Originally saw this in a campground last year in Southern Missouri. Built ourselves a hole and bought some bags online. Have been playing some now that spring is here. Anybody else like to play? Seems to go well with beer.

You can find links here to buy the boards, bags and other equipment but the board was easy to construct.

This can't go anywhere good...I have never heard beanbag toss called this EVER!

We call it cornhole around here too. I havent heard it ever called anything else. But little did I know that asking Karaya a few years back when he was in town if he wanted to play cornhole would turn into a a giant joke about me wanting to go play "cornhole" with Jay behind the shed :eek:

We should lobby to get it into the olympics.

Very popular around here among the student population. I originally heard it called cornhole, but most people give you the :huh look when you call it that, it is primarily known simply as "bags".

"Down south"? WTF does that mean? Just because some Texan found out about some game that started in YANKEE land OHIO!!! According to the website listed DOES NOT MEAN IT IS A SOUTHERN THING!!!!
Besides only a YANKEE game would be called CORNHOLE or BAGS even! I tell ya nothing good can come of this thread!

we had cornhole games goin in dayton last summer, seemed to be great fun for many! i tried to play but once again, my gunnery is horrible :)

Hmmm? Why in the world would "they" (whoever) choose this name? Possibly they were counting on the " :O WHAT?" reaction?
Have to admit, it does get attention, for whatever reason ppl have in their minds...
I think it's funny, for the obvious reason..

We call it cornhole up here. Lots of fun, but I still prefer throwing shoes.

I bought the Bago version of Cornhole a few years ago, we bring it camping each year and have a huge tournament with others that bring the game with them as well...... yes, beer goes well with this game.

I've heard it called both here. Bags is more popular that Cornhole, though.

It’s always been called corn hole here in NW Ohio. Probably because most of the bags are filled with corn. Feedcorn usually. Our set originally had bags filled with unpopped popcorn… But one was ripped open to make snacks.
If you doubt the popularity of the name, just type “Cornhole” in ebay and hit search. Almost 4000 results.

Is it any wonder that so many English words and phrases have so many different meanings, some not even close to what might be expected?
