0 Guest Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 how does it relate to a vietnam veteran? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Gmaster479 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 (edited) That line was really meant to throw people, but it is completely relevant with the fact that Tiger's dad, Earl Woods, was a green beret in Vietnam and one of his war buddies nicknamed "Tiger" was killed over in Vietnam. Once Earl got back and had his first son, he honored his friend by having his son's middle name be Tiger. (Tiger's real first name is Eldrick) Edited March 8, 2009 by Gmaster479 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Shakee, coming from the guy who started this crazy riddle obsession it means alot And whether Tiger has his D game instead of his A game, and only one functioning leg compared to two, he is still better than the rest of the tour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
Gmaster479
Okay, I might as well join the bandwagon of these riddlers
An animal at large, 12 years on tour
With a stroke or a smile, I set off my roar
In fields of green I stalk my prey
Without any rest, I'll chase for four days
I have many predators, some young and some old
I take them all on at once and take home the gold
All my other foes fall ill at my stare
While I pursue the great golden bear
Pressure means nothing, I'm in everyone's head
They know they're in trouble when they see me in red
When I'm in the hunt, there is no safer bet
My infamous name was that of a vietnam vet.
Who Am I?
