The pre-Amateurs meal was a novel idea to announce the Friday pairings and get the teams together before the competition began.
Butler Cabin was the home to the scorecards and postings for rounds of each day of competition. Logo balls donated by Dallas Geer above.
As Andy approves of the Media Guide, Dallas enjoys the smells of Butler cabin.

Jack's dog had an unfortunate accident on Kennon's pants during the first day of competition. KV handled it well, but still had to wear them the next day on the course.
