I found these pictures and this story on flickr: "The best miniature golf course ever, on Chapman, in Orange, California. Pro golfers played there: Arnold Palmer was on the top ten list of best scores! I was a fanatic in my high school years, and ended up #2 on the list (ahead of Palmer!) myself. It was also the site of several dates with Carol (Robin) and the site of my first date with Penny. Alas, it was wiped out in the late seventies or early eighties, for a freeway interchange." Photos: January 2, 1967 Can you imagine Arnold Palmer ripping it up here? That is amazing.
