Yosemite concessions boss out of a job after driving golf balls in Valley meadow

[yortsed snacilbuper]

Hitting golf balls into a park meadow is littering. Had Grisar retrieved the balls he would have trampled a protected meadow that is being restored.

Yosemite’s meadows are vulnerable ecosystems, critical to both plant and animal species. They are also sponges soaking up water from melting snowpack. Most of San Francisco’s water is filtered by the park’s meadows.

2. He won't have regrets if he hit it pure

That's one of the awesome aspects about golf. In every round no matter how poorly you play there will be a handful of swings that send the ball exactly where you envisioned...and then some. Such an incredible feeling.

Then there are the handful of shots that are so pure you remember them the rest of your life. For this guy's sake, I hope this was one of them.

I wonder what Yosemite's reaction would have been if Trump did exactly the same thing?

3. Endangering precious ecosystems for golf?

I hope every one of his shots sucked.

5. +1

Concessionaire employees are some of the worst. I used to live in a small town with many of them during tourist season and they are not people I would neither care to work with nor have as friends.

9. There was absolutely nothing "awesome" about what he did.

Hopefully, the only thing he'll remember for the rest of his life is that he got fired for being an idiot.

"A video sent to It’s Going Down and already going viral on various Facebook pages, shows the leader of the Las Vegas chapter of Turning Point USA, Riley Grisar, along with a young woman screaming about how they are going to “Rule the Country.” They then go on to yell, “White power! Fuck the n*****s!” A third voice, coming from the person making the video then yells, “Yeah, fuck em!”...(moreĺ

6. Somebody Needs To Tell This Guy...

...there's this new place they came up with for hitting golf balls.
It's called a golf course! Brand new concept. From the 17th century!
Idiot!
