I just saw something on one of the social media nostalgia sites, reminiscing about the old Putt Putt Golf on Veterans Blvd in Metairie , near Transcontinental Blvd, next to a Burger King.. i remember that location from the 1980s and 1990s.. but i also know for a fact that there was a Putt Putt in Kenner, on Veterans and Williams Blvd, where Home Depot is now (or has been for the last 30 something yrs, not sure if still there).. I can remember this Putt Putt location from when i was a very little kid in the late 1970s.. however, i havent ever seen this location mentioned or acknowledged .. any oldheads out there who remember this Putt Putt location i speak of ?

I was the star of the commercial that ran on the channel 44 station that eventually became fox in BR. Somewhere around ‘88. We supplied our own wardrobe. Wore head-to-toe royal blue Champion sweat pants and sweatshirt for the advert. Breathtaking. I improvised a little body English/lean action on a close-up of me faking a 12-ft runner on one of the trickier hole setups. And the director came up to me and said, “Young man, You. Have. Got. It.”

True story.

Yep. 10 year old me thought this was the greatest place ever, along with the video game arcade on the other side of Veterans.

Putt Putt, Fun Fair Park, and Don Carters were GOAT birthday parties. McDonalds too at one time.

Played at the one next to BK many times.
Don’t remember another one in Metairie/ Kenner.
Pretty sure the Home Depot location was a Schwegmanns Supermarket.
