Everyone remembers that shocking incident at last year's final round at Hoylake, where little-known Scottish golfer Jocky Loch Ballantyne-McSock, distracted by a tinny rendition of Gnarls Barkley's Crazy emitted by a cellphone, exploded in a tear-streaked, shrieking fit of rage and brutally hacked the specator to death with a lob wedge.
In response to the tragic death, British golfish authorites have forbidden cellphones at the forthcoming 2007 open, siding with players after years of trying to keep visitors happy: "There is no other reasonable option other than a complete ban," said an anonymous spokesman.
All because irresponsible blaggards couldn't be bothered to put their handsets in vibrate mode.
