Boo Weekley: Golf's Most Relatable Guy, Fighting an Orangutan & Beer Buddies With Dale

Dale Earnhardt Jr. reunites with an old friend from a different world, longtime PGA competitor Boo Weekley. For those who don’t know Boo, he’s a world-class storyteller and one hell of a golfer. If you don’t know Boo, you’ll be a fan of his after this episode. From his legendary porta-potty story to the time he once fought an orangutan, it’s safe to say you’ll be entertained during this one. After establishing himself as one of the most unique personalities in the professional golfing world, Boo became connected with Dale through another lifelong interest: auto racing. Boo explains that he grew up now far from a local dirt track in Florida, and his entire family followed NASCAR passionately. To quote Boo himself: “It wasn’t football on Sundays, it was NASCAR”. Dale recalls several instances of Boo traveling to Charlotte for race weekends, and how he became friends with many of Dale’s close friends during those trips. Boo’s professional career came about after he had given up on playing golf. He explains that while he was working as a hydroblaster at the Monsanto plant in Pensacola, he was convinced by longtime friend Heath Slocum to attend a local tournament. He ended up winning and quickly declared himself “professional,” and began collecting sponsorship to enter larger, higher-paying events. Boo became a fan favorite on the PGA Tour thanks to his memorable nickname and down-to-earth personality. After taking some time away from the sport due to injuries, he is now back full-time playing with the PGA Tour Champions And for more content check out our YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/@DirtyMoMedia Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!
