Silver fox. Caveman Keno savant. Prop bet oracle. Possibly the worst golfer at any course with a name worth knowing. Beloved anyway.
Most people meet probability head on and lose. Will treats it like a friend who owes him money. He always collects.
Friends call him Will. Bookies call him the reason they updated their internal dashboards. He calls it "just having a feeling about it." There is no model. There is only Will.
The hair did not happen overnight. It was earned, one outrageous prop hit and one charming smile at a time. The pitch is built in.
The math says Caveman Keno is bad for you. Will treats it like a casual conversation with the universe. The universe keeps replying in his favor.
Will doesn't drive places. He arrives at them, somehow already comfortable, sunglasses on, calm energy intact.
No medals were ever issued. No leagues recognized the achievements. The legend persists anyway, in photographs and friend group lore.
*Front nine only. Back nine numbers redacted to protect his self esteem. The asterisk is doing a lot of work.
Bad at golf. Great at almost everything else. The kind of friend you'd want to be in the foxhole with, mostly because he'd already have called the score.
