Arnold Palmer |  Latrobe, PA |  May 19, 2008





Producer Notes





Arnold Palmer grew up in Latrobe, PA, the son of the greens keeper at the Latrobe Country Club. As a kid, he was not allowed to play on the golf course when it was open to members. Now he owns the club. His brother, Jerry Palmer, is the General Manager. Golf is the family business. Arnold Palmer's complete life's history seems to be stored at the club. In a nearby building are shelves of golf memorabilia, racks of clubs, rows of golf shoes, hundreds of presents, plaques, Arnold Palmer products and even the actual tractor he rode in his Pennzoil commercials. In one area of his office is an entire photo gallery - Arnold Palmer with various Presidents of the United States, from President Eisenhower to President Bush. There's also a photo of him with Queen Elizabeth. Arnold Palmer is golf royalty. But when he found out we'd arranged for lunch to be served to the production crew at the club he decided to sit down with us.  What was the beverage served with the meal? Arnold Palmer Ice Tea, of course.
