A Memphis miniature golf center fell into chaos when 300 to 400 teenagers began destroying the site after problems with some of the complex’s gaming machines.
The video filmed by a person who was at the Putt-Putt Amusement Center said the problems suddenly arose after some of the game consoles began to swallow money with staff apparently unable to offer quick refunds.
It immediately resulted in riot scenes when a teenage girl grabbed a plexiglass screen from the counter and threw it at the staff behind it.
Between 300 and 400 teens who were at a Memphis miniature golf complex ended up freaking out after staff rejected refunds for a faulty game machine.

A woman who had been to the complex previously noted that there had been a problem with the machines, but did not seek to justify the behavior captured in the video.
The same teenager grabbed a metal holder and threw it on the desk again.
The shocking behavior triggered a stampede that led to even more destruction with a person firing fireworks inside.
Terrified staff could be seen moving out of the way as other teens copied the egregious behavior.
Police officers answered the call after the parents of the teens had left the property.
Police say witnesses who saw the girl throwing objects at staff members were frustrated after they were unable to get a refund when some of the gaming machines at Golf and Games Family Park appeared to be defective and continued to take the people’s money without giving them credit for playing time.
Moments later, the young woman was seen spitting on another worker according to CountOn2.
When the police arrived, he received a juvenile summons for disorderly conduct.
Then the girl was seen to spit at staff who were still standing behind the counter.
Tatianna Lak, who posted the video online, wrote: “ Something must be wrong with their machines today because when they credited our attraction card for 5 attractions that the money was not charged, HOWEVER they were very understanding and still allowed us to get various attractions. times.’
The mini-golf center released a statement on its Facebook page on Sunday afternoon written by the center’s general manager, Aaron Boss.
‘Unfortunately, last night we had an incident that we have never experienced in 57 years of business. Parents chose to leave large groups of teens in our facilities without parental supervision. Some of those people chose to create a disturbance like we had never seen before. We are very grateful that none of our Golf or Games family or clients have been injured in this situation.
The girl grabbed a metal rope holder and threw it at the employees.
“We are actively working with the authorities to identify those involved and hold them accountable for their actions. In the future, all minors must be accompanied by their parents or guardians while at Golf and Games. Anyone left unattended will be asked to leave.
‘We are and have always tried to be the locally owned place for family entertainment for almost six decades. And we will always welcome those who choose to share their family experiences with us. We look forward to serving you soon.’
Incredibly, the workers were unhurt when they managed to dodge the projectiles. The complex has now said that all minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian
