It's actually a game gaining National Attention. Was on the local news in Tampa tonight.

Cornhole (http://www.enquirer.com/editions/2002/07/14/spt_worlds_best-kept.html)



This rule section makes the game seem more...... destined for success?


But it's very important to point out that beer is often a Cornhole staple, partly because of the game's social atmosphere and partly because players get nervous when their non-tossing hands are empty. When an errant toss nearly toppled Boomie's beer, he informed us that knocking over someone's beer is the Cardinal Sin of Cornhole. Jason Schimpf of Delhi later amended the statement, saying the real sin was putting down the beer in the first place.

the worlds Cardinal and Cornhole in the same sentence make the Catholic Church sad.

ummm...we just call this game "bags". I've been playing it since I moved up here. Everyone here plays it.

So, it's like long-distance Toss Across with beer?

its not even that long distance...20 ft or so. there are probably rules for how far apart the boards should be, but they are never observed.

you can also order customized boards...
see http://bagzgame.com/id72.html for example. which reminds me...I should order up some OU logo boards for the next bbq we have out here.

yeah...but here its called bags. dunno why. never asked. its basically just a substitute for darts...and its harder to hurt people with the bags, which means that bar owners prefer it to darts :)
