RALEIGH, NC — There was plenty of man pop for everyone at the 6th Annual Spackler Open. David Nickles was one of many participants that had a few drinks on Saturday; maybe drank a 12-pack too many.

Multiple confirmed reports by the hotel and participants confirmed on Sunday afternoon that Nickles had a wonderful evening of fun leaving the hospitality room and deciding the 19th floor hallway would be as good as place as any to take a nap.

With multiple reports of when Nickles was last seen, Nickles reportedly started his nap around 4:56AM early Sunday Morning before hotel security was notified around 5:18AM EST. They immediately tracked down another participant of the Carl Spackler Open walking through the lobby around 5:22AM.

"I choose to remain anonymous, but strongly believe the story should be told," said an unknown Spackler hero. "It was a great event and these moments require some paparazzi."

The security at the hotel asked the anonymous hero to identify the participant with the Spackler Logo Hat. The hero could not remember rookie's last name so with much heterosexual tendancies reached deep into his pocket for identification. Security radioed the front desk and processed the name and unlocked the assigned room.

"I grabbed him from under his arms and drug him like a dead body into his room," said the anonymous hero. "It was quite difficult considering how hard I was laughing, but it hopefully my back will heal in a couple of weeks."

Nickles was reported as breathing, however never responded to any form of physical dragging, rug burns or verbal communication.

The anonymous participant said, "I am just glad that I can contribute to the tournament in such a big way. There was no more important contribution to the tournament outside of the party bus transportation."
