You know a hotel is bad around here when I googled it, pulled up the street view, and said “wow” out loud to myself.

My wife made me take her to Myrtle Beach in the off season and I’ve never forgiven her. Fayetteville to Myrtle, and the only thing open was “Ripleys Believe it or Not”

My man. I shared a room with my brother at Bandon dunes like 8 years ago and ended up sleeping in the bathroom on the floor with towels around my head he was snoring so loud. I basically want to murder people that snore. Told him we will never share another sleeping space as long as I live and so far I’ve held to it haha

I once ended up sleeping on the floor of a walk in closet because the guy I was sharing a room with was like a boat motor. I don’t know how his wife sleeps in the same bed as him every night. I also take a golf trip with the same group of guys, one who is a bad snorer, and half the debates are about who shares a room with him .

Hot take for snorers, just wake them up. They more often than not stop snoring

Chip off for who joins the snorer as soon as you get to the resort.

I played a sub-$10 round (9 holes) at a course called Riverside in Memphis a few years ago. These places exist. OKC or Tulsa would be solid, as would Little Rock (shoutout Burns Park).

How the hell is there not a Director’s Cut edition of Strapped showing this

You can’t forget Maggie from Louisiana, my dad is determined to see her in concert after being introduced to her on strapped.

I just feel what they sacrifice in terms of quality content to include lodging has to be a considerable amount.

Umm… @djpie it already was a heck of a montage! I’ve watched that montage at least four times already, and have been blasting Lawyers, Guns, and Money on repeat all week. Just perfection.

I can only imagine seeing this unfold in real time. Everyone deserves a friend like @Randy.

I’ve wanted to play Muni for a while.

Now, I know, that if I get my ass whupped, the only appropriate response is to engage in epic shithousery in Myrtle the next days. Thank you, @djpie, @MerchCzar and @Randy for your somber, clear-headed guidance.

Great episode, fellas.

I think between the last season of Tourist Sauce, and this tour de force, NLU’s video content has reached the MJ from 91-93 mode.

I don’t agree at all. I think the limitations on lodging probably produces a lot of the best content for the series: Maggie, pancake lady, motel with gas leak, big meech, Baltimore monster artist, etc. It drives a lot of the bits in episodes and introduces interesting characters.

A small budget increase is in order.

How about some easier obtained bonus cash though? Like if @Randy makes it through a round without losing a ball is worth $50. If @MerchCzar plays without airmailing a green, $25. Brings a Wolfhammer vibe into it and some money in their pockets for some organic fun.

You could argue that part of the challenge in the interest of content would be to find unique accommodations to stay, but at the same time does not have to conflict with the budget. I mean think of the whole dodge minivan bit that never got factored into the budget but I bet you remember it.

But to echo @JScore’s elegant rant, the only reason why people talk about it so passionately is because of the quality.

As the owner of a big right miss, add avoiding that as a bonus. Tough once in the head.
