Ha... ha... yep... got a board here at the house.

Funny story... worked with a youngster years ago at a dealership turning wrenches. One day I inquired of him whether him and his wife would like to accompany me down to a festival that was going on in a small Central Texas town. One of the events was a cornhole competition... told him he would enjoy it immensely and to wear something comfortable. He looked at me... his eyes as big as saucers and says “ I don’t know what you country boys do for fun around these parts but I’m not interested in any cornholing”. Realizing he was clueless, I say “Come on man, you just gotta hit the hole three times in a row” at which point (and I didn’t think this was possible) his eyes got even bigger. He politely refused my offer while I continued to pester him the next two hours about what a good time he would have and I’d hate for him and his wife to miss out on all the fun.

You just can’t show some people a good time... I suppose. To this day, it still cracks me up when it crosses my mind.

It would’ve been fun to be in on the conversation that led to the naming of this pastime.
