Russ Berkman masters ticket

Russ Berkman masters ticket, A desperate golf fan forced his pet pooch to be sick and then sifted through her vomit after she ate his entrance tickets for a prestigious tournament.
Russ Berkman fed his beloved Swiss mountain dog Sierra with hydrogen peroxide after realising she had devoured the four sought-after passes to Augusta National Golf Club's Masters.
He then pieced the scraps of the tickets he had won in a lottery back together so he could still fulfil a life-long dream and take his three friends to watch today's practice round.He told KJR Radio the first thing he did, when realising what exactly had been her tasty treat, was 'panic'.

The Seattle resident then called up his girlfriend, who told him the only thing he could do to get the tickets for the Georgia tournament back undigested was: 'Well you gotta make the dog puke.'Feeding her the substance, which is reportedly safe for dogs to drink, she quickly threw up her meal.
He added: 'Quite frankly, she didn’t really have much else in her stomach but that, so it worked out.'I grabbed a spatula, put (the vomit) into a Ziploc baggie and brought it inside on my kitchen counter.
'I started, I guess, either a CSI or surgical-type process to figure out what was going to be salvageable, if anything.'
Each ticket had been chewed into 20 vomit-covered pieces. But he managed to put them back together.
He added: 'We got about 70 per cent of all four tickets put together. It took about, I don’t know - about three cocktails deep [for me] was how long it took to put this thing all together.'
Then, when he contacted Augusta National Golf Club to explain the situation, they reprinted his tickets.
The 2012 tournament begins tomorrow, and will see Charl Schwartzel defending his title. Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are favourites for this year's event.

Russ Berkman was one of the fortunate few who won a lottery to earn four tickets to today's practice round at the Masters. His Swiss mountain dog Sierra, however, ate the tickets, Berkman tells KJR radio, forcing him to induce the dog to vomit. He gave Sierra a mixture of water and hydrogen peroxide (safe for dogs), and sure enough, there was soon barf -- and ticket pieces. Berkman attempted to put back together the tickets, took photos, and called officials to tell them about his plight. Lucky for him, they believed his tale and reissued his tickets. ​

Russ Berkman was hours away from flying to Augusta, Ga., and professional golf's biggest event, the Masters Tournament (get Masters coverage), when he made a terrifying discovery: His dog had eaten one of his tickets (what breed of dog?). So, like any dutiful golf nut, he did what needed to be done. He made his dog throw up (how?) and reconstructed his ticket.
