HIstory-ish

Disc Golf has been around since that first innovative proto-child launched a plate of brussel sprouts across the kitchen toward the garbage and was told to go to his animal skin hungry. Legend has it, the Egyptian pharaohs played this beloved sport using their own sarcophagi as a primitive basket in which to throw their unwashed dishes because they were really wasteful and because having “wet-finger wrinkles” was considered particularly gauche, what with their all being in a desert and stuff. In order to save on ever rising ceramics costs, the Greeks invented plastic, which distinguished itself as a much more durable alternative to the previously favored disc material of kiln-dried cow pies with twigs mixed in. It was Louis XIV, the Sun King, who made the first course around versailles, yet with only 7 holes due to a sudden bout of ennui which lasted until (and is believed, was a partial cause of) the French Revolution.

The game is fairly simple: There are 18 holes that are actually baskets. You throw your disc toward the basket/hole and try to get it in with as few throws as possible. Easy right? NO! You Fool. Ha ha! It’s way harder than that… muahhhahahahaaa… Actually, no, that’s pretty much it.
