There’s always that one guy at every golf tournament who thinks it’s comical to yell something after a golfer takes a swing.
“Mashed potatoes,” “sprinkled cupcakes” and “baba-booey” are just three examples of the many things people have yelled during professional golf tournaments.
Well, heckling spectators be warned: Yelling “Dilly Dilly” at the Masters this week will get you kicked out, according to a report.
Bryce Ritchie of Bunkered Online, a publication based in Scotland, said that he spoke with a member of security at Augusta National Golf Course who said the staff had been given a list of sayings that are prohibited and anyone who shouts them will be removed immediately.
“Dilly Dilly” was on that list. Ritchie admitted on Twitter that he had no idea what the phrase is a reference to.
If you’re like Ritchie, here’s some background on “Dilly Dilly.”
The phrase has recently garnered a ton of traction thanks to Bud Light commercials. It has been commonly used in place of “cheers.”
