Stevie Wonder meets Nick Faldo at an awards dinner.  They get chatting and Stevie explains he's not a bad player himself.  'How do you play with all due respect' Nick asked him and Stevie explained that his caddy lines him up on the tee then shouts to him from the middle of the fairway whereby Stevie hits towards the voice.  Same for the second shot.  On the green the caddy lays behind the hole and Stevie putts towards it again.

'That's marvellous' Nick says.  Stveie says he'd like to have a game with him which Nick agrees to but Stevie says  'I'll play you for $1000 dollars a hole' 'I can't do that' says Nick.  'No I insist' replies Stevie. 'but it's not fair' Nick says.  This two's and fro's till In the end getting cheesed off Nick finally thinks 'sod it' and says 'ok then $1000 dollars a hole, when do you want to play'?  To which Stevie replies 'Oh I'm easy really .... any night next week! (wink)

Old but reasonably funny joke Lou, well done. 

Also probably your most informative post of the series so a double whammy!

Most people would probably have used Tiger Woods for the joke but I suppose you have never heard of him! Laugh

I think you're being pedantic but yes you're right but in the interest of good humour and a smile for a change on everyone's faces which is a pleasent change on here it is still a goodie aint it.

Faldo would wear a head torch and use a luminous ball - nap  Cool

IS THIS GAG WORTH UNBLOCKING LOU THE NUMPTY FOR ?
Report GymTanLaundry November 25, 2010 11:40 AM GMT
i've seen stevie wonder in concert (he was incredible!) but as he came on stage playing one of those "keytar" things, he bumped into some of the structure thing on stage, so i'm not sure how good he would be when it comes to visualising a golf ball and where to hit the ball.

so faldo would surely win?
Report GymTanLaundry November 25, 2010 11:40 AM GMT
also, how would stevie wonder know how far/hard to hit the ball?  the caddy is only giving him an indication of direction, not distance.

just doesn't make sense.

GTL and GB,

You are obviously under-estimating Stevie's abilities, the clue is his hairstyle, he is really a predator in disguise and may not have what we consider normal vision but he has infa-red and thermal vision.

The only way Faldo could beat Stevie in the dark would be to coat Stevie's ball in some special mud.

HTH.

HF - is that what the big black glasses are for?
Report Helmuthian Folds November 25, 2010 11:52 AM GMT
You see GTL, it all makes sense when you think about it!

I will have £10 at your very generous 1000/1 please!
Report GymTanLaundry November 25, 2010 11:54 AM GMT
you're on.

PRICE CHANGE:
stevie wonder eased to 2000/1
Report Helmuthian Folds November 25, 2010 12:31 PM GMT
Ok think i'll top up, another £10 at 2000/1 please.

If by some miracle Faldo was actually leading coming down the 18th fairway then 3 red dots would suddenly appear on Nick and he would have a hgole blown in him by Stevie's shoulder mounted plasma cannon.  If this happened would I still get paid?

HF, as long as he tees off at the first, the bet is a runner.

stevie wonder out to 2500/1!!
Report stringerbell November 25, 2010 2:38 PM GMT
hmm, i reckon faldo would prob win about 9 and 8, wouldnt pay to watch it, very one sided

would be more interesting and sportsmanlike on faldo's part if he at least blinded himself in one eye pre match, possibly with a large garden gnome stole from the garden of an adjacent house. he could use a torch to find one...

Oh I see like it.  Shame Tony went.

Good Tony Curtis story:

He was coming out of The Cannes film festival when surrounded by paparazzi and press.  This was about 10 years ago so he was about 72 then.  He had a young, big chested, much taller blonde dolly bird with him who he'd just married or they were at least a courting couple.  One of the press shouted "Tony do you worry about ther age difference"?  Looking her up and down Tony replies "Well if she dies, she dies"!

Smashing stuff.
