sandwedge 30 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Note: This is a bump from 2009.So, I had the day off and went out for a nice round of golf. I almost stayed at home and sat around the house, but didn't. I paid for twilight rate, which meant I could play as many holes as i wanted before dark, but after 18, both the 1 and 10 tees were taken, so I decided to head home.However, on the way to the car, I decided to take advantage of the free balls on the driving range. Went there, and hit maybe 30 balls. Felt kind of tired and thought I'd call it a day. Drove the cart to my car. As I was loading my clubs in my trunk, I suddenly felt sick to my stomach. I thought, damn, I need to get inside and cool off and get a cold drink. (FWIW, I had had plenty of water on the course).Then it hit me. It felt like the sun was just BAKING me. I threw the rest of my stuff in the trunk, and drove to the clubhouse (This all took maybe a minute). I thought I was going to throw up outside, but I managed to get to the bathroom, without throwing up. I must have blacked out for a moment, because I woke up sitting on a toilet (lid closed) with my pants unzipped and belt unbuckled. I knew this was bad, and immediately headed for the restaurant where I knew there would be some people...I woke up with somebody standing over me saying "You just got knocked the F*** out". Well, not really, He was saying "Hey are you ok?", but I didn't need to answer, because he looked at me and said "Stay there!" and went calling for help. A group of people gathered around me and placed a towel on my head, and I realized I had a gash. I actually felt pretty good at the moment, and actually told them what to do to help me ... Ice pack to the neck, towel fanning me from above.Nobody saw me fall, but we figured from the evidence that I had fallen face first into an outward facing corner in the wall. I think now that I probably hit the corner with the right side of my face, and then hit the floor on the left side of my face (since my left jaw is now starting to hurt like shit). When the paramedics arrived, I asked the paramedic how bad it was and he replied " Man, you tried to scalp yourself".So basically, I got taken to the hospital and received a few stitches to my chin, and a bunch of stitches to my face.I won't try to say that the moral of the story is to stay hydrated, don't over exert yourself, and all of that. I will say what I learned from this... When you need help, yell for it. Don't try to do it yourself. If I had immediately called for help rather than trying to take care of it myself, I wouldn't have fallen like that.So anyway, since I know many of you would like to see it (another warning... It's ugly).... Link to post Share on other sites

coesillian 0 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 oh my god. That is insane. I would not have guessed that was only from a face plant. It's bad but at least you didn't lose an eye or any motor functions. It's not like you had good looks to start off with j/kheal well! Link to post Share on other sites

I've never seen one (until today ), but I've played with people who have.I like your line of thinking here. I am however, upset that you didn't ask what I shot.94 , but I beat the temperature by 3.
