365 Things to do in Portland #143: Mondo Croquet 13th Annual World Championships & Mad Hatter Picnic.
If the idea of bashing bowling balls with a sledgehammer (while dressed in your best interpretation of the Mad Hatter) appeals to to you, than you’ll love the Mondo Croquet 13th Annual World Championships & Mad Hatter Picnic, happening today at high noon @ the Park Blocks located in front of Powell’s Technical books, between The Pearl District and Old Town. Be sure to bring your own sledge hammer and a bowling ball if you can find one (Goodwill always has a few). For more information and some pictures check out mondocroquet.com. This was one of Willamette Weeks picks for ‘Best of Portland’ in 2004.
