Kids Exposed To Strippers At Golf Course
A close encounter between flirtatious strippers and children playing in a golf tournament was the result of "mistiming," golf course officials said Tuesday as they apologized to parents.
The scantily clad women spilled out of a limousine as the youngsters were finishing their game as part of the Gold Crown Junior Golf Association tournament Monday. Tournament officials said they were not warned the strippers would be arriving before the end of the game for children, who ranged in age from 7 to 12.
The women were part of Shotgun Willie's Charity Golf Tournament to benefit breast cancer. The strippers were to serve as caddies to patron's of the strip club. A club manager said there were 144 golfers and 70 caddies.
A woman told KUSA-TV the event drew curious questions from her children, who asked her why the men joining the strippers had water guns and why the women wore only their underwear. KUSA said the woman declined to be identified.
Eagle Trace Golf Course manager Evelyn Koch says the women were forbidden from going topless and that they were just flirting with the men.
"I cannot tell you the girls didn't flash out there but it wasn't a free-for-all," Koch said. She said the Shotgun Willie's crowd and the young golfers had to share the same clubhouse while the children had lunch because their tournament started later than expected.
Still, she said the Broomfield golf course was sorry children were present when the strippers arrived.
Golf course instructor Dustin Moser said some of the strippers "got a little out of control" but that it happened after the children had left.

P.S. I love you
Overheard from one of the youngsters
during encounter:
"Mom, sis, I didn''t know you two played golf"
Meanwhile, I didn''t know there were
strippers in Colorado.
I thought they were all whorres.
I for one have traveled all over Europe. I''ve even lived there for awhile. And I''m really weary of people comparing the US to Europe. If you truly believe they have it better over there, there are plenty of airlines that go there, and it''s not impossible to move there. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, but I assure you, most of the time this is illusion.
