Whenever there is a golf game in the TV show, one or both of the following effects may occur: 1. The rules say that the ball must be hit from where it lands, no matter what. Slapstick ensues as the ball goes into the most insane places, such as in the middle of the street or onto moving trucks. This may occasionally be subject to a Lampshade Hanging as the other players urge the character, in vain, to take the penalty stroke. 2. A hit golf ball bounces from several things (such as tree branches) before finally either going straight into the hole or landing right where it started. May be a stroke of luck, which ensures that the good guy wins the golfing tournament, or occasionally wreck their effort to Do Well, But Not Perfect. See also Bizarre and Improbable Ballistics. Often the protagonist will be playing against their boss, who expects to win. The protagonist will have to lose in a way that looks natural, and overlook blatant cheating. This trope usually makes a golfer play a ball in a place where nobody in the real world would (extremely close to a dangerous animal like a bear or alligator is popular). There are rules that cover this, and usually the writers are oblivious to them (or simply choose to ignore them in the name of hilarity ensuing). In the cartoon version, all players must wear hideously ugly clothing (sometimes happens in real life as well) and must wiggle their behinds when setting up a shot. |

The Penguins of Madagascar episode "Mr. Tux" had a plot centered around this. And made no apologies for the obviously physics-defying shots. Apparently Mr. Tux is really just so good at mini-golf that he can bend physics to his will. | |

Kamen Rider Fourze had one of these with the Taurus Zodiarts. Long story short, Taurus is a disciplinarian gone mad who challenges students to contests (even allowing them to pick the contest) and, if he wins, forces them to obey the strictest of rules. After most of the heroes (including Fourze) fall victim to his powers, Kamen Rider Meteor steps up and challenges Taurus to his specialty: golf. Yes, a game of golf between a minotaur monster and a Henshin Hero. And neither of them uses actual golf clubs, instead preferring their simple staves. | |

The Tom and Jerry short "Tee for Two" turns into this as Tom proves to be a horrible linkster. He fudges his score card with a score of 2, but when Jerry shakes his head shaming him, Tom grudgingly changes the score to 32. The cartoon even opens with Tom busting a sinew trying to shoot his way out of a bunker. | |

In a brief scene in Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn, Goten is hit by a golf ball while retrieving a Dragon Ball from a golf course. Angry about the hit, he proceeds to take revenge by dropping the ball into a nearby hole... cut to the old man who was playing being completely elated at getting his first hole-in-one. | |

The MythBusters did a couple myths regarding golf—specifically, that it was better to hit through a tree than to try and shoot around because the tree is 90% airnote Anyone who's tried to hit a golf ball through a chain-link fence, itself 90% air, can spot the problem with that one and that a C4 explosion could cause a ball to fall in the hole. Both were Busted. During the testing of the first myth at Pebble Beach, Kari and Grant wore the stereotypical fashion-disaster golf outfits, while Tory (the only one of the three with actual golfing experience) had an outfit more likely to be worn by an actual golfer (a polo shirt, light pants, and golf shoes). Later, Tory engaged in a contest against Grant's golfing robot (actually an air cannon) to see who could shoot more balls through a tree. Tory won. | |

Related to the Looney Tunes repertoire, "Raw! Raw! Rooster" has Foghorn Leghorn visited by his showoff college roommate Rhode Island Red. In a bid to outshow Red, Foggy substitues regular golf balls with exploding balls for Red to hit as Foggy runs for the hills. Red hits the ball, but it doesn't explode until it hits Foggy. Confused and flustered, Foggy takes a swing at a ball and it explodes on contact. | |

Some characters seem to indulge in this merely for the property damage. Gosalyn does this with a hockey puck in the first episode of Darkwing Duck, from the nose of a gangster. In a following episode, she is about to whack the ball off of her own father's bill before he calmly asks, "Have I ever told you the story about the little girl, the golf ball, and the firing squad?" | |

The entire second half of "Tee Off, Mr. Bean" is an example of this trope. Mr. Bean plays on a mini-golf course, but after hitting the ball too hard it flies out of the course and he pursues it around town, into the sewers, on the bus, through a grocery store, etc. Finally he cuts a piece out of the ground where the ball sits and brings it back to the course late at night to finish the hole with a score of 3,427. Some critics unkindly accused this sketch of being an inferior retread of the Marty Feldman version. |

The Aqua Teen Hunger Force golf video game took this to new heights, by combining the merely improbable (such as multiple rebounds) with the flat-out insane (such as your meatball friend absorbing the ball into himself so you can steer where it ends up, Frylock electrifying the ball so it goes further, and the ball being Made of Explodium). Courses take place on the Moon, in Hell, and in some kind of bizarre drug-fueled hallucinoland, and some of the holes are actually kart racing. Also, you need to take a chainsaw with you while moving around the course, in case you are attacked by time-travelling robot turkeys, mummies, or machine-gun-toting flowers. Basically, its sole similarity with golf is that getting a ball into a hole is an important step. | |

Birdie Wing: Not about 'Play it where it lies' in this show. That's small potatoes. Every element of golf in this series is unhinged. Its answer to the question of whether you should hit through a tree or around is to literally hit through the tree - like, the ball hits a branch, snaps it off and is barely slowed down. Another drive passes, in dramatic slow motion, between train carriages. Some drives merit Calling Your Attacks. Then there's the sinister underground golf Mafia with its secret modular course that can replicate any hole, anywhere. Then there's the golf hole on the top of a mesa with no visible access surrounded by a storm-wracked sea seen in a flashback. | |

Golf With Your Friends makes it on this list if only because of its rather loose definition of the word "ball", which includes but not limited to polyhedrons, eggs, cones, cubes, and hockey pucks (which are much easier to hit than the rest!). Though the game is based on mini golf, many of the levels have structures and hazards that would be difficult or impossible to feature in a real course, such as moving platforms, jungle bridges, and portals. | |

An early episode of Scrubs had J.D. joining Dr Cox and Dr Kelso for their regular golf game. This led to a sequence of scenes in which Cox and Kelso debated medical ethics through J.D., apparently unconcerned that he was trying to play balls that had landed in increasingly ridiculous positions. | |

Happy Gilmore did both, in perhaps one of the most over-the-top examples. First, Shooter McGavin has to hit his ball off of Mr. Larson's foot, then a tower falls upon the eighteenth green in front of Happy's ball. Instead of taking two strokes to hit the ball around the tower and proceed to sudden death, Happy hits it up onto the fallen tower's pieces, which now act like a mini-golf tunnel-tube arrangement that just so happens to put the ball in the hole, giving victory to Happy in a single stroke. All in the space of five minutes. | |

In an episode of Rocko's Modern Life, "Teed Off", Ed Bighead plays against his boss, Mr. DuPette, and in order to make sure DuPette wins, Ed's manager has the golf course management launch pianos at Ed's ball (and occasionally Ed) from many improbable piano launchers, including a Kill Sat. But Heffer, who is working at the golf course and oblivious to the fact Ed is supposed to lose, tries to help Ed. At the end, Ed wins, and while Ed's manager is furious, Mr. DuPette doesn't seem to mind (however, unfortunately for Ed, he doesn't give him the promotion he was hoping for). | |

The last event of a Laff-A-Lympics episode ("Grand Canyon/Ireland") was a golf game where the object was to score a hole in one. Cindy Bear wrote "18th hole" on the ball (she took addressing the ball literally) and used an umbrella for a golf club. She hit the ball at the wrong direction and it hit several random things until falling into the hole. Cindy won the game. | |

According to Death's Domain: A Discworld Mapp, Death's golf course is designed to have bizarre and improbable effects, since it's filled with dimensional instabilities, folds in space-time, and gravitational anomalies, all in an effort to counteract The Grim Reaper's Awesomeness by Analysis which prevents him from understanding that getting a small ball to go exactly where you want is supposed to be difficult. It also has a windmill, the symbol of crazy golf everywhere. It grinds the balls very finely. The accompanying illustration shows Death in his normal robes, but Albert, caddying, sports the traditional tartan plus-fours and silly hat. | |

In the Triptych Continuum short piece A Good Trot, Spoiled, this trope is just about the whole of the sport — purposefully. Minotaurs have designed golf to be deliberately infuriating, with every inch of the course enchanted to produce the most outlandish and rage-inducing results each time a player takes a swing — because the goal is to work out stress by sending the player into a state where they finally express all that anger within the padded pit which makes up the nineteenth hole. Basically, take Bethpage's Black Course, throw in a little TPC Sawgrass, add in the fine manipulations allowed by earth pony, pegasus, and unicorn magic, then dial everything up. This results in a course where your putt swerved right because microridges in the soil told it to, the rough is hidden by illusion, and the wind does in fact hate you — with every countering element steadily growing stronger as you move towards the end. Celestia silently sums it all up somewhere around the sixteenth hole. | |

Popeye, Brutus, Olive and Wimpy participate in a rather unusual game of golf in "Golf Brawl." Olive can't sink a putt, Wimpy can't hit the ball, and Popeye and Brutus as usual compete against each other under the mantra "Play the ball where it lies!" Brutus gets a literal birdie note (One under par from tee-off to hole in regulation golf) when he hits a hawk's egg by accident and the chick hatches and attacks him. | |

"Hole in One (Or Two)" is a game played on The Price Is Right. How close to the hole you get to putt the ball depends on how well you pick grocery items from the cheapest to most costly. Some contestants will have the ball putted so hard it bounces off the greens barricade and into the hole. (Former show model Janice Pennington actually had that happen when she made a practice putt.) | |

The Mario Golf series tend to be pretty realistic depictions of golf, other than the characters and the visual effects... that is until Super Rush and the "Speed Golf" mode, where all 4 characters play at the same time, have to run after the ball after hitting it and all of them can use special moves to either run faster, knock their opponents out of the way while running or having their ball have a special effect when landing as to push the other balls out of the way. | |

One chapter of Ghost Sweeper Mikami had Reiko dueling a spirit in a golf match on a course with impossible terrain, with both players using psychic powers to control the ball. Amusingly, the match is won by Okinu, who had never played golf before, and was playing the game normally, mainly because subtracting her absurdly high handicap from her absurdly high score put her one point below the enemy's score. | |

An inverted second type happened on Entourage when Ari played a round of golf against a studio head, wagering Vince's role in one of the studio's movies. The exec was coached by Phil Mickelson and it looked like Ari had no chance of winning. It all came down to the final putt which Ari missed. The miracle came when the exec began yelling at Ari, had a heart attack, and dropped dead. A stroke of luck, indeed. | |

In the Stargate SG-1 episode "Window of Opportunity," Jack and Teal'c wind up trapped in a "Groundhog Day" Loop, and in order to alleviate the monotony they engage in a variety of antics, including playing golf through the 'gate. Hammond interrupts to ask what he's doing, to which everyone's favorite Deadpan Snarker retorts: "In the middle of my backswing?" Also, Jack drives a ball into the gate and asks Teal'c how far away the dialed planet is from their current location. Teal'c responds that it is "Several billion miles,"note Untrue: the closest star to Earth (apart from our Sun) is somewhere around 25 trillion miles away. to which Jack remarks "That's gotta be a record." |

The Flintstones: Happened in the episode "The Golf Champion". At the 18th hole, Fred Flintstone begins by ricocheting the golf ball off several trees and rocks and into a water hazard, atop a dinosaur's head. The second shot overshoots the hole and rolls into the mouth of a sleeping dinosaur. Flintstone goes inside the dinosaur's mouth to finally shoot the ball in the hole, and win the tournament. | |

Lost, of all things, has featured a number of golf games, due to Hurley's finding clubs in the luggage and building a course. One match saw the Losties betting on whether Jack would sink a putt, without showing the resolution. Another had Kate urging Jack to take a penalty when he hit it into the stream (again, no resolution, as they were interrupted by Mr. Eko carrying a bloody and unconscious Sawyer.) One of the mobisodes centered on Jin missing a putt and throwing a tantrum about how nothing is going his way and how alone he is. | |

Dan Vs.: "Dan vs. Golf", unsurprisingly, culminates in Dan trying to win a golf game against Chris.

In the Disney cartoon How to Play Golf, Goofy takes "play where it lies" too far and ends up shooting the ball off the nose of a sleeping bull. What follows is one of the zaniest chase scenes ever, with Goofy running for his life while keeping the ball in play. At one point he misses the ball and runs back to hit it, narrowly avoiding being trampled by the bull. | |

An Archie Comics story has the guys turning the entire town of Riverdale into a huge Golf Course, setting various landmarks as their holes. One hole only — Archie, Reggie, and Jughead played one hole from one end of town to the other, starting in a public park, and ending in Dilton Doiley's rain hat, hanging on a hook in his workshop. Par is in the mid 200s. One Sabrina the Teenage Witch story has Sabrina caddying for the Head Witch Enchantra. And this game is really bizarre, taking place in the Other Realm, with both players using magic. Sabrina helps by zapping up a set of spell-resistant modern golf wear for Enchantra. |

Miniature golf doesn't get much more improbable and bizarre than in Futurama: Into The Wild Green Yonder. First of all Leo Wong builds the universe's largest miniature golf course, and plays golf on it. Then Amy Wong, pro-golfer, plays it with the Planet Express ship, while being chased by Zapp Brannigan on the Nimbus. It should be noted that the course in question is "mini" in name only - in that it isn't a "professional" course. The ball is easily 50' in diameter, the "club" is a canon, the ball return is a black hole, and the entire course covers a full arm of the Milky Way galaxy. | |

Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, Episode 4: The Bogey Man involves a golf game occurring through the middle of town because it was built on top of the Golf Course. Out of both mercy and arrogance, Wallace's opponent changes the rules after the sixteenth hole so that that whoever is first to finish the last two holes in either order is the winner. Play goes through the sewers, through buildings, and at one point involves a squirrel. Success even involves using a legendary grip which sends the ball straight up and mailing the ball across town, respectively. | |

Nothing strange actually happens to the shot (it's a pretty accurate drive), but Lt. Commander Dodge opening Down Periscope by teeing off from the deck of his submarine as it comes into port, complete with the crew rattling off a firing solution as though it were a torpedo, must surely qualify as bizarre and improbable. For added awesome, he damn near scores a Hole-in-one, which prompts his Commanding Officer to chime in on the shot. |

B.C. had its fun with golf. Characters have actually been known to make golf swings while hanging by their feet from a tree branch. For a bonus, there's Bizarre And Improbable cheating when Clumsy Carp balances a submerged golf ball on his nose and raises it out of the water for a friend to hit, in exchange for a share of the winnings. Another time, B.C. (or possibly Thor) somehow wound up, after his swing, with the ball balanced on the head of his club. Consulting the massive rule book, Peter found a rule that "covers it explicitly," and told the unlucky fellow they had to shoot him. | |

Homestar Runner has Sweet Puttin' Cakes, a mini-golf course based on the incredibly trippy show Strong Bad invented. It exists in its own universe that can only be accessed by talking about mini-golf, the first hole is home to a talking worm, and the 18th hole has a par of infinity. | |

The Three Stooges short Three Little Beers, which is the natural consequence of letting the Stooges onto a golf course. The reason why their game is so bizarre is evident from the start; none of the Stooges know how to play golf, and Hilarity Ensues as their antics wreak havoc on the course and their fellow players. | |

An episode of Hey Arnold! featured this on the eighteenth hole of a round of golf designed to settle a fender-bender between Grandpa Phil and Big Bob Pataki. Phil is forced to play a ball from a diner's quiche, and Arnold needs to make up a rhyme so that he can hit it. Found here. | |

Badass of the Week once featured an article on the rules of Battle Golf: a game played by 4 incredibly drunk people. Each 2-man team attempts to get their ball into the hole while preventing the other team from doing so with BB pistols, butter knives and other weapons. | |

In Men in Black: The Series, K's hobby is taking a bucket of balls to his "personal driving range" — a rooftop in midtown Manhattan. | |

One update for Terraria introduces the Golfer NPC, who specializes in selling golf-related items, meaning that yes, it's possible to make your very own crazy golf course, with feats like putting the ball into a hole at the bottom of a Hellevator. | |

I Dream of Jeannie, "Watch the Birdie", featured a golf game where the ball did lots of bizarre and improbable things, but that was because of Jeannie's magic. Among other unlikely shots, Captain Nelson hit the ball from the branches of a tree and shot it in the hole after it had landed in a water fountain. | |

A chapter in Kochikame when Ryotsu rigs the game allowing his team (using a remote control ball) to win including helping his boss Ohara. The last stroke, Ryotsu has to play fair and square and surprisingly, like Dale Gribble's quote above, a crow took the ball and dropped it in the hole. Each subsequent win, there's a large party hosted. | |
