We need more Putt-Putt!
I saw an artist designed Miniature Golf at the South St. Seaport. It
was really, really cool. And these things are really popular. I'd love
to see one in the convention center or the Casino.
The info below is from the Minneapolis version:
Hours: Weather permitting, Thursday-Saturday, 10 am-8 pm; Sunday, 11
am-8 pm. Labor Day: Monday, September 6, 11 am-8 pm. Last tee time is 1
hour before closing. Wait times can be in excess of an hour. You must
appear in person to get on the wait list.
In case of inclement weather, Mini Golf will reopen within 30 minutes of
the conclusion of the weather event. If weather remains an issue at 5pm
on weekdays or 2pm on weekends and holidays, we will not reopen until
the next regularly scheduled game day.
The sights in the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden just keep getting more
like Alice's Wonderland: to a setting that already includes a mirrored
labyrinth, a bronze rabbit leaping a bell, and an enormous
spoon-and-cherry fountain, add an ice-fishing shack, a twisty pachinko
game, and architectural ruins from 1933-not to mention a few dozen golf
clubs. Walker in the Rough, a mini-golf course designed by area artists
and architects, is now open, offering 10 flights of fancy for "goofy
golf" fanatics and novices alike. Though these stylish holes can't be
placed on a par with mini golf's customary roadside-art standards of
taste, they have been created especially for the Garden. Join us for
mini golf, Walker-style, now through Labor Day.
