New Tiger Woods Wife Outrun web game becomes Internet hit

Don’t be surprised if this whole Tiger Woods scandal spawns a merchandising blitzkrieg in the coming weeks; especially know that Woods has decided to take a sabbatical from golf to fix his fractured marriage.

While the predictably-expected “Team Erin” or “Team Tiger” t-shirts have yet to hit the shelves, software web game-makers have already released highly-entertaining games about the whole Tiger Woods fiasco.

One of the most popular games out there is Break.com’s “Tiger Woods Wife Outrun”, a game where you help Mr. Woods – and a female passenger – outrun a 9-iron-wielding Erin Nordgren by guiding his Cadillac Escalade through a series of obstacles - including trees, fire hydrants, rocks, golf bags, and babies. Hit one too many of these obstacles and watch as Woods feels the wrath of his club toting wife.

It’s a great way to spend your idle time and who knows, if you play this game long enough, you might find yourself among the top 5% of the over 1.7 million that have played the game since it was released.
