John, can’t believe how big this “sport” has become. It looks like your community put on a super job hosting a fun activity…thanks for sharing the good time. Another quick fact, did you know 🦴 Bones’ nickname at one time was CornHole…thank goodness it was dropped after HS🐳

Rhetorical question: Which is better, horseshoes or corn hole?

That’s a tough one. I think it depends on the person. I like cornhole because the bean bags are lighter and yo don’t have to have a special “pit” for the stake.

John, I’m sure you and the Producer took part in this event. Such an easy game. No practice necessary. No skill either. Just throw a bean bag across the lawn toward a hole in a box. I don’t mean any offense, on the contrary. Fun for any age or skill. I’d bet even BT would be able to figure it out after a while.
Have fun !!!

the snack, corn nuts, might want to consider renaming themselves corn hole nuts!
