I love to spend time with my 3 girls when not working. Gracie, Preslee and Zoey. Always loyal to my roots in sports following the Kansas City Chiefs and the KC Royals. Big NBA fan as well. I also enjoy reading and down time on the beach.
Do you get to pick who you caddie for or are you part of a random pool?
Morning Brett, this is Alan Smith. I was your walking scorer at The Zurich and commented to you about how I loved the way you worked with KH. I’m the old guy!!! (73)
I didn’t know you were a Wildcat. Our daughter graduated from K-State and I have been a huge Chiefs fan since attending Super Bowl IV in New Orleans in 1970.
I just wanted to congratulate you and KH on the win last week.
Hard work pays off. Go get more and hope to see you in New Orleans next year.
Alan
Congratulations to you! Jimmy Cascone, Kansas City
