Wait’ll you get a frisbee in the back of the head, Earl.

The group following wishes to continue their round of bocce.

…and then come the bowlers.

Father’s Day treat? Golf/crouquet?

When I lived in Fort Worth Texas back in the 80’s we went golfing on May 5th one time. The course was very crowded with families of Mexicans walking the fairways. They thought it was a public park.

Wait for the Golf Cart races to start !

You want a sport that seems genteel, but in reality is vicious? No, friend, not golf nor even croquet. You want gateball.

Wondering whose bright idea it was to open the golf course to croquet?

If the croquet players are passing you, you may already be dead.

This gives a whole new meant to letting things run its course….

Cross-country croquet is a real thing! Okay, maybe only in my friend Bill’s yard, but real none-the-less.

The only golf I liked playing was Cowboy Golf – which we used to play on horseback at desert courses in Arizona. No grassy fairways or water hazards, but lots of sand traps, prickly obstacles, really rough roughs and impatient horses.

That’s one way to make golf interesting.

Finally, a combining of the two biggest wastes of time ever conceived.
