Beer With Balls

There is something inherently wrong with putt-putt golf: There is usually no beer involved. Apparently, putt-putt course owners don't like to serve booze because of the young clientele that frequents their establishments.

There is something inherently wrong with putt-putt golf: There is usually no beer involved.

But then came the 2007 Pub & Putt Classic, a bar crawl/putt-putt golf course that aligns my two loves for an afternoon of bliss.

The golfing continues until 5 p.m., when an after-party ensues at Delaney's, 1805 Blake Street, and prizes are given for most creatively dressed and best player.
