I had a similar ranger experience...on a Denver muni course of all places! We got yelled at for grabbing a beer and hotdog (to go) on the run. The ranger chewed us out on 10, saying this was our one and only warning, kicked off the course, etc. etc. Well, 11 is a Par 3...we get to the hole, and there is one foursome on the tee, another waiting behind them, and then us.

The ranger started coming towards the hole, not realizing what was going on. He finally got close and looked at the backlog, then looked at me, then turned right around and sped away.

Which course? I am thinking Wellshire since 11 is a par 3. You might have enjoyed the day when an old pro opened a $100 window on 9 after a tournament. He laid odds on whether people could hit the green. Play got backed up needless to say since guys betting several hundred aren't going to give up the tee to casual players. The starter went absolutely nuts and there was a big dispute. Eventually it led to a little scandal where some Denver city employees- not the starter- looked bad. Got some news coverage. Interesting day.
