Default Cornhole, a great midwest game

In Ohio, we play a game called cornhole that is great! Bad name but fun game. Check these sites out for more info: http://www.cornholegame.org/ and http://www.whetstoneproducts.com/ when you're ready to start playing! Also when you're in Cincinnati, (why the hell would you come to Cincinnati) check out Skyline Chili, Montgomery Inn Barbeque Ribs and a Cincinnati Reds game at the Great American Ballpark!

The game.

This is an unfortunate name.

Can we even for a moment think these folks come to learn more about the tourney standing of a bean bag game?

Ha! I am not often a skeptic. But this time i am.

Its understandable to be skeptical, but there was a tournament at the US Bank Arena (this is where our minor league hockey team plays) and 372 teams showed up to play. It's crazy how popular the game is. A lot of people call it something else, like corn toss, softshoes, bean bag game, etc.

That game is popular around Chicago too..but it's not called cornhole. Me and most of the people I know play a game called washers. Similiar concept only using metal washers and a different thing to throw them at.

Yeah, I thing people in Illinois call the game bean bag game. I've also seen that washers game but I've never actually played it before.

I don't think you were the only one that thought that, lol. Weird name for game, that's for sure.
