Wait, 190,000 spectators over four days? Somebody please tell me that's a typo.

Fat finger. Should be 100,000.

Nice shout out to one of my favorite lunch spots near the course, Peppers Cafe.

Only about a five minute walk from the 12th tee.

http://www.pepperscafe.net/

very small place, only 6 seats inside.

if you go be sure to get the grilled chicked sandwich.

awesome roasted peppers served on the side of all orders.

But 190,000 over seven days is about 27,000 a day, which, when workers are included, sounds reasonable.

Good article except for one factual error.

Merion Golf club was not built in Ardmore in 1896.

Actually, that sentence contains THREE factual errors.

However, the rest of the piece makes up for it.
