VIRGINIA BEACH, VA — The largest organized golf trip in America, Carl Spackler Open, took a moment at corporate headquarters to make a public announcement and announce Dave Nickles has filed his paperwork and plans to participate in the 2010 Carl Spackler Open. The announcement was made in hopes it can save another life or jail time.

The Captains Club announced today with a written statement the importance of wearing your Spackler identification each and every moment during the 4-day event.

"Everyone is equipped with Spackler identification," says Jason Watson, Vice President of Awards. "This includes logo golf shirts and baseball cap. These can save your life."

The tournament venue will be equipped with plenty of man pop for everyone at the 10th Annual Carl Spackler Open. "It is important that our participants can be identified quickly and limp breathing bodies be removed from public display quickly," said Watson.

David Nickles was used as an example in the statement. "Nickles was one of many participants that had a few drinks in Raleigh; maybe drank a 12-pack too many during Round 3 play."

Multiple confirmed reports by the Raleigh hotel confirmed that Nickles had a wonderful evening of fun leaving the 19th floor 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 was lost and dropped to the floor around 4:56AM. Hotel security was notified around 5:18AM EST by a patron of the hotel catching an early flight out of town.

Another fellow member of Carl Spackler Open with a logo hat entered the lobby on 1st floor, which was quickly swarmed by hotel employees. It was 5:22AM.

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

The security at the hotel asked the anonymous hero to identify the limp breathing body with the matching logo hat. "I do not recall his last name," said the hero. "His first name is Dave and he is ours."

The heterosexual hero reached deep into Dave's pocket for identification. Security radioed the front desk and processed the name for room location. "It was a pretty slick fix due to the logo hat," said hotel security. The appropriate room was found and unlocked.

"I grabbed him from under his arms and drug him like a dead body into his room," said the laughing anonymous hero. "It was quite difficult considering how hard I was laughing, but my back has fully recovered."

Nickles was reported as breathing at the time of drop off, 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 last year outside of the party bus transportation."

Dave was given a nickle for his thoughts on the situation as the strongest advocate to logo hat wearing. "Wear your hats people even if you see me not wearing mine. They become critical when you do not expect it," said Nickles in a written statement. "I am sure glad my Titleist hat was in the room and not the choice hat of Saturday. I would also like to thank everyone involved."

Nickles will fly to San Antonio, TX from Virginia Beach, VA. He will party in San Antonio on April 14 and catch the 9:00AM direct flight to Harlingen on April 15. The Virginian is expected to strengthen the state of Virginia.

There are 4 four participants registered for the Open.

There are 31 days before Round 1 in southern Texas. There are 46 golfers expected to arrive with a Spackler logo hat. Dave Nickles plans to return with the wheat colored hat that may have saved his life.
