OMFG, I checked out the place because of my upcoming honeymoon and it costs $15,000 per week. That's a really cool court, but i bet i could find another carribean court that isn't quite as pricey.NMTennis said:Winner Winner - chicken dinner...
Hand's down the most amazing court I've seen...but haven't been.

the price is pretty impressive indeed... it's better to rent it with 14 people !GRANITECHIEF said:OMFG, I checked out the place because of my upcoming honeymoon and it costs $15,000 per week. That's a really cool court, but i bet i could find another carribean court that isn't quite as pricey.
sorry to say it to you so rudely but your attack dogs got easily corrupted with a yummy string of sausages !!!raftermania said:guys how did you get past security and my attack dogs? I strictly informed security to keep paparrazi types off my property - someone is going to get fired.
... even more considering it's infested of sharks !!!Andres Guazzelli said:I think the prize would be higher, if the court was locked inside a cage, or something.
It must be awful to pick up all the balls down there on the beach

Well, sir, it's not because everybody gave up, but because we just don't wanna ruin your honeymoon. If somebody else won the contest you would be like: "Honey, I was so close to winning that TW contest!" throughout the whole honeymoon, and your wife would be annoyed. Just KiddingGRANITECHIEF said:I must have won the contest cuz everybody else gave up~~!!!
Or i would be like, "Oh honey, why did we come to this wretched Fiji place with the grass court, when _______ posted a link to a much better court. We should've gone there!!!"ShcMad said:Well, sir, it's not because everybody gave up, but because we just don't wanna ruin your honeymoon.

Yes, of course she plays. I wouldn't be with a women that didn't play. She is pretty good. She played for two private colleges in northern cal and then made UCSB team (D1) as a walk on but was inelligible. However, we played 2 nites ago and i double bageled her in about 35 minutes. Still very fun to hit and practice with and we play often as a team, although that is sometimes tough cuz she's primarily a baseliner.
i'm sure the double bagel at the sunset on a grass court in the fidji islands is going to be so much romantic...GRANITECHIEF said:Yes, of course she plays.

I disagree, it's about ME and then it's about the court. We have to prioritize here diegaa, you know that.diegaa said:its not about you. its about the court.
