People in the United States have adopted several traditions from Europe. Golf, while often associated with Scotland, was played throughout Europe for centuries before it became popular in America. It is interesting to note that by 1900, there were over 1000 golf clubs located in the United States.
Whether you are new to golf or have been playing it for decades, were you aware that a regulation golf ball contains 336 dimples? Or that during a stipulated round, the maximum number of golf clubs that you can carry at a time is 14?
You may also be interested to know that there are benefits to carrying your own golf clubs. If you are playing a 9-hole course of golf, you will likely be walking almost 2.5 miles. So, when you carry your own clubs during the game, you will also be able to burn off a few calories. This may be nice to know when you are planning to enjoy a long, relaxing brunch after your golf game.
If you like statistics, you may be interested in knowing the odds of making 2-holes-in-1. If you’re considering a friendly wager, you may want to think twice, as the odds are actually 67 million to 1!
The English tradition of brunch eventually became popular after 30 years of first being introduced to Americans. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, this word, which combines “breakfast” and “lunch,” was coined during the late 19th century.
The traditional brunch menu, which might include baked eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, waffles, and toast with jam, has undergone quite a few changes over the years. While traditional brunches are still popular, a 2015 survey showed that 67% of the participants enjoyed ethnic-inspired dishes for both breakfast and brunch time. Some favorite dishes included eggs scrambled with Chorizo and coconut-milk pancakes drizzled with Asian-flavored syrups.
When looking for a place to meet with family and friends for a relaxing Sunday brunch or a few rounds of golf, you want to find party venues with comfortable and beautiful surroundings. The same applies, of course, when you’re in search of romantic wedding places and other party venues.
