Ben Martinez, owner of El Jardin Mexican restaurant in Commerce City, is taking the hole-in-one tradition to great lengths.
When Martinez carded his first hole in one Monday at Buffalo Run Golf Course, he complied with the age old tradition of buying a round of drinks for patrons at the club house. But he’s spreading his enthusiasm to his restaurant by buying guests their first regular margarita or beer from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. today.
“It was a very exciting day for me on Monday…what was supposed to be a nice day of golf with good friends, turned into a once in a lifetime day of excitement as I recorded my FIRST ever hole in one…all with my good friends!” Martinez wrote to e-mail subscribers. “It was the perfect shot on hole #7 at Buffalo Run Golf Course from 174 yards away with a 7 iron. I quickly learned that with such great honors, comes great traditions…buying the first round of drinks! I am extending that tradition to my guests at the restaurant as I will be buying everyone’s first drink with NO PURCHASE NECESSARY! Let’s celebrate my hole in one! It was TEE-RRIFIC!”
El Jardin is located at 6460 E. 73rd Ave.
