We had a crazy day at the putt-putt place
Advertisements [?]
So we decide to go putt-putt today and were sadly disappointed to find out that a brazillion people had the same idea. Many of them with small children who were especially bad and a family who decided to play each hole one person at a time, 3 groups ahead of us.

So the group behind us was annoying by hole 2. There was a woman with two males playing in the group behind us. The youngest male who was probably in his teens, but possibly early twenties had no sense of personal space and constantly chased our putts and got really close to us. He was constantly getting so fucking close to us. The other male remained about 2 inches away from us at all times, even while we were putting. We kept moving away from him a few inches at a time and he kept moving closer. I had just assumed that he was also mentally challenged but Bi-Baby had overheard them talking and close-guy was the husband and father. He wasn't challenged but he was an economist according to said overheard conversation.

We were having a great, long, long, long time through 8 holes when we reached a 6 group backup on hole 9. The people still flailing away on the green were the same group fucking up while we were finishing up hole 6. They refused to give up. Fuck it, you had to wait 10-15 minutes for every hole so why not finish each one.

So on hole 9 we wait about 20-30 minutes for this fuck up group to finish. It was a really hard hole and the following groups took a long time to finish but nowhere near as long.

So it's finally our turn and I luckily hit a miracle shot on stroke three and Bi-Baby is failing to get it in the hole. She's on about shot 7 or so (the hole was a side hill so when you miss you miss badly).

The mom starts yelling out to us, "The maximum is 6 shots!!"

Bi-Baby acknowledges her but then goes back to putting. As she's hitting her next putt the woman starts yelling again more obnoxiously that the rules state that you only get 6 shots. "You only get six shots!!! Helooooo!!! Six!!!"

Bi-Baby shoots her a look and picks up her ball. It totally ruined the day. I couldn't even keep score anymore because I was so angry and wanting to stay as far away from the socially awkward family (actually, I wanted to make a huge fucking scene but Bi-Baby wouldn't let me). Here's the scorecard. Hole 17 was the best score. It only took 2 hours to complete the round.
