We might hear these words coming from the Padres' baseball announcer when the team plays at Petco Park in San Diego. TaylorMade, a leading golf manufacturer, has just recently attached an 88-foot tall, 950-pound replica of its R11 driver to the right-field foul pole at the stadium, taking advertising to all new heights. The all-aluminum driver is no small feat, taking 250 man-hours to construct. To close off the advertising deal, LPGA star Natalie Gulbis will throw out the first pitch at today's Padres-Philles game.
Although the club head at the end of the driver is an optical illusion, the handle is in fair territory, begging the question of what happens if a long-driven ball hits it. Well, at least TaylorMade executives will have clubs to protect themselves from angry Padres' fans.
