Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for July 17, 2022

I feel that the rules don’t apply to me

nothing like a family outing, yes?

My son made several home runs playing miniature golf. I am not sure he understood the rules. I suspect he simply liked his rules better, though.

At first I thought she hit Hamie with the ball and knocked him out.

She needs the practice!

If there’s no one waiting to play behind you, let the kids take as many shots as they need to, sheesh

I have a granddaughter that is like Zoe. For Christmas we got there the Cheaters edition of Monopoly. Yes it’s a real thing.

Well we know she’s not the next Tiger Woods or female equivalent

Wren!

I have not played miniature golf since I was a teenager in the 1960’s, and there is something here that I don’t understand. Is there actually such a rule? How do you progress to the next hole if you have not actually gotten the ball into the hole?

Mom! Grab her ball and put it in the hole and go forward-for cripes sake.

How are you supposed to get a ball in the hole in the clown’s mouth?

Meanwhile other groups are lining up behind them hoping to get a chance.

I tried miniature golf, first one easy hole in one the rest down hill, last time I did that.

Six strokes—but how many mulligans?

Penalize her one stroke for slow play like they do in the Pros and just move on.

When my family plays, we take all the strokes we need. but cap the count at 6 for the score-card.

(And no, we don’t block other teams. We don’t generally play when it’s that crowded and if there are people behind us, we’ll step aside from time to time and let others play through.)

This would have been funnier, if they left the different numbers above Zoe’s head and the left side leader, as in the original comic.

Haha! XD

Would you “wait,” Zoe if it was Hammie doing that?
