Miniature Golf in a Funeral Home Basement

By Queuebot in Sports, Travel on Dec 3, 2009 at 10:28 am

Hidden in a Chicago suburb is a funeral home with a 9-hole mini golf course in the basement! Fred Abercrombie made a stop in Palatine, Illinois to visit Ahlgrim Acres, a community room hidden underneath Ahlgrim Funeral Home and took quite a few pictures of the infamous golf course with a haunted theme.

Neat stuff from the NeatoShop:

    Smart! Why not make use of the space and make some extra money? And it sounds like it’s in a small town and every small town I’ve ever lived in needed more entertainment venues. And at first glance, I wasn’t sure about the haunted theme, but then I thought about it and realized that it isn’t like the idea of it being in a funeral home isn’t escaping anyone. Lots of folks are already gonna be talking about the creepy factor, so why not take the punch out of it by making light of it?

    So long as the funeral home is open during the day for funeral stuff and the mini-golf is open during the neat for amusements, it’s an awesome idea. I wouldn’t want the operating hours for the two to overlap,though. That way if people were mourning the loss of a loved one, they wouldn’t have to come in contact with people having a great time in the downstairs.

    oops, I meant “open during the night”, not “neat”

    Hey – why should guys miss the opportunity to do a little putting just because the wife has kicked the bucket. They should have a spa in the basement for wives when the old man goes to the great beyond. Very relaxing in a time of stress.

    Cool! They have a copy of L’Inconnue de la Seine, I am soooo jealous.

    That is perhaps the most hardcore thing ever associated with the name Abercrombie.

    The picture here looks kind of like that thing that appears on the transporter platform to announce Troi’s impending wedding in that one episode of STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION.

    Very nice idea i think you can make more money by some more decorating it.
