There has been no shortage of golfers in recent weeks who have complained about unruly fans heckling them during play–Justin Thomas, Billy Horschel, Sergio Garcia, to name a few. Rory McIlroy voiced that the PGA should think about limiting alcohol sales at events to stunt fans’ enthusiasm after one fan relentlessly screamed his wife’s name during competition. Even fan favorite Rickie Fowler even urged fans to keep the heckling to a minimum.

As the Masters kicks off today, PGA Tour officials have implemented a one-and-done rule for fans who shout particular phrases–most notably Bud Light’s “Dilly Dilly.”

But ‘Dilly Dilly’ is far from the only phrase that will get fans booted from the tournament. The folks at Skratch TV got their hands on the ‘Official List of Banned Phrases At Augusta National Golf Club.’ It’s pretty funny.

The complete list:

  • Dilly Dilly
  • Baba Booey
  • Mashed Potatoes
  • You da/the man
  • I love Martha Burk
  • Sweep the leg, Johnny
  • Anika Sorenstam loves trapeze
  • Free Meek
  • Dinklage for President
  • To infinity and beyond!
  • Activate the glutes
  • Jimmy Carter eats peanuts
  • Hey security can you pick me out of this sea of people?
  • RIP Harambe
  • Nobody beats the Wiz
  • Brandel’s my daddy
  • Bikini wax
  • Drive it Miss Daisy
  • (Insert band name) should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
  • Can you hear me now? (Good)
  • Hashtag (anything)

But for real, though–RIP Harambe.

The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
