I'm pretty surprised he lived as long as he did.

I watch the Masters every year and he is one of the golfers that does the "first" drive of the to initiate the start of the tournament.

10 years ago, I was like... man, Arnold is in bad shape. But he can still drive the ball better than me.

Golf lost one of the all-time greats!

RIP ARNIE!

A golf legend and a budding superstar baseball player both pass away, and a legendary announcer calls his last regular season game in LA....

This is a crappy day in the sports world.

You are correct 2016 fucking sucks ... This was the man that got me interested in golf when I was a kid.  I was a part of Arnie's Army . I am deeply saddened by this and he will be missed   

Long Live the King
