My grandpappy told me that they used white and brown corncobs back then . . . they'd use the brown corncobs first and then use the white corncobs to see if they needed to use the brown corncobs. True story.
That's part of the reason that the beanbag tossing game is called "Cornhole." That's what they called the hole in the outhouse . . . the cornhole.
Of course, for us it's a noun, but in Jerry Sandusky's cell block it's a verb. (Get it?)
