Ya know, I live in Indy, so midwest; I’ve never heard of cornhole as a game. Well, the fruits in SanFran might consider it a game.

Leave it to the Buckeyes.

They call it bags in other states, so I hear. Bags doesn’t sound any better to me!

I was thinking about this game after reading the thread last night.

The black light is clever. I’m sure the cornhole is circled with a fluorescent ring that glows in the dark.

I was wondering about a strobe light cornhole game. You know how repetitive movements look so cool under a strobe.

Also group games would be very interesting. One guy is “it” and everyone else has a cornhole. Blindfold the guy who is “it” and everyone else position themselves around the room with their cornholes facing “it”. Then the player who is “it” tries to go through one of the cornholes. When he gets close he would hear his sack smacking the area around the cornhole. When he went through someone’s cornhole, that player would be required to let out a whoop. The guy who is “it” would try to tell whose cornhole he got based on the whoop and based on the sounds of the sack hitting the area around the player’s cornhole.

If he identifies the owner of the cornhole he continues to be it. If he misidentifies the cornhole’s owner he has to be the one with the cornhole and the other player becomes it.

Variations of the game: the players with the cornholes squeal like a pig when their cornhole is penetrated, or the squawk like a hen.

"... I believe the term “cornhole” originated from the use of corn cobs as toilet paper... ..."

I hope you are correct; I always thought the etymology pertained to the fact that corn is oftentimes visible in stool.
