Riverside's Castle Park: Southern California's Minigolf Mecca
Splendor in the "grass" among pagodas, minarets and mine shafts
Nelson, I’m sure, has his counterpart at some of the more weathered courses: the warm, kindly soul you can’t imagine the park without, as much a fixture as the grumbling miners at course 4, hole 5. At his home turf, he strolls the course intermittently during the day, saying hello to the patrons and pointing the confused ones in the right direction when they start on one course and end up putting on another. He’ll make sure no one’s getting overly rowdy, as can happen when 10 guys come in, throw 10 bucks each into a pot, and the winner takes all. In his experience, everyone makes up, then they break their own rules. Except for the one, cardinal rule that governs the day: “Please hit balls easy.”
