My favorite golfer of all time, passed on when I was 13. We miss you Payne!
I cried when his plane went down.

yeah, me too. NBC & ESPN have done it right with him. God bless his family.

I did cry earlier during that special
Prettiest golf swing I've ever seen.
The transformation of Payne Stewart from total hotshot to true family man was, and still is, remarkable. It's a shame he left us so soon.

i know you're only kidding, but i think he meant "plane".
why did he dress like that ???

Can people still not be sad even after someone dies ?
It was a tragic event that took everyone by surprise
everyone is so sensitive about payne stewart... blah
Boomer
it's been 5 or 6 years.
You're right
I guess it's different for people who are really into golf

Of course ...I watch Oprah and stuff.

I know it sounds strange, but allow me to explain a little better.
My grandfather died about 3 years ago and we were very close, some things that happen from time to time throughout the day remind me of him which gets me choked up sometime. I am a sensitive man, and it's not like I am not moving on or anything like that it's just the way I am. I was able to watch Payne play in Ft. Worth twice at the Colonial when I was growing up and he was a crowd favorite for sure. Some of you will say it's because he wore the funny pants, but that's not it; he would come over and interact with the crowd on just about every hole he was on. So he was a great player and a great person and I miss getting to see him play. People cry in movies all the time that are fake and this is real.
