Synopsis :
1851. A ruined bourgeois wins at a game, but forgets the ticket in the suit he just sold.
« Le Billet » is part of a series of seven comedies written by Eugene Fricotin and recounting the adventures, pathetic as much as entertaining, of a Parisian bourgeois in the 19th century: Gaspard de Saint-Alban.

The origins of "Snow golf"
The origins of "Snow golf" are quite controversial. They say that it was already being played in the XVIIth century in Scotland, or even that it was in Canada that a handful of golf lovers had the idea to play golf in the snow, equipped with racquets on their feet and improvising a course market out by flags. For others, it was the writer Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936), author of "The Jungle Book", that invented the concept at his American home in Vermont, accompanied by Sir Authur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes), who was also passionate about golf.
