Locals hang out in the part of Augusta, Georgia rarely seen when the world tunes into the Masters golf tournament.

Nero used to work at Augusta as part of a cleaning company that shampooed the carpets. Despite Augusta National's proximity to them, the three feel little connection to the world's most prestigious golf club.
