I blame OSU for the spread of this. Or else God, who decided to make cornhole a popular family game for cookouts and Barolo Colon a fantastic pitcher for the Angels.
Finally, a pub tournament I can actually win!
Yeah, I had the impression that cornhole qua "cornhole" was an Ohio thing.
No doubt w-lfs-n will now pop up to tell me what is wrong with this use of "qua" in conjunction with quotation marks.
2: The potential for confusion, and ensuing hijinx, is immeasurable.
Surely there have been comedy sketches on this. Scenario: the leathermen to show up to the frat bar, only to discover that some brothers like both games.
I mixed up "quas" in parsing rfts's Ohio reference: I grew up there, and haven't heard the word used euphemistically since those days.
I recover more memories here than by any other mechanism in my life, ever.
Also, my comment turns out to have been almost a direct plagiarism of FL's title. Wonderful. This is how my brain is operating today: it is not operating.
5: I'm most reminded of the Kids in the Hall sketch about aliens admitting to themselves that after decades of abducting and probing humans all they've really learned is that 10% seem to enjoy it.
I'm reminded of the brilliance of Arrested Development.
"Everybody's cornholing except Buster!"
Maybe they can play it off as a game about Sanctuary (Faulkner).
This game sounds unbelievably unfun, aside from the name.
So the midwest gets about one chance to start a trend every hundred years or so and the best they can come up with is a mashup of horseshoe pitching and buggery jokes? Lame, lame, lame. At least in California they use gerbils.
I've played that game a bunch, at fairs and the like, and as I remember it had the catchy name "bean bag toss".
"Cornhole" is much better. We have to reclaim some of these slurs, everyone.
Believe it or not, there's a cornholing tournament at our county's Relay for Life this weekend and it made the front page of our Ohio hometown newspaper. It will be "double elimination, but if you get eliminated you may pay $25 to get back into the tournament." Some locals are saying the price is right and others that it's just too much exposure for a very public charity event. Nyuck nyuck!

Sorry, I didn't know it was happening over and over again----it was quadruple elimination or something like that!
That's always the way with cornholing. You think things are done, and then they keep happening over and over again.
Two of the guys I work with said they're partnering up but there may be another opening later on in the evening. I'm taking my camera.

Okay now you're just messing with us.
Just some innuendo on the guys' part---the tourney is for real.
