Are you talking about miniature golf?

That officer was an arrogant and smug sounding jerk. He was trying his best to get that kid to slip up. Good for the kid, he didn’t trip up on any of Barney’s word games.

I was thinking a career change. Denny’s is always hiring.

(I was going to say Waffle House, but I don’t think he has the aptitude.)

“Frisbee golf has been around since the invention of the pie pan.”

The Pie in the pan was eaten by a stoner who had the munchies who then invented Frisbie Golf.

I played frisbee golf in the late 60’s, full courses made using the lawns of the neighborhood homes. Another form of a frisbee sport is Ultimate Frisbee played on a football field with goals like in hockey or soccer.

It’s called disc golf, and it’s a professional sport, dude!

I’ll have to check it out. I know that it can’t go back very far, I had one of the very first Frisbees ever made back in 1958 (then called a “Pluto Platter”).

And that's not actually why we have police. They are not employed in order to entrap us. They are supposed to help us.

Ha-ha-ha, LOL! "They're supposed to help us." Good one. Jokes on you. They are hired to keep order, not to help us. It's been quite a few years since they helped people in addition to keeping order.

Stoner boy forgets to turn lights on.

Cop gives stoner boy ticket.

Cop talks to stoner boy, after saying stoner boy is free to go.

Stoner boy says inane things to cop for a minute and a half.

And stoner boy is a victim? The horror.

Anyone who thinks this is anything is worse than the Ferguson freaks.

And that was the whole deal here. The LEO had nothing better to do.

Did ya notice this was Iowa?

He was fishing. Most LEO’s do that as a matter of routine especially with young people and in smaller less populated venues.

In those venues they know they can push around and take advantage of some people....The infraction of a headlight turned into a potential pot caper. Of course this young person had a brain and could see he was suddenly part of his fishing adventure.

This cop wouldn’t last long in a venue like So. Central LA etc.

Most big camp LEO’s find out fast there is actual real crime all around and they certainly don’t have to go fishing for young people to mess with like this cop did.

Officer Aaron King best stay away from the bad camps and senseless murder districts. He wouldn’t like dealing with the real deal on single every shift. Folks in those camps have little or no fear and less to lose.

"Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with.

First of it’s not Frisbee Golf it’s Disc Golf, I’ve been at it for almost 30 years before I hung up the bag, my old knee’s couldn’t take it anymore. Played Pro level from 94 to 96 but I just couldn’t compete with the younger arms so I switched to Grand Masters (old farts). And yes these boy’s are historic pot smokers, any time between holes is an excuse to light up, even tried a little myself when I was out of snuff. Just a pinch between cheek and gum, then things got green and your behind the little animals. 3rd place in the World Doubles in 94 and 2nd place in 2004. I’ve played many tournaments from Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Oklahoma and Alabama and they’re the finest bunch of kids I’ve the honor to associate with. I still help out the local course as a judge and do fundraisers to improve the course. I also have the honor of being the first person to get an ace on the little 9 hole course I helped sponsor back in 90. We had set the base in concrete, let it dry then but in the basket and I was given the honor of the first drive, right in the middle of the chains from about 325 ft. It was a good day!

Hilarious. Did a stoner frisbee golfer steal your girlfriend back in the day? The only reason pot is in this discussion is because the cop inanely raised the issue.

What’s next, ifinnegan? Uh sir, step out of the car please, I see you have a willie Nelson cd.

No one back in the 70s ever referred to the frisbee as a disc when we played frisbee golf. Disc golf is what those later to the party called it.
