In Oregon, a group of golfers was caught “playing as it lies” in front of a massive wildfire burning behind them. This photo, courtesy of Beacon Rock Golf Course, shows three gentlemen finishing a round of golf seemingly oblivious to the fiery array of burning woods behind them. Now that’s dedication.

The wildfire, reportedly started by a teenager, has been burning through the area for several days. Perhaps a reason it is not getting a lot of media attention is due to Hurricane Irma.
