Sign of awesome putt-putt/minigolf

You know you're having a great time playing miniature golf when you can take photos like this. (This is my roommate taking a heroic heave at a ball that had gone a-swimming)



I mean, I've played at ratty courses (many a first-date-gone-bad story can be inserted here), but this place was something else. The surface was all torn up, there were beer/red bull cans strewn around, there were trash hazards. But of course, the coup-de-grace was the appearance of large bodies of water; huge ponds on the putt-putt course thanks to the rain last night. These things absolutely swallowed our brightly colored balls, and we were all soaked in the filthy water from trying to whack the damn balls out of them watery graves...

Sure, you could argue that we could have taken a shot penalty and played on solid (but soaking wet) ground, but no, we were being heroes today. Plus, what with balls, holes and sticks, we were being thirteen years old all over again...

  1. nice to hear you and roommate consummating your relationship, what with the:
    "brightly colored balls," "soaked in the filthy water," and "trying to whack the damn balls"
