Hole in one

A few months ago a golfer did something that most golfers only dream of... he made a hole in one. As the game of golf goes, holes in one are not as rare as you might think, but it is still extremely difficult to make one. My step dad, Cliff, golfs a lot and has made two in his lifetime. Many, many golfers play their entire lives and never make one. So what's so special about this particular golfer and his hole in one? Well, get this:

A 103-year-old Florida golfer has made history, becoming the oldest person to record a hole-in-one.
Gus Andreone achieved his special feat on “Wacky Wednesday” at the Palm Aire Country Club in Sarasota.
His friends watched in disbelief as his drive on the 113-yard 14th hole on the Lakes Course rolled into the cup.

Wanna know the kicker? This guy made about 8 other holes in one before this one (all when he was much younger of course). But still... 103 years old? Are you kidding me? At 103 most men are either dead or unable to leave their own home. Ol' Gus is out shooting golf and making aces. You go, Gus!
