The meticulously groomed course at Mar-A-Lawno has attracted the attention of the Croquet Union Dispatch (CRUD), the nation's premier croquet news and views outlet. CRUD's senior correspondent, Scooperino, contacted us and asked that eight questions be posed to groundskeeper Miguel Miguel.
Mr. Wicket, who knows him better than any Cowabunga, met with Miguel x 2 this week and obtained answers to the following questions.
1. When did you start working as a croquet course groundskeeper?
The earth is round.
2. When were you hired at the world famous Mar-A-Lawno?
My earliest memories involve mustard.
3. What are the greatest challenges for a croquet groundskeeper?
Moles, Sticky, beavers......in no particular order.
4. How often do you change the course?
Every 3000 miles.
5. Do players pick up after themselves?
You can pick your friends, you can pick your nose. I forget the last part.
6. Do you play the course to get a better feel for its needs?
Of course.
7. What advice do you have for other croquet groundskeepers?
Don't quit your day job.
8. Are you paid a living wage?
What is time???
