Looks like the Phoenix zoo just got a new tiger. No, not that Phoenix Zoo. This one.

And it really ought to be quite the zoo – in every sense of the word. The media here are already all over this in a big way. It’ll be at the top of every newspaper, news broadcast, and sports radio headline. Keep in mind: the Waste Management (a.k.a. Phoenix) Open already has the record for craziest scene (the famous 16th hole stadium)…

… and the most visitors over any weekend on the PGA Tour. Can you imagine what it will be like this year? Just Tiger entering the field has ginned it up in every way, manner, shape, and form. You can bet Golf Channel will be broadcasting live from here. Folks will be coming in from all over the country for not just this, but the Super Bowl as well (it’s being held in Glendale the same weekend). It will be madness!

And just think, your humble correspondent will be here at “ground zero”.

I can tell you this: you can bet I’ll be steering clear of Scottsdale that weekend!
