bad place to practice. And a woman named Erin Robb has proof. She found about 700 golf balls amid the graves. She has complained, since her brother was recently buried there. Town officials say they’ll try to stop the disrespect. Then again, you could imagine some late lamented golfers who might not mind at all.

Seriously Michiganers, what in the hell is wrong with you people? You’re acting like your from Iowa.

Grass is green. What color is grass?
