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

You're right, I think they should ban children, diesel engined vehicles, gas powered golf cars, and dogs. Oh, and let's not forget those noisy squirrels, the thump thump of nuts falling from trees is very irritating. Running water makes a horrendous noise at times, ever been to Niagara Falls? There should be a law!

But if I had the power the first thing I would ban is cranky people. :)

At the Cincinnati Jimmy Buffett concert tailgate party on Aug. 6, it seemed like every other RV setup had the Bean Bag Toss game.

People at a concert aren't looking for peace and quiet. They're not there to enjoy nature. ;) No amount of noise would be out of place there.

They are noise-makers when you are parked along side someone with a
beanbag game. The constant thump-thump-thump is very annoying.

Unfortunately, bean-baggers are like some dog owners who camp with dogs that never stop barking. Or those who must play music so loud you can't hear yourself think. The noise doesn't bother them so they feel anyone annoyed by the noise is a crank. There are open areas away from other campers where they can take their boards and bags and make all the noise they want. For some reason they don't feel that others deserve that consideration.

You shouldn't expect other campers not to play a game during the day so you can nap. There is a quiet time at most campgrounds in the evening for sleeping. No Ban for Cornhole!!!!!

Any irritating noise should be banned at CGs. It has nothing to do with quiet times or taking a nap. It has to do with some people playing this game for many hours a day. Most people are bothered by repetitious noise that goes on for hours. Think Chinese-water-drip-torture. Most of us are there to relax and hear the sounds of nature and have conversations with others, not to hear the constant thudding of bags hitting boards. Having the whap, whap, whap noise of corn-hole go on for hours is very inconsiderate of other campers. Just as inconsiderate as allowing dogs to bark all day or blaring music all day just because it's not "quiet time." Why not play noisy games like corn-hole at home in your own back yard? Or walk away from the other campers and play it in a nearby area?

I was just wondering if anyone brings this type of game to a campsite with them. I plan on just bringing one of the two boards with me next week.

The constant whap, whap, whap of this game can be very annoying to nearby campers. Almost as annoying as barking dogs. If you like to play it may I suggest you take the board and bags some distance from the other rigs and tents.

Here is a unique set.

Here are some equipped with lights:
