I have played a handful of rounds of golf with Wayne Gretzky.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I happened to be one of those guys who doesn't play much golf.
I don't play golf for fame.
I play golf - badly.
I have been known to play a few rounds in my time. I'm not obsessive; I don't play in the dark, but even that's not out of the question because Stevie Wonder is also a golfer.
All I ever wanted to do was play competitive golf against the best players in the world.
I played golf for 25 years before I made a hole-in-one of any kind. I was on the tour for years before it finally happened. Eventually I made 23, but boy, that first one was a long time coming. It was the price I paid for not shooting at every flag.
In the '80s, when Gretzky came to the World Championships in the second or third game, you'd see this guy skating circles around the other ones. Unbelievable.
There have been times when I played more than others, but I've been a road comic for a quarter of a century, so I've always played golf on the road because you have a lot of time to kill.
The first time I met Wayne Gretzky... he never said anything back.
I've played golf with three U.S presidents.
