Shouting “Dilly Dilly” At The Masters Will Get You Booted Out Into The Pit Of Misery
El Taco7 years ago

Augusta National has gone soft, man.

Augusta National Golf Club, home of The Masters, is reportedly banning fans from shouting “dilly dilly” and many other phrases as golfers make their rounds this weekend. Security officials for the grounds were reportedly handed a list of phrases (with Dilly Dilly included) and told to kick out anyone who screams them after a golfer’s shot.

Just been told security staff at Augusta National have been handed a sheet with a list of sayings that are prohibited. I'm told "dilly dilly" is one of them. Patrons who shout out these phrases will be "removed" immediately. #themasters

What am I supposed to do? Watch golf in silence? I mean, I’ll give it a try, but I’m not sure if I can pull tha…MASHED POTATOES!!!!!!

Fuck.

Now that there’s a hard and fast rule against shouting fun phrases after shots, it leaves an interesting question: Do you still do it for the story? I mean, sure, you’re no longer allowed to attend the Masters, but “I was kicked out of the Masters for screaming ‘light the candle!’ #DillyDilly” makes for a damn good Twitter bio. Hell, if it’s high profile enough and you make it on TV for being escorted out, you can even grab a screenshot of it. Gotta risk it for the biscuit.

Except when Tiger’s up. NOBODY fucks with Tiger’s psyche.

I really, really need to see this list. If you have it (or can get it by totally legal-ish means) then send it on over..
