The great cornhole game
The cornhole game is believed to have stared in the 14th century in Germany. A century ago, it was rediscovered n Kentucky. The game involves a platform with a hole in the middle and corn bags.
The first player that reaches 21 points is the winner. Players stand 30 feet apart, near their platforms. Throwing a bag through the hole is worth three points. When a bag lands on the platform, a player gets only one point.
There are other names for the cornhole game. These names include: Corn Toss, Bean Toss, Soft Horseshoes, Indiana Horseshoes, and Bag Toss. Cornhole resembles the game of horseshoes but it doesn?t requite metal spikes and horseshoes that can be dangerous if they hit someone. Soft corn bags and platforms are all that is necessary. Therefore the game is very family friendly and can be played just about anywhere at anytime.
Cornhole is easy to bring anywhere and anyone can play it. Since the corn bags are light, instead of heavy like horseshoes, throwing them is easy. All ages can enjoy playing the cornhole game.
No matter the place, time, or skill level, cornhole is always fun. It?s very similar to the game of horseshoes but it requires less physical exertion and it?s much safer to play. Cornhole is a great activity that can be played with just two people or many people in a tournament setting.
