Smashing the RC car was not too bad, but taking some swings at the kids with a gold club would have gotten those old guys arrested in SF and CA. Note the SF DA will most likely become the CA AG. She would probably file assault charges against one, or both of the golfers. We are living in interesting times.

The best "what not to do on a golf course" story I have is true and is my own. I was riding my new $30,000 Bimota exotic Italian sportbike with some friends many years back and went into a turn on a road right next to a golf course. I hit a patch of gravel doing about 90 MPH and ended up sliding off the road across the fairway of Hole #12 sliding on my back with my bike sliding not far behind me. There were two guys teeing off when I appeared in their view. The two guys, totally stunned thought I was dead. I jumped up after sliding hundreds of feet, picked up my bike, and shouted "FORE!" I didn't even get a bruise or scratch, just lots of grass stains on my leathers. My bike on the other hand had a big hole ground through the carbon fiber body work. News of the accident hit fast with friends calling me from as far away as California (this was in Ohio) to see if it was really true that I turned a $30,000 Italian sport bike into the most expensive golf cart in the world.

Years ago my friend had just joined a high end club here and invited 3 of us to play. On a par 5 there
was pond below the green. We were putting and as we looked down we saw one of our carts slowing backing (brake was off) into the lake with 2 sets of clubs, wallets and car keys. It seemed like it was all in slow motion and there was nothing any of us could do but watch it COMPLETELY submerge into the pond.
When we reached the pro shop news had spread, and in classic (Risky Business) fashion the head pro said to my friend "ok , who is the U Boat commander." Expensive outing.
