Who knew when I wrote about playing with my friend’s Cornhole (game!) a month ago, that article would quickly become one of our most popular?
So, I decided to find out everything I could about this FUN game…
And, after playing it myself for the first time just weeks ago, I have to admit… while I had terrible aim, no power, and barely scored any points, it was a heck of a way to pass the time!
Look Who’s Playing Cornhole…
This backyard game of yesteryear is making a HUGE comeback these days. In fact, Cornhole is becoming the trendy new bean bag game in the U.S.!
Practically every week, I hear of another person touting the praises of Cornhole, like Dierks Bently (of Country Music fame — “What Was I Thinkin?”, “Lot of Leavin’ Left to Do”), who says it’s his band’s favorite thing to do between gigs!
In Illinois (and plenty of other places I’m sure), they even have what they call Bag Bars where they play this bean bag toss game religiously… over beer! Now, THAT’s my kind of bar game!
Play Cornhole Online
- There’s even an online version of Cornhole so you can play the game at your computer.
- Here’s another online Cornhole game, but it’s not nearly as challenging as the game above.
One thing’s for sure:
I’m much better online than in real life.
