“This 9/11-themed golf course ad is a real thing that ran in today’s Wisconsin State Journal,” tweeted Josh Orton.

Tumbledown Trails, the name of which makes it sound like a delightful place where the Velveteen Rabbit went to retire, is currently having a lively time on their Facebook page, where there are hundreds of posted opinions—most of them accompanied by a surplus of exclamation points and/or ellipses, and most of them serving as excellent reminders of why reading internet comments and visiting Facebook are terrible, terrible ideas.

With honor and distinction, Erik Henriksen served as the executive editor of the Portland Mercury from 2004 to 2020. He can now be found at henriksenactual.com.

  1. “How are you guys celebrating 9/11? Me and the dudes are going to be at Thirsty Lion happy hour, then hitting Dirty! I heard that girls will totally show their boobs on 9/11!”

  2. Oh, my hometown. Trust me: less a place for the Velveteen Rabbit to retire and more a place for it to get chased around by asshole teens in golf carts.

    Not mentioned in the ad: saying secret password “Muhammad Attah” at the register gets you a free bucket of range balls.

    Also, shouldn’t the 18 hole price be cheaper per hole to pay as an incentive than then 9 hole price? Maybe I just don’t get golf.
