🎹 HOLE IN ONE SHOW COMING TO MONUMENT!

Big Papi Comes Home – With a Legendary Friend in Tow 🎹

Anytime Big Papi plays Monument, it’s more than a show—it’s a return home. But he never comes alone… and this time, he’s bringing a road-tested legend: Jim Paquette from Florida. A razor-sharp comedian and slick musician, Jim’s the kind of performer who will have you laughing, singing, and wondering if you’ve just witnessed the perfect blend of chaos and talent.

We can’t guarantee you won’t go home sore from all the fun—whether that means your golf swing improves from those new stomach muscles… or you’re hanging up the clubs for good.
