Golf course owners beware: If you accept the big bucks to host the Oil Field Trash Tournament, you could be in for big trouble.
One eyewitness to the shenanigans on July 16 told tales of sex acts in golf carts, girl-on-girl action, full nudity and "God knows what went on in the 'hospitality' tent."
My spy, a golf course employee, spoke on the condition that the metro-area golf course not be named. According to my sources, the 30-year-old tournament has been "uninvited" back to every course where the annual event has been held.
Somehow, the managers of the latest golf course hadn't heard of the Trash tournament's trashy history.
The tournament, whose roots lie in Denver's go-go oil boom days, has since metamorphosed into a wider group of participants.
Tournament organizers paid the golf course $28,000 for the day, plus another $10,000 in food and beverages. Girls from local strip clubs arrived via limos, according to several eyewitnesses, and did what they get paid to do inside a licensed club on each hole.
Because of the public nudity (not to mention the alleged sex acts), the golf course risked losing its liquor license if authorities had been notified. Several family homes line some of the golf holes, but the golf course didn't receive complaints from the neighbors.
The employee who booked the event left some time ago for a new job; the course's head pro couldn't be reached Monday for comment.
I couldn't track down anyone from Oil Field Trash, but if you're out there and so inclined, call me with your side of the story.
Needless to say, though, the group won't be asked back next year.
"It was absolutely appalling what went on here," the employee said.
