Harrington "Steals Back" Claret Jug - Tour - Discussions

Tar Heel

Funny story out of the Tour Championship yesterday.... Stewart Cink brought the Claret Jug to East Lake, where he is a member, to do some interviews and put the trophy on display. Padrig saw the case that holds the trophy (recognizing it) and took the case and placed it in his locker. When Stewart went to his interview, the trophy was not there, and Cink was perplexed about where it could be.

A locker room attendant told him that Mr. Harrington had made off with it. Who knew Paddy was a prankster?

Don't let looks fool you. Just look at the eyes and Harrington has that devilish twinkle in his. I am not surprised that he did it, and the laughter probably was heard all the way back home for him.

too funny, I'm sure I'd do that as well if I were in that situation.

its nice to see some personality in the players today...too many are robotic and don't seem to enjoy the game.

TAR HEEL...congrats on reaching Ambassador status, I just noticed...it must have happened in the last couple of days--- congrats!!!

Harrington has a big time wild side. I was out with him till 4 in the morning after the Ryder Cup last year. He is full of surprises

nickpoz,

I feel it's your obligation as an Ambassador to elaborate! PLEASE! Were you partying with the whole team?

Incredible!

It was just the US team at first and then the European team crashed the party around midnight. Lots of incredible stories from the evening. Paddy was a wild man among most of the others. I have some pictures that I could use as blackmail if I ever wanted to ;) I might have one or two that might be suitable for posting on here, let me do some digging.
