RIP Arnold, but what in the hell does this have to do with politics Bimbino? Originally Posted by Luke_WyattNothing asshole. But Palmer was above politics. He is an American Icon.

While Ali was controversial, Palmer was universally loved.

You have never met Arnold Palmer you filthy liar and take this topic to the national Sandbox and honestly no one gives a shit of who you met. Originally Posted by Luke_WyattDon't hijack the thread. Have some respect. And I did meet him. Played behind his foursome at Bay Hill. And hung out in the grill room afterwards. He was a regular guy. And signed a poster I had of him standing on the Swilken Bridge. It hangs in my office. I also spoke to him at Latrobe CC where I was playing in a charity golf outing for Latrobe Hospital. Arnie was there. He took the time to treat people right. I suspect he would have even spoke with you.

Every once in a while it is nice to see a non-hostile thread in here--at least it WAS non hostile until you dumped in it.
Palmer, by every indication, was one of the good guys. Originally Posted by Old-T

Bambino, go send a sympathy card to his family and move the hell on, no disrespect to Arnold, but good people who are not necessarily celebrities or atheletes pass away every day. It's a problem in this country that we seem to only idolize sports figures and celebs, great people die every day- I know some great men and women who died in war defending this great country.

So go fuck yourself, you contemptible lowlife. You're unfit to breathe the same air as Arnold Palmer. I have no doubt Bambino met Arnie. I met him too. My father had drinks with him. For that matter, I also met Mohammed Ali (back in 2001 in Michigan City, MI). Who the fuck are you to call bam a "filthy liar"? Western PA breeds lots of classy professionals. Too bad they only produce turds where you grew up.
