I never understood why my friends, in all of their purebred American glory, felt the need to celebrate May fifth. But alas, I will indubitably be picking each and every one of them up at La Nopalera tonight because they felt compelled to drink that extra margarita in celebration of "my brothers’ independence." Yes, this is a quote from a friend of mine. He was born in Maine.
May 9th, on the other hand, is my kind of holiday and one definitely worth celebrating. Adventure Landing has declared the second Saturday of every May "National Miniature Golf Day" [enter sorority squeal of excitement here]. All three area locations will be participating in this event and are offering a free Miniature Golf Season Pass ($79.99 value - or four manicures) to the first 100 guests that purchase a round of golf. Adventure Landing will also be offering unlimited miniature golf for the day for the price of a 2-game ticket. For all of you math whizzes (and I am one to talk, I received a less than impressive a B- in finite math!?) that’s unlimited mini golf for the day for only $7.
So granted, today is Cinco de Mayo but I say pass on that Patron and save your $7 [and show me a bar that has a Patron shot for that cheap] for a whole day’s worth of fun this Saturday! If you know me, you know I’ll be one of the first in line. Happy holidays!
