10th Annual LBI, a Retrospective: "the others"

If you've never seen "The Others" with Nicole Kidman, go out this weekend and watch.  One of the best thrillers I've seen.  That being said, this edition of Replacing Divots is not about ghost movies; nor is about Roadhouse for that matter.  And hell, while we're on the topic, has anyone seen this bank robbery movie called The Town?

Anyway........As we at COCKS have been compiling and tabulating all the events seen at LBI over the years, it has become increasingly difficult to whittle down to a top ten.  For that reason, we are going to start with some of the events that, while they didn't make the top ten, were nonetheless worthy of mention in the archives of COCKS.

One last note before we begin this.  Nothing was voted on, nor certified by Price Waterhouse Coopers.  They are simply the opinion of us COCKS. And remember this when you disagree with the order; we are COCKS. The intent, quite frankly, is to be provocative; to generate discussion and remember the times spent being dummies in Myrtle Beach.

And with that, we present "The Others":



Nude Barz:
- Let's just be blunt.  You do NOT want a late night visit from Barz.  If there's anyone at or near the center of mayhem off the course in Myrtle, it's Barz.  Mentally, he scares you and here's the reason:  he doesn't need to be drunk to engage in craziness.  It could be 8am after a night of drinking, you're sitting on your couch, you look down to take a sip of Joe, you look up and you have balls in the face.  Frnakly, there could be a top ten Nude Barz moments if we wanted to.  He's even spawned copy cat nudists (eh hem, Tini, Jimmy).

Trouble T-Roy and his disappearing cellphone:
- If you look up easy-going, laid back and go with the flow, you'll  see a picture of Troy.  There was a time, however, when Troy enjoyed visiting certain establishments.  And there were a few times, in consecutive years, where he left his phone there...and didn't realize it until he was safely back home in Northern VA.  Thanks to the care of the proprietors, he was able to get his phone mailed back to him.

Saps' "faulty windshield" at Long Bay:
- Before we knew Saps was so full of rage that the virus from 28 Days was named after him (Rage Virus, in case you haven't seen it; ps seriously, have you seen the Town?) no one in his group thought twice when he came driving up with the cart's front windshield in the passenger side.  "Uh, a screw came loose, mr Ranger" was the line he used when the ranger drove up and asked what happened.  And he wonders why all the ranges in Myrtle target him...

Bernard and Pierre:
- remember that year when Brett (Bernard) and Saps (Pierre) talked with a french accent pretty much the entire week?

The Year of the Bern:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GOuseeGK3w
Here's the only thing that needs to be said


The Year "oh nooooooo" was heard on virtually every hole.

The Roll of Paper Towels:
- Ears of corn were flying.  Moden heaved, CT got clipped, rage ensued.  If ever there was a record scratching moment in Myrtle, this was it.  As Gary said in the bar scene in Weird Science "Party's over, boys and girls".  They did, however, immediately make up with a make up shot of Jim Beam.

The Bunion Buzzer:
- You better have something good to say or you'll get buzzed for telling a Bunion.


The Shotgun walk off to nowhere...
- four things make this video great
    1) bryan's unreal shotgun skills
    2) moden's horrendous shotgun skills
    3) T-Bone's commentary
    4) where the F is kevin going???
enjoy...
-


So, that's it for now.  That's the list of things that didn't make the Top Ten or Honorable mention.  What do you think? Any of them worthy of top ten?

Stay tuned...tomorrow's release will be 10-9-8.  We've got some surprises in there for you...
