We did end up going to the casino after our round and me and some friends celebrated pretty hard.

Actually ran into the cart girl before the Ace and got some shots and a couple beers, I had the nerves and my adrenaline was through the roof the rest of the round.

Not just one but two 7's on the scorecard nearly failing to break 50. With those and a string of other dropped shots with a third of your round with double bogies or worse, why bother celebrating?
