My visit came during a trip to Denver to attend a week-long sports conference in the city. During some down time I travelled outside the city limits to play miniature golf in the Boondocks.

As it was '$12 Tuesday' I had unlimited play on the minigolf courses - the Caverns Mill and Hillbilly Hallow - that sit next to Interstate-25. I managed to fit in three rounds on the two layouts.

They were the 82nd and 83rd courses played on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

A token from the Boondocks

One of the minigolf tokens in my collection came from a visit to play the two miniature golf courses at Boondocks Fun Center in the town of Northglenn, Colorado, USA.

It was one of the arcade machine tokens in use at the fun center when I visited in March 2009.

Do you know of any minigolf courses that still have tokens when you win on the lucky last hole, or in use at attached arcades or fun centres?

Minigolf Course Visit No. 82 & 83 - Boondocks, Colorado

A visit to Boondocks Fun Center in Northglenn, USA.

While in Denver I travelled 12 miles north of the city to visit and play Minigolf courses number 82 & 83 on my world tour of Minigolf courses.

Located at Boondocks Fun Center in the town of Northglenn, Colorado are two 18-hole courses - the Caverns Mill and Hillbilly Hallow - that sit next to Interstate-25.

As it was $12 Tuesday I had unlimited Miniature Golf and managed to fit in three rounds on the very busy courses.

My scores were:
- Hillbilly Hallow Course - 50(+14)
- Caverns Mill Course - 48(+12)
- Hillbilly Hallow Course - 44(+8)

As they were very over-par scores it proves that (mini)golf balls do go farther at high altitude!
