So there you are teeing off with a few friends,looking forward to a nice game of golf and the next thing you know....

Golfer Killed After Cart Plunges 75 Feet Off Cliff

Poor bastard.

FALLBROOK, Calif. (AP) - A 65-year-old golfer died Tuesday after his golf cart plunged 75 feet off a cliff and crashed into a road below, authorities said.

The man teed off with three friends on the second hole of the Pala Mesa Resort Golf Course in northern San Diego County at around 10 a.m. and then got into his cart.

The vehicle veered off the concrete pathway, traveled down a 25-foot embankment and went over the edge of a cliff, California Highway Patrol spokesman Tom Kerns said.

The recently retired real estate agent from Irvine was ejected shortly before the cart hit the road beneath the cliff and died on impact, Kerns said. His name was not immediately released.

No one else was involved in the crash.

Investigators will inspect the golf cart for mechanical failures, Kerns said.

One of these things is not like the others.

I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours, but I think that God's got a sick sense of humor...

Oh, and to add to the golf puns:

He should've got a ruiling before he drove off.

Too bad he didn't fall into a manhole. That would have been the ultimate irony.

I've heard of taking a drop, but that's ridiculous....

that's why old people shouldn't drive

Great. In a couple of years the guberment will be mandating seat belt usage in golf carts.

I'm just guessing here, but I doubt it was being ejected from the cart that killed him.

If they post on ChiefsPlanet I'll be the first one to edit my comments. Unless they actually post here, then there's really no reason to worry about it.
