Synchro-dinks
Rodney calls them "synchronicities". I call them "cowinky-dinks". The 2 latest ones are disc golf related:
#1 - Last week's league night in Ames, we're sitting around waiting for the rest of the groups to come in. A group of casual players is just leaving the course. A girl in the group is freaking out that someone would leave a disc in the middle of the fairway; she had just found one on the last hole. As the group leaves, the girl decides she doesn't want to deal with trying to find its owner, so she just hands it to league player, Ryan Maher, who looks at the name written on the back, which reads, "Ryan Maher".
#2 - This week's league, I had thrown a pretty close run at the basket on the second hole, when the topic of conversation shifted to aces and whether I considered starting an ace pool for league. Two holes later, a casual group playing behind us hits #4 for an ace. After the round, we discover that a league player also hit an ace on #12.
