My scorecard for “The Final Beast” spectator round on August 4, 2025 in Nokia, Finland.
Some bad luck on 3 and 15 or it would have been an even more surprising round.
I had drop in pars on 4, 7, 12, and 17, and the birdies on 8 and 18 were also tap-in.

We played The Beast FPO layout this morning. I did surprisingly well! I parred 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, and 17, and birdied 8 and 18! 3, 15, and 16 were really bad, though. :)
My goal was to par 3 holes, so that result was quite a shock. #discgolfworlds25

I’ve recently come to realize… the worst thing is being only one person and not infinite people. I can only follow one of these cards tomorrow. #discgolfworlds25

Just followed Sofia Donnecke’s card at the putting competition (with bonus 🇨🇦 content, Thomas Gilbert joined her card), then I followed Simon Lizotte’s card! Actually, he’s Canadian too! #discgolfworlds25 #pinchme

I was around 20, and I bought a Logitech Cyberman to play Descent with. It wasn’t as accurate as the keyboard, but it was soooooo immersive. Still one of my favourite video gaming experiences ever.
PvP over dialup was pretty cool too. 😂

That’s me exactly.
It’s quite a thing growing up having your home team win the Stanley Cup and Grey Cup win year after year. Growing up thinking that was normal and the way it was supposed to be.
Then Gretzky gets traded and the reality distortion field dissipates and here we are 35 years later…

TSN.ca Staff should probably watch the games or at least carefully read the box score before writing a story about a game.
Either that or this is a huge diss to Hill. :)
