Well, that's a course of a different color!

Obviously, we are constantly seeking ways to attain our mini golf fix in the cold winter months. As soon as I realized the existence of Glow Golf, located in the mall down the street, we had to go.

As I predicted, Glow Golf was amusing, a little ghetto and staffed by stoned teenagers. For a whopping $9 a person you get "54 holes" of golf. What this really means is that you get to go around 3 times, if you can tolerate such repetition. I cannot. We did 18 holes for $9.

The stoned teenager at the front wasn't a "good explainer", so it wasn't until halfway through that we understood what these were for

 

It makes your ball glow; which is convenient since the room is...dark. These pink flash boxes were scattered throughout the course. The more you flash the ball, the brighter it glows!  

All of the course equipment and the walls were painted with black light sensitive paint which made for some sweet ambience and met my expectations for what Glow Golf should be.

 

The black-light-sensitive-painted walls were just paper murals that looked like paint-by-numbers that I do in my spare time. 

 

While it was probably the best possible decor for me; I still wonder why they went with a jungle theme. I had expected that it would have been more "cyber" or "spacey" or "hackers"-like. 

The course itself was a modern twist on an old classic! Not really, but at least there was a windmill

All the other holes were made to be extra challenging by inconveniently-placed starfish

 

The result was a lot of bounced-back balls and taking the maximum allotted amount of strokes (7). After all was said and done, my score was abysmal and way beyond normal limits.

The final hole was this monstrosity

 

If your ball makes it down through the pegs into the hole you get a prize. Otherwise, it just goes into the larger catch-all at the bottom. Being an extra special winner, Adam's ball did this

What do we get for that, stoned teenager? Nothing? Thanks for a great time!
