.Park rangers cited 57-year-old Douglas Jones for abandoning property, littering and feeding wildlife. Park spokesman Joe Zarki said Wednesday that Jones tossed some 3,000 golf balls from his vehicle.

Jones also scattered a few tennis balls and park literature and left fruit and vegetables along park roads. Jones says rangers spent 370 hours cleaning up, at a cost of $9,000.

Finally spotted in action last month, Jones allegedly told rangers he threw the golf balls to leave his mark and honor deceased golfers. The food was for stranded hikers.

The guy doesn't need to be in court... he needs to be locked up in a rubber room.... http://www.thehackersparadise.com/fo...bulgy-eyes.png

Bet the park rangers wouldn't have complained if he was pitching out ProV1's instead of Top Flites. There would have been golfers paying money to clean up the area!
