That's a shame. Would be cool to have a Worlds outside the US. I seem to remember some local players back in the day going overseas during the mid 80s for something. Maybe it was a Worlds. Anyway, I do remember the Can-Am series of tournaments and I wonder if something like that is going on now? Probably not, but it was a great idea. New Zealand would be cool. I almost moved there back in the early to mid 90s.

Now I signed this Petition too....but it should be clear that really all these online petitons do..any petition for that matter... is show some public opinion on a particular subject or concern. Don't count your chickens just yet.

The reality, is the sport needs to grow to a level...that it becomes a household name, attracts major sponsors willling to fork out millions to make millions....we're not there yet.


Now, some of the best points I've heard yet are, The 2012 games already set and what it really takes is some major cash and some political influence, both nationaly and internationaly.


As far as Disc Golf being a spectator sport...why not, ball golf is.


As far as the image goes...I don't think it's as bad as some would represent it. Sure it could be cleaned up a bit. Like I said in one of the other threads....people just need to be discrete in what they do...use some disc-retion for pete's sake. I don't think Under Armour want's to share the spotlight with High Times.
