ERIC GRUBB, ESPN Cameraman
I had the opportunity to participate in the PGA event at Kiawah last week and witnessed rude and disrespectful behavior by ESPN cameraman Eric Grubb, who tossed a beer can into the grass at Kiawah rather than place it in a disposal can. When challenged by a bystander, Grubb said someone had used his cart as a garbage can and he was just emptying it out. No mention of the fact that he was not more than 10 feet from a garbage can but chose instead toss the empty beer can into the tall sea grass alongside one of the fairways. When told Kiawah was not a garbage can, Grubb then had the brass to ask his partner what it would take to have the bystander removed from the course. The bystander took the can and placed it in the disposal, angry with the crass attitude and disrespectful behavior of a professional ESPN cameraman.

Maybe Grubb already had too much to drink or maybe he’s just naturally rude and arrogant. It was a poor display by an employee of ESPN.
