Anyone Bring The Bean Bag Toss Game (Corn Hole) To Camp?

Someone should have thought about this...

My understanding is that the original game was created by farmers that had a little free time. They took a piece of burlap bag and put a handful of corn in it. They then competed throwing the "corn bag" through a hole in a board. Thus the name of the game "Corn in the Hole", shortened to "Corn Hole". The official and correct corn bags still use corn, most commercial bags use plastic pellets instead of corn.

Someone should have thought about this. It's like naming your child Richard Harry...

Yep, we always take it with us. At our camping club outings it is very popular and people stand in line to play.

I read your old post here but no picture. Can you post one? :C

I'll try, these pictures don't show the boards up close. It's just some shots of the gang cornhole-ing!

OH NO:S... Now I understand.. I didn,t quite play it that way..:E Now I understand why people were running away from me..:W:W

Does that cornhole game require a "pitcher" and "catcher"?

Very cool. :C
