The 12 ft hovering witch home depot is a peculiar and intriguing concept. The idea of a hovering witch that can be purchased at a home depot store is both whimsical and perplexing. This magical creation is not only impressive in its size but also in its ability to hover in mid-air. Imagine walking into a home depot and coming across a towering witch figure, standing at a remarkable 12 feet. The sheer size of this spectacle is bound to capture attention and garner curiosity from shoppers. Its appearance would undoubtedly be eye-catching, with its elaborate costume, pointed hat, and broomstick at the ready.

It started with "Get in the Hole" but, like it or not, golf crowd screams have become a part of the game, mostly across the pond. From 'Mashed Potatoes' to 'Bababooey', here are the most common golf crowd screams.

Most Common Golf Crowd Screams

Mashed Potatoes

When speaking to the Golf Channel, Andrew Widmar said that his Mum asked if she'd see him on TV, to which he replied "if you heard mashed potatoes, you'll know I was there." It caught on and is now one of the most commonly heard golf crowd shouts.

It's even been shouted at the Ryder Cup, on European soil.

Baba Booey

'Baba Booey' is the nickname of Gary Dell'ABate, who is executive producer for the popular Howard Stern Radio Show in New York. Why it's shouted at PGA Tour events? Who knows.

It was heard at Augusta last year too.

Light the Candle

Yabadabadoo

Fred Flinstone's famous catchphrase somehow made it to the US Open.

Taste the Rainbow

A slogan made famous by Skittles in their advertising campaigns

Boomshakalaka

We aren't quite sure what this one means.

Chewbacca

Han Solo's loyal friend from the Star Wars franchise has even been heard.

People even make the Chewbacca call.

Its appearance would undoubtedly be eye-catching, with its elaborate costume, pointed hat, and broomstick at the ready. What sets this particular witch apart from others is its unique ability to hover above the ground. This feat of engineering and magic combined is truly remarkable.

Why Adam Scott thinks it's good for golf if fans yell weird stuff at tournaments

NEW YORK–“Mashed Potatoes!” Adam Scott has heard that one. “Light the candle!” That one too. But here’s one you might not know the pro golfer said he’s heard a bunch: People in tournament galleries shouting “My mom loves you!!” But Scott — who was in New York promoting his new Uniqlo golf collection, doing some work as the company’s global brand ambassador — doesn’t actually mind those shouts. In fact, he thinks it’s good for the future of the game. “We need that kind of stuff,” he told For The Win on Monday. “I’m not against it. Certainly I don’t want players being put off during their swings. I think if everyone’s having a good time and it’s not offensive, then absolutely.” Even if it’s, “Say hello to your mother for me”? “Maybe that one’s getting close depending how it was said,” Scott replied. “Generally, I think if you can laugh on the golf course, that’s a good thing,” he continued. “It’s so serious and all the positive things a smile can do for releasing tension, a laugh out there, there’s nothing wrong with it.”

But for Scott, this kind of fun is what will make golf watchable and more appealing to a younger crowd. Finding a balance between that and keeping players concentrating on the tough task at hand on a course is the challenge. “From the players’ standpoint, we’re scrutinized for poor performance,” he explained. “It takes a lot of concentration and preparation to perform at a higher level that we’re being asked to perform at. Players’ careers can be defined by one shot at the right time, to win the major or not. It’s massive, yet we need people to really engage with us to continue to want to support golf.” “It comes down to TV contracts and if people are interested in watching it, then someone will put it on television,” he added. “It needs to have that entertainment. So the balance point is tough to get. I think we can’t be so stuffy because the world is not so stuffy anymore. We’re far more liberal than we once were.”

Top 5 Golf Shouts

Lighting candles or mashing potatoes? Love them or hate them, they're here to stay and there's nothing fans won't shout after seeing their favourite player smash one off of the tee. Here are our top 5.

No. 5 - MASHED POTATO.


A golf staple. It might not mean an awful lot, but is by far the most popular shout on the course and can be heard up and down fairways on the PGA tour in the US.

No. 4 - BABBABOOEY.


Where did this come from? It appears as if this all started at the US Open in 2002. Bethpage on Long Island was the venue for Tiger’s second US Open victory and happens to be where many Howard Stern fans call home. The shock jock’s executive producer is Gary Dell’Abate, and his nickname is “Baba Booey”. The story goes that some Howard Stern fan wanted to be noticed while attending the tournament and shouted out baba booey, and it has stuck ever since.

No. 3 - GIVE ME BACK MY SON.


Captured at our recent trip down south to the LIV Golf London 2023 event on the 4th tee at the Centurion Club with Phil Mickelson lining up his drive. One of the spectators must be under the impression that Phil had taken his son.

No. 2 - YEAH PLAYA!


Understated. We all know of Tiger's off-course endeavours, so if there was one guy in the golfing world which this shout is perfect for, its its Tiger Woods.

No. 1 - LIGHT THE CANDLE.


WHAT?! Light the candle? Whatever it means, say something with enough conviction and you'll earn your spotlight, and perhaps even your place in a GolfPunk article.

Reviews for "Strange Happenings: The 12 ft Hovering Witch at Home Depot"

1. John - 2 stars - I was really looking forward to having a spooky Halloween decoration for my yard, but the 12 ft hovering witch from Home Depot disappointed me. First of all, it was a nightmare to set up. The instructions were unclear, and it took me hours to figure out how to get it to hover properly. Even then, it didn't look convincing at all. The materials used were cheap, and the witch looked more like a deflated balloon than a menacing figure. Overall, a waste of money and effort.
2. Sarah - 1 star - The 12 ft hovering witch from Home Depot was a complete disaster. It didn't even come close to what was shown in the picture or video. The supposed hovering mechanism was faulty, and the witch just sagged down like a limp noodle. The lights didn't work properly, and the colors were dull. It looked nothing like the spooky decoration I was expecting, and I ended up removing it from my yard within a day. Avoid this product unless you want to be disappointed and frustrated.
3. Mike - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the 12 ft hovering witch from Home Depot, but it fell short in many ways. The quality of the materials was subpar, and the witch didn't hold its shape well. The supposed hovering feature was a letdown, as it couldn't stay upright for more than a few minutes. The sound effects were weak, and the overall effect was more comical than spooky. For the price I paid, I expected something much better. I can't recommend this product to anyone looking for a realistic and impressive Halloween decoration.
4. Emily - 3 stars - The 12 ft hovering witch from Home Depot had its flaws, but it was decent overall. The setup was a bit tricky, and the witch didn't hover as smoothly as I expected, but it managed to stay upright most of the time. The lights and sound effects were average, nothing exceptional. The quality of the materials used could have been better, as it felt flimsy. It was an okay decoration option for Halloween, but I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it to others.
