I have the best breech of authority golf story. When Tip O'Neill was Speaker of the House, he and his wife were on a boondoggle to Africa. She fell ill and they airlifted them to Wiesbaden, Germany. Tip decided to play a round of golf at Rheinblick, the military course in town. They threw everyone off the course, cancelled all tee times, and he played eighteen alone...with the exception of a huge cadre of security people. To put a cherry on top, they took a brand new set of Wilson Staffs that a customer had ordered and put them in the rental program for Tip to use.
