usually Friday which was my favorite day to go - you have a leader board and all the golfers are still playing.
Then the man who was giving me the badges died - no more badges.

Man, I miss the old days......

My grandfather started getting 4 badges in the 50's. He was in sales at BASF and would use them to entertain customers. Sometime in the late 70's, his secretary forgot to send in the application, and they cut him down to two badges (no clue if she got fired or not).
I would go with him or my dad for at least one round throughout the 80's, but my Dad never got on the waiting list himself (or signed me up for it) because he assumed my grandfather's badges would convey.
Late 80's/early 90's, I was in high school and still hitting a couple rounds each year, and we would always skip class one day to for a practice round, which was as easy as showing up and paying your $15.
Mid-90's, which I regret the most, a good friend got into ticket-scalping on a large scale, and since my grandfather was too old to go and my Dad not interested, He'd give me $5k for all 4 days. I'd pay every penny of that and more back to go back and go to those rounds with my other grandfather, which was an option then and I hate that I chose money over that experience.
Late 90's, my grandfather became ill....we figured that we'd have a few years that I could order badges and write a check for them (we share the same name) after he'd passed but before they caught on, but nope, when he passed in 1999 we had a letter from Augusta National within 2 weeks offering their condolences and regretting to tell us that badges wouldn't convey.
It was extra special when I did hit the lottery in 2018, but it still wasn't quite the same, with the new entrances to the club and crowds on a level I'd never seen in the old days, but it was special nonetheless. I'll might never get selected again, but I'll keep entering.
