In the afternoon, everyone headed over to Threetops for a fun nine hole, par three event. Matches were scored using the Stableford system to determine individual match winners. Each match is worth two points, and the team with the most points will be declared the winner. Team Mr. A picked up 8 points to capture the victory and $300 in team money. The highlight of the event, as all participants surrounded the 9th green waiting for the last group to hit, as Rich "Seve" Bieszki stepped up to the tee, he was greeted by everyone setting off their car alarms.
