As a sponsor of this year’s Murray Bros. Caddyshack Charity Golf Tournament, we found ourselves right at home hanging with another set of Murray Brothers—Ed, Brian, Bill, Andy, John and Joel—while raising money for a good cause, in this case The Florida School for the Deaf and Blind (FSDB). These Murrays have been running this tournament for 11 years, so it’s no surprise they’re experts at having a good time. Whether it was driving around in custom golf carts, donning crazy pants (see sidebar), auctioning off a walk-on part in The Three Stooges, the new Farrelly Brothers movie, or rocking out to the FSDB student band OuttaSight, the Murrays treated us just like…family. OH BROTHER(S): more about the murrays... ED: Retired businessman currently living the Good Life in California. JOHN: A true stand-up guy. And we’re not just saying that because he’s currently doing stand-up comedy. Fancy Pants Aside from hitting the links with a crazy cast of characters, part of the fun at the Murray Bros. golf tournament is the Crazy Pants Contest (and no, we’re not pulling your leg). BILL: SNL alum. Star of some of the best movies of all time, including Caddyshack, Stripes, Scrooged, Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day and Lost In Translation. Check out some of our crazy pants throughout the years… ANDY: Has a lot on his plate—he’s a culinary master, Co-founder and Co-Chairman of Murray Bros. Caddyshack Restaurant. JOEL: You might remember him from way back when for his role in One Crazy Summer or for his most recent spot on Mad Men. BRIAN: Responsible for some pretty genius and oft-quoted lines—he helped pen Caddyshack (one of our all-time favorite movies). Also appears in Ghostbusters, Christmas Vacation and As Good As It Gets (to name a few). Not only are we proud to team up with the Murray Bros. on the links; we’re also excited about our partnership with them off the links—their Caddyshack Charity Golf Tournament is our Tied to a Cause partner for the month of May! All proceeds from these limited-edition ties will benefit The Caddyshack Charity Golf Tournament in support of The Florida School for the Deaf and Blind. The ties are available for purchase at vineyardvines.com, so whether you’re a fan of the movie, love our ties or just believe in giving back, we definitely think you should gopher it. 12 www.caddyshackcharitygolf.com We’d be hard-pressed to find a day when Caddyshack wasn’t quoted around our office. Here’s one of our favorites: “In the immortal words of Jean Paul Sartre, ‘Au revoir, gopher.’ ” Have a ball at vineyardvines.com 13
