BUT, actually I only have my name, as my wife passed away well before I came to TV.

I gave a few second's thought to getting "Position Vacant" for the passenger's side, but thought it disrespectful of my late wife!

Default Just a note: over 400 hits and only 3% respond.

How much more interesting it would be if only the participation were higher. The non participants would/could have a richer experience also.

What a shame....the deadly silent majority...

I am surprised that you could get 16 names on the front panel of a golf cart unless they are on many different places on the golf cart.

I am waiting to see a golf cart much like a WWII fighter ace with the number of eagles, birdies, pars, and bogeys indicated on the side???

no names on cart - decorated with fiire dept gold leaf of ex-cheif badges, fire hydrant, fleur de lis, nozzle to be added at end of pinstripe that doubles as fire hose.

often wondered why names are on cart - first thought it was just a 'cute' idea - then realized it was so that you would know which cart was yours!

luv our cart!

I like the names on the cart so I don't have to remember the names of the people I am golfing with. I can look at the car and say "good shot ????".

Default Barefoot, I believe it counts by viewers and not per view.

At least, it has been on 906 views a few times after I went back and checked it a a number of times.

I suppose that some of the male names I have seen on the driver's side could be females as well as males. Not Bob, Chuck, John, Dick, Larry, Mitch, Ron, George, Robert, Rick, Brad, Gary, Clint; but names like Jan, Pat, Sam, Connie, Lonnie, Ronnie, Charlie, Tracey, Travis, or Taylor could be female or male first names.

Oh, forgot to mention...

Hubby's name on driver's side, my name on passenger's side.

Your welcome, Tony, for not calling him DH.
