Russ Berkman of Seattle, Washington had tickets to see the practice round for The Masters at Augusta National today.  He had a trip planned to Georgia ... and then, a few days ago, his DOG ATE HIS TICKETS!

When Russ realized his dog, Sierra, had eaten the tickets, he came up with a plan ... a really awful but successful plan.  He made Sierra VOMIT by giving her hydrogen peroxide ... which is allegedly safe for animals ... then sifted through it and somehow pieced the tickets back together.

Then he took a photo of his ticket pieces, sent them to officials at August, and they actually issued him replacement tickets.  Sierra is doing fine.
