Zippy Fleming Wins Senior Putt-Putt Tour

GAINESVILLE, TX After a long and strenuous tour,

Floridian Zippy Fleming was named this year’s Senior Putt-Putt Champion. This year’s

tournament was definitely a challenging one—and the champion went unnamed until the very

final round, which was held at the Gainesville Putt-Putt and Pizza last Saturday. The

tournament, which was televised on ESPN12, proved to be breathtakingly

intense.



The fierce competition began right from the first hole, where

tournament leaders Fleming and Buster Stevens cautiously planned their strategy on a

difficult Par 3. The crowd was hushed as Fleming lined up his shot, hoping it would go

through the dancing hamsters, into the mouth of the Chuckling Chipmunk, out its

ever-moving tail, and straight into the hole. Neither competitor succeeded on the first

putt. Instead, both were forced to take the second shot—and the tournament began with a

tie.



The two continued in constant battle throughout the entire

tournament. And while each of their 12 competitors put up a good fight, none were quite

capable of catching Fleming and Stevens.



Stevens made a number of

impressive shots during the day, including a hole-in-one on Hole 4, a challenging Par 4

that included a live weasel that had to be coaxed into allowing the ball to pass.

Stevens, who had once owned a chicken farm in Iowa, had a natural advantage on Hole 4,

considering his previous experience with the persuasion of wild

vermin.



But Fleming took irreversible control of the tournament on the

16th hole, which required the composition of poetry in iambic pentameter while putting

through a wind tunnel. Fleming composed a beautifully moving verse and putted perfectly.

Unfortunately, Stevens had forgotten what iambic pentameter means—a critical mistake

that cost him the championship.



So, at the end of 18 grueling holes,

Zippy Fleming was declared the champion, and he returned home victorious with his giant

Spinning Clown trophy and matching party hats.
