It's Raining Gat's and Slugs

Talk about a shotgun start. Getting hit with a bullet couldn’t stop celebrity chef Paul Prudhomme from cooking at a golf course near New Orleans.

Prudhomme was setting up his cooking tent at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans when he felt a sting in his right arm. He thought it was a bee sting, but discovered a .22 caliber bullet after shaking his shirt sleeve.

The Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office believes Paulie was hit by a falling bullet shot somewhere within a mile-and-a-half radius of the golf course.

Witnesses say the bullet cut Prudhomme’s skin and put a hole in his white chef’s coat. But it'll take more than that to put PP down  as he continued cooking for the golfers, their caddies and guests at the annual PGA Tour event.

If for whatever reason a film was going to be made about the incident we've already got the title and the star. Firearms and golf? There's only one place to go...
