Pennsylvania golfer died last weekend after being struck by lightning on a golf course.

Joseph Slivinski, 71, was playing at Pine Hills Golf Course in Taylor, Pa., when a storm rolled through Lackawanna County. Slivinski and his group were attempting to seek shelter when the strike occured.

Slivinski was a United States Army veteran who served in the Vietnam War. He was the former owner of a soft materials design shop and later worked in engineering, according to the Daily Voice. He was a regular at Pine Hills, where regulars say he was beloved.

It is the second lightning-related death on a golf course this year, following an incident in New Jersey in June. These are believed to be the first lightning-strike deaths on a golf course since 2017 according to the Lightning Safety Council.

Playing 9 at the exec course today. No rain or lightning in the forecast, so if I get smote today, OAM might want to start going to church.

Studies have shown that prayer works at the same rate as chance, except when someone knows they're being prayed for, in which it works less.

I know it was just a joke made upthread, but if every time I entered a church there was a thunderclap, or weird crap started happening, I'd certainly rethink my position on the matter :57:

The last time I entered a church it burst into flames. There might be something to this...

Oof. On a par 29 course I just shot a 41. I carded an 8 on the easiest hole on the course, normally ~60 yards but playing ~35 with tees and pin up front. I could have scored better on that hole only using my putter. 

Should I take this as evidence that God was punishing me for talking sh!t, or just that I suck at golf?
