Disney Gives Life to Lewis Carroll’s Croquet Match

Posted by: Sports Balls in Croquet, Rules June 16, 2015 0 21,758 Views

In 1951, Disney adapted Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland into a movie by the same name. A naïve girl named Alice falls down a rabbit hole into a whole new world, characterized by bizarre creatures, talking animals, and even stranger customs. One such tradition is the Queen of Heart’s game of croquet, with flamingos for mallots, human cards for hoops, and live hedgehogs for balls.

See how the Queen’s competitive nature displays itself in the film:
