Ghetto Golf at the Custard Factory in Birmingham

A revisit to the Ghetto Golf course at the Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham.

Over the weekend we revisited the Ghetto Golf course at the Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham. Last year the indoor Crazy Golf course became the 780th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Ghetto Golf is a Cool Spot to visit

Sonic the Hedgehog appears on the final hole (Final Zone?)

Super Mario can be found on the course too

As can Donkey Kong!

The final few holes are all retro videogame related

I love this piece of artwork and the use of the wall

Hole 1 at Ghetto Golf

The last Blockbuster in the UK?

A sporting hybrid of tenpin bowling and minigolf

There's also a Ghetto Golf course in Liverpool that we're yet to visit. Check out the Ghetto Golf website for opening times and prices.

Happy Birthday Pac-Man

Today is Pac-Man's 38th birthday!

Pac-Man was originally launched in Japan on the 22nd May 1980. His first appearance in the USA was on the 10th October.

The last place I saw Pac-Man was at Level in Preston while visiting the new Crazy Golf course there

I'm a big fan of Pac-Man and have seen him (and some of his clones) a fair bit on my travels.

'Pac-Man' on a shop sign in Preston

Check out all the other Pac-Man related blog posts on the Ham & Egger Files. I think Credit Cruncher in Bristol is my favourite bootleg Pac-Man shop sign.

Happy National Video Game Day!

Happy National Video Game Day 2017.

We were recently in Tamworth - to play the new Castle Adventure Golf course at Namco Funscape - and noticed this giant piece of video game graffiti on a legal graffiti wall on an underpass!
