Daily Mail reports that 300 to 400 teens at a Memphis Putt-Putt Fun Center were told the place was shutting down when the operators realized they were overcrowded, and some didn’t handle it well.
Parents must accompany minors but the parents who came with them had left.
The staff weren’t able to give the teens refunds over a faulty game machine so some of the kids rioted.
Video shot by one person, Tatiana Lak, who was at the Putt-Putt Fun Center said trouble suddenly erupted after some of the games consoles began swallowing money with staff seemingly unable to offer prompt refunds.
One girl tore the plexiglass divider down and threw it at staff behind the counter. She grabbed a metal rope stand and threw it at the staff. She was seen spitting at staff.
The staff was terrified but successfully dodged the projectiles.
One person set off a firework indoors.
Ms. Lak, who posted the video online wrote: “Something was wrong with their machines today because when they credited our attractions card for 5 attractions the money didn’t upload, HOWEVER, they were very understanding and still let us get on each attraction several times.”
Police officers responded to the call after the parents of the teens had left the property.
These kids have seriously screwed up priorities.
PUTT PUTT STATEMENT
The mini-golf center released a statement on their Facebook page on Sunday afternoon written by the center’s general manager, Aaron Boss.
“Unfortunately, yesterday evening we had an incident that we have never experienced in 57 years of business. Parents chose to leave large groups of teenagers at our facility without parental supervision. Some of those people chose to create a disturbance the likes of which we have never seen. We are very thankful that none of our Golf and Games family or customers were injured in this situation.”
“We are actively working with authorities to identify those involved and hold them accountable for their actions. Going forward, all minors must be accompanied by their parent or guardian while at Golf and Games. Anyone that is left unattended will be asked to leave.”
“We are and always have tried to be the locally-owned place for family entertainment for almost six decades. And we will always welcome those who choose to share their family experiences with us. We look forward to serving you soon.”

Once upon a time…a branch of my family lived in Memphis. The house is still there. Last I heard it was being restored by some historical group. When, and if, it is completed, we won’t be visiting it.
Then there is the trips to Tunica we made several times a year. Won’t be doing that anymore, due to behavior which may suddenly explode. Such as the incident in this article.
Biloxi, New Orleans, et al, have all been written off as possible vacation destinations due to the untrustworthiness of the local governments to maintain law and order in their jursisdictions. They could very well become ghost towns in the near future if this nonsense continues.
How many folks have decided to avoid the areas where the dems/progs are in power? Its not a boycott, its a defensive measure to stay healthy and alive.
The participants in the destruction of the Memphis putt-putt should be rounded up and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Along with their parents. Restitution for damages to the business is in order.
Yeah, like that’ll happen.
Just sayin’.
It was Putt-Putt brutality! The teens were just in pursuit of justice and human rights; they’re following the examples set before them by Antifa and BLM; and they will probably be rewarded like Kaepernick, chosen to be among this year’s recipients of the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Award (sarcasm).
If only the correct and proper task had been performed in 1865/1866. The USA would have been a far superior country in a multitude of ways if the task would have been done.
This was pre-meditated. They tried to close when they saw what was happening (flash mob) for safety code and fire reasons (too many occupants). Not because they were black, but to keep their business license in case this scam was to go after their license by bringing in so many kids at once and NOT closing.
Their “parents” deliberately left for plausible deniability reasons while the kids carried out their orders to cause chaos.
Every arcade usually has a machine that doesn’t work. Wouldn’t be surprised if that machine was sabotaged. Or, the plan was to lie about a machine to get free tokens. Either way, this seems pre-meditated by blacks to shut down a family business.
Right now, most smaller businesses are going under and this may have been an attempt to do just that to putt-putt or whatever it’s called.
With attitudes like this on full display is why blacks are not wanted in neighborhoods not because of racism.
