I served as a Marshall for many years at the Buick Open in Westchester County and also at the US Open when it was held at Wingfoot. The source of much of the shouting and bad behavior is the beer and liquor that is served in the hospitality tents and in the Club House to Club House ticket holders. One spectator was so loud and screaming that the well known pro player went over to him off the 18th tee and was going to hit him. We stopped him along with the other pro playing with him. It was the booze that was driving it. The 2 spectators involved were thrown off the course by the NY State Trooper.
