A family-and-friends two-man scramble in Willoughby, Ohio, held in memory of golfer, baker, bartender, and electrician Alphonse Michael DeGidio.

Why it surfaced

The tournament turns a family biography into an annual ritual: August 23, Al’s birthday, at Lost Nation Golf Course, with meatballs, beers, a winning “Meatball Jacket,” and a last-place trophy. Its unusually thorough rules explain everything from the six-drive requirement to the sudden-death chip-off, giving the memorial genuine operational life rather than leaving it as a generic tribute page.
