slo’s FRIDAY 7/7 poll - Cornhole

[slo]

Do you play Cornhole?
If yes…..How would you rate your skill level?
Do you have the boards & bags?
(multiple choice)



For Me…..I do play Cornhole, and I’m mediocre at it. My DD19 though will wipe up the floor with anyone - she is incredibly good at it. My DH made a set of boards, so we play fairly often, and I’ve never beat my DD one time. Once DD19 goes back to college she’ll play in a few tournaments there and either win, or come in second - she really is crazy good.

Good for Katie !!!!

I’ve never played - but recall a similar game from my youth - I wasn’t very good at that - but I’m fairly decent at horseshoes - so no little bags for me to Toss - give me something heavy & dangerous and I’m your team mate !!!

 

[porschegrl]

It's been a long time since I played. I'm assuming I wouldn't be very good at it if I played today.

 

[bobbiwoz]

I’ve only played it once and would do it again. Maybe at HHI later this week.

 

[jo-jo]

I’ve played a couple of times. Picnics and Disney. That’s about it. Dont know rules, don’t know scoring. if I get one in, I win. Might take me 20 throws, but I win.

 

[Meriweather]

Didn't grow up knowing it as cornhole, it was always just bean bag toss.
Played some when young.
DH made a board for the grandkids and I made the bags, but not sure if they use it much.
I'm not good at it and don't really enjoy playing it

 

[Moliphino]

I played fairly often in college and will play at a party or something if it's around. I don't have a set myself.

 

[ronandannette]

I don’t personally have any lawn games but I give them a go when we’re someplace that has them set up. Our company picnic on Tuesday had a beanbag toss thing, horseshoes and dingle-balls (two balls connected by a short rope that you toss and try to land on a horizontal pole). It’s all just for fun - I’ve never known anybody who was “good” at it, especially after a few beers.

 

[RedAngie]

I played a few times when a resort had it in the pool or recreation area.

I had authentic metal lawn darts back in the day. No one ever got stabbed. No need to take them off the market.

 

[soccerdad72]

Yes, we own a set, play all the time. And I’m really good at it.

 

[design_mom]

We do not own the boards. I have played a few times when other people had boards out. It's fun, but I am not very good. (I'm not good at anything that involves aiming at a target, so there's little hope of improvement! Haha.) Our yard-game-of-choice is bocce ball, but I'm not very good at that either.

 

[nw6675]

I'm pretty good. I'm best at the arcade version. Not to brag, but DD has gone home with many a stuffie from the zillion tickets I win.

 

[Kennywood]

To me, Cornhole seems like an adult version of Toss Across:

 

[1420Elexismc]

I like playing...but I have learned over the years that I am much more coordinated with my feet than with my hands

 

[SandyinMonterey]

My husbands brother are really into it. Play often, very competitive and good at it. They bought my husband a cornhole set for his birthday last year. I couldn't believe how expensive it was, $400, but his brother said it was "a good one." We don't play often just by ourselves, with family we will. I'm pretty good at it once I'm warmed up.

 

[Praying Colonel]

We live in a neighborhood with a recreation center and permanent corn hole boards and bags to use for free. We still don't play. I think I've played twice in my life. It's fine but I never really got into it.

 

[disneychrista]

Why is it called cornhole?

 

[soccerdad72]

Why is it called cornhole?

The bags are traditionally filled with popcorn (and, obviously, you're aiming for a hole on the board ).

 

[Dead2009]

I freaking love cornhole, me and one of my cousins usually run the table every time we're partners.

 

[Mysterian]

Heheheheheh
