In anticipation of this weekend's Buick Open, the players and various celebrities competed in the Buick Open Pro-Am Wednesday.  Representing a decision made while PGA officials were clearly intoxicated, Kid Rock was paired with John Daly.  The results, while amazing, were predictable:

Rock stepped onto the No. 1 tee box for the group's 1:20 tee time wearing overalls, a white T-shirt and tennis shoes...  On the seventh tee, Daly thrilled the crowd by teeing up his ball on a full, 24-ounce can of Budweiser beer. As the crowd chanted, "Da-ly, Da-ly," he proceeded to pound the ball about 300 yards down the fairway. The beer can didn't fare as well.

Thankfully, the following excerpt described Kid Rock, and not John Daly:

After playing nine holes, he took off his T-shirt and played the final nine holes in overalls and underwear. Tournament officials offered him Buick Open T-shirts, but he just put them in his bag and continued playing, toting a beer in one hand and a cigar in the other... he slapped high-fives with the gallery en route to the green and made the birdie putt -- with a little assistance from a Budweiser can that he placed behind the hole as a backboard. 

I honestly never thought I'd see the day when the Happy Gilmore phenomenon transferred over to real life.  For the record, the two were joined by General Motors vice president Mark LaNeve, who happened to play with Tiger Woods at the 2006 Buick Open Pro-Am.  Safe to say this was a different experience.

"Kid (Rock) adds a different dimension.  Tiger Woods and Jerome Bettis were here the last time I played and it was nothing like this."

Jerome Bettis?  My God, HE'S FROM DETROIT!  DETROIT IS HIS HOMETOWN!... WHERE THE BUICK OPEN IS PLAYED!  That poses an interesting question, though.  Would you rather see Daly or Bettis shirtless wearing overalls?  I'm going to go with Bettis, since we've seen Daly and his salty, flabby funbags previously.

Edit: Fanhouse unearthed the video of Daly's tee off a Budweiser 2x4.  Good lord, he looks more prego than ever.
