Yeah, I'm not happy about this.
Only good thing is typically the forecast does about a 180 when we're still this far away. At least I hope so...
No, but I live only a couple miles away, so we're planning on taking an Uber to the drop-off location off of Towne in between 106th & 116th.
I looked through my materials and there is nothing regarding re-entry after a total evacuation of the tournament. You likely would be able to wait out the storm in the tent to which you have access . Weekly passes allow re-entry but daily passes do not. I waited out a 3 hour downpour at the President's Cup at Muirfield Village a couple years ago. Luckily, i had access to a tent with free food and drink.
The Tournament has total discretion on matters like this so they could decide to allow re-entry.
I phoned tourney office yesterday. Basically what I was told is he didn't know. We both laughed and assumed that if forced evacuation happened we could get back on grounds.....hopefully.
Saw they already moved parking shuttle from 146th and Towne to Indy Airport. I think Uber is going to be my best route.
The Indy airport parking is only for Thursday and Friday. Weekend parking will be on the Pennsylvania St. location. I will be working in the tournament office Friday all morning till noon. It should be interesting to see what happens if the storms hit.
you get two thumbs up from me: biking if you can to a PGA event is the way to go, and Friday is my favorite tourney day. Fun to be out there when you are normally working but you can't beat the view from the couch for the weekends! Good plan if the weather cooperates!
The address for Sunday to pick up the shuttle is 11815 N. Pennsylvania Street, Carmel.
Sergio putting right handed today.
Highly recommended finding someone that owns a BMW, if you don't yourself. The BMW owners pavilion is pretty nice on a hot day. You just need a BMW key/fob

I had passes to the St. Vincent suite today. Air conditioning, booze and food. A good day.

I don't have my tournament materials with me so I cannot give you the address of the BMW lot. However, in order to park there you have to reserve a spot on line. I would assume when you do that they will tell you.
I don't understand why they didn't move the tee times up either. The forecast for tomorrow is also worse in the afternoon so i wonder if they will do that tomorrow.
Ok thanks. Yea I knew you need the VIN number to register the vehicle. Probably given further instructions then.
You can show up at the BMW Pavillion for free food and drink without making reservations but parking requires reservations. I heard there have been days where the parking is full and people cannot get spots. I would get on that ASAP.
I promise you there is nothing free about the food/drink in the bmw owners pavilion. Beers are $8-9, mixed drinks $11. Food is similarly priced. Great spot to watch from though.
Really. I didn't realize that. Not as good a deal as I thought. You can buy food at the Biergarten for those prices.
