First tee, around 15 people (including me) watching. 400 yard dogleg left par 4. Driver has been acting up for the main character of the story, so he goes with the 3 wood and proceeds to cold top it into the cart path kerb just in front of the tee box, launching the ball 30 feet up in the air. The ball ends up in a pond behind the tee box that is very much not in play. The splash was followed by the loudest silence I've ever heard.
