*Major Title
The Gorilla .
Crafted from solid gold, and hardened in the fires of a volcano….when a players name is placed on this sacred trophy it is a lifetime achievement. So many men have tried to win this trophy, like Greg Altieri, and have fallen short due to a total lack of mental tenacity*. The Gorilla is easily one of the most revered championships in the world of golf. For those who have climbed Mt Everest, it is an exclusive club filled with memories that simply can’t be captured in words.
*Greg Altieri has finished 2nd a total of 8 times…..what a loser.
“Listen BIG guy, I have tried to win this trophy so many times it will make your head spin. Still haven’t done it, and probably never will. It’s like Billy Joel always says “It’s a town full of losers….because tramps like us baby I was born to run.”
They don’t call me “not Greg” for nothing. I guess.”
— Greg Altieri 11 time loser
