1. Cameron Smith:

   I’d be lying if I didn’t push it a little bit, i was trying to hit it over the bunker there and hold it up against the wind. The wind didn’t really do much for maybe three quarters of the shot, and it held it up right there at the end. That was just awesome.

2. Edo Hozic:

   The art works cover the period of the Cold War, everything that this bunker slept through during its long isolation.

3. Brian Laundrie:

   You probably have 1%, or less than 1%, of the United States has bunkers, but that being said, if they have a bunker, it could be highly likely. My own opinion is he's gotten as far away from Florida as he could possibly go.
