The Great Consilium Golf Trivia Challenge, Part Deux

Yesterday we provided you with a taste of the hard-core golf trivia contest that transformed the first ever Consilium Cup Gold Tournament from a pleasant round of nine holes of best ball to a teeth-gnashing exercise in recall.

And THOSE were the easy questions.

You see, there are TWO obsessions at Consilium. Golf is one. The other is movies. And the second part of the trivia contest combined the two, challenging our golfers to identify lines from the greatest golf movies or scenes of all time.

Ready? Okay. Which movies (which are not all "golf' movies, incidentally) gave us the following lines?

1) "This is a hybrid. This is a cross, ah, of Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia. The amazing stuff about this is, that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus-belt that night on this stuff."

2) "He can't do that to our pledges! Only WE can do that to our pledges!!"

3) "Easy peasy lemon squeasy."

4) "If that's his original ball, I'm Arnold Palmer".
"It isn't".
"How do you know?"
"Because I'm standing on it."

5) "You little son of a bitch ball! Why you don't you just go HOME? That's your HOME! Are you too good for your HOME? ANSWER ME!"

6) "The feds had been watching Nicky play golf for so long that they ran out of gas. A hundred dollars to whoever hits the plane!"

7) "You should have children playing here! You should have families having picnics! You should have a goddamned petting zoo! But NO! You got these stupid electric carts for you old men with nothing better to do! And now you're gonna die wearing that stupid little hat!"

8) "I wish they wouldn't land those things here when we're trying to play golf."

9) "I hear you lost your swing. I guess we got to go find it."



Tomorrow: The answers. Promise.
