Where Aren't They Now: 55

Chester re-invented golf.

Please don't misunderstand--he didn't make the game better, he actually invented it again. It was his primary obsession throughout late elementary school and early high school: painstakingly laying out the rules and regulations of his fantastic game. By the time he was finished, the game he had invented completely resembled what we know to be golf.

He was crushed, of course, on the day that his father took him to a local bar where the PGA tour was playing on the television.
