Miami golf course squatter evicted after 40 years A man who had lived on a public golf course for 40 years lost his home after some golfers complained to the course manager, saying his presence doesn't look good and that he scares them. But other golfers say Kenny Bethel, 55, is harmless and that he should be allowed to stay. He first came upon the golf course as a young runaway from home in 1963. He collected and resold stray golf balls, used the showers and toilets at night, and slept in a sheltered area on the course that housed the showers at Palmetto Golf Course. 'This course became my job and, later, my home,' he said. For the last nine years, he had been joined by his wife Francis, 43. 'This has been my home for over 40 years,' Bethel said. 'What have I done to deserve this?' Bethel now gets chased away by the staff when he tries to collect balls. And they lock the restrooms at night.
