It was open to the public but you weren't allowed to get autographs on the golf course. Why someone would want to watch someone play golf is a mystery to me? Although were I was stay was right on the golf course so I was able to run out and get an autograph. Rollie Fingers 1/1 on omlb. He never said a word. I just asked if I could get an autograph and he motioned me over, took my ball, turned it over to look the ball over and then signed it. I don't know if he was looking for a hologram or a special hof print or what. He signed, that was all I cared about.
