Today was my first day at the Dick’s Sporting Goods Open where I volunteer each year in the media room — and sometimes I see golf. Since today was Pro-Am day, I looked down the list of amateurs to see if I knew anyone playing in case I go for a walk.
About half way down the list, I see “Tony Kornheiser.” Mr. Tony is in Endicott and I don’t know this? This is the same town that advertised a Roy White appearance for a month. Can’t be Tony from PTI.
His playing partner: Harvey Stenger. The President at Binghamton University. I guess that was Mr. Tony.
If you follow this blog, you may remember how I had my letter read on Tony’s show, and the premise of that note was that they would send me a “TK” sticker that I would then pass along to President Stenger.
So I ran out and found them on the 5th hole. After they finished the hole, I introduced myself and told them the story. Now I have President Stenger AND Tony, but the sticker was at home. They were both very nice and laughed at how this worked out.
The best line: I told Tony I don’t have know what to do between 10 am – noon since I can’t listen while he’s off for the summer. His response: “Now I’m here in person.”
