Sports & Saloons: A Win-Win for Everyone
Playing cornhole in the backyard with friends and family is fun, but many people in the greater Cincinnati area have found that playing cornhole at one of their favorite taverns is even better. Read More
Five Tricks to Outwit the Opposite Sex
Whenever I get together with friends to play cornhole we split into guys vs. girls. The inherent competition and the associated prowess for the gender that wins are obvious, but the subtle manipulations that take place between the sexes are less so. In a game such as cornhole, where sheer brute force does not equal superiority, these under-the-radar machinations become the deciding factor. Therefore, it is in each gender's best interest to examine the devices of the other. Here is a glimpse. Read More
A Campus Culture
Everyone has that friend: the eternally adaptable figure that can adjust to fit seamlessly into any atmosphere imaginable. You know, that person that can float effortlessly from an impromptu run-in with distinguished university alumni to a high-energy game against the school’s biggest rival to giving a speech at a local charity event without appearing the least bit fazed. She's the person that everybody loves because he or she is so completely a part of every situation. Read More
National Cornhole Day Recognized in Carrollton, Kentucky

Dangers in the Field
Lawn games are meant for large groups of family and friends, and of the options: bocce, horseshoes or lawn darts, cornhole is by far the safest. Players don't wield two pound, hard resin balls, or throw metal objects at five to 10 miles per hour, or fling twelve-inch long needles into the air. Instead, a one-pound bag of corn is tossed onto an inclined board. However, in spite of the seemingly harmless nature of the game, certain dangers do lurk in the field. Read More
On Alcohol and Performance
“Alcohol is the anesthesia by which we endure the operation of life.” I like to think that Shaw would have been a cornhole player. He certainly had the right idea about alcohol, and I believe, would have found a beautiful pairing of it with our lawn game. Cornhole offers the rare opportunity to imbibe while playing a sport. Of course such can be done while bowling or shooting darts, but cornhole presents a unique characteristic the others do not--relaxation. Read More
The Three Phases of Cornhole
“Potential means you haven’t done anything yet.”
Strong words from NFL hall of fame coach Bill Parcells. It applied to his football players. I believe the words can be applied to today’s cornhole players. The ones who want to reach beyond their potential are the ones who choose to compete against pro level players in the ultimate cornhole competition, a year long quest for the crown called the King of Cornhole.
Then you have Gary. Read More
Digital Get Down
Yes, that is the title of an NSYNC song. Yes, it relates to Cornhole. Your favorite backyard game has now gone digital. In today’s age – an “instant access” world where we are used to having the highest forms of technology at our fingertips and a library’s volume of information readily-available – we almost expect that we should be entertained at all times. From movies, to music, to video games, we are so used to being occupied twenty-four hours a day that when we don’t have something to do, the jitters start to set in. Read More
Cornhole's Roots
The game of Horseshoes can trace its origins back to ancient civilization. Roman soldiers and peasants each played a variation of tossing metal objects around stakes pounded into the ground. The game was played widely throughout Europe and morphed into its current state. It then spread throughout America via early English settlers. Cornhole cannot trace its roots back to the Romans. Cornhole cannot definitively be traced to settlers. The only absolutes about our lawn game is that the first documented emergence occurred in Cincinnati and that the name is derived from the bags.

One Game at a Time
Author’s Note: Names and specific identifying details have been changed to protect the privacy of those concerned.
I work for a homeless outreach coalition, in the same Appalachian town I’ve spent most of my life. In many ways it’s an unremarkable place—the college kids annoy the ‘native’ residents, while the natives themselves try to balance the beam between shunning the college kids and courting their business into locally-owned stores; and the median income is just enough to have one new car sitting in the driveway, or two used ones. But in many ways ours is a unique city: we’re at a geographic midpoint between two of the largest illegal drug distribution centers in America; and a democratic electorate, fed up at a staggering rise in crime because of this fact, recently elected its first republican mayor in many, many years.

Hole in Hollywood
It’s official. Cornhole has slowly migrated to the west coast. And each year, new folks are falling in love with the sport. In the seven and a half years I’ve lived in Los Angeles, I have seen it go from strange looks as I played Cornhole with my friends in my front yard, to seeing it being played on Venice Beach with a crowd of onlookers. A tiny part of me likes to think I was responsible for this…but then I remember that I’m not the only one who infected the nation with the popular sport. It took a great many of us. Read More

The Cornhole Difference
In Canada, mentioning cornhole in a crowded room generally results in a slew of blank stares being tossed my way followed by dead silence. This is short-lived, of course, because the predictable chorus of laughter always ensues. The challenging part is convincing family and friends that it isn’t some kind of farmer’s joke, but a legitimate and entertaining game that trumps others of its class. Read More

Athens County Fair
So your setting at the Athens County fair, waiting on the dudes who are suppose to be running the tourney to show up. It’s posted that it starts at 7pm. Check your watch it’s 7:05. No Boards, no bags, no dudes still. Three or four teams have already walked off grumbling and talking to themselves, and there’s 11 or 12 more standing there looking about as confused as you are on what’s going on exactly. The director agrees to try the dudes again one last time from his cell. No answer. And he doesn’t look too concerned himself. Read More

New Boards and Bags, Good Times
I recently got some Tournament Series cornhole boards and bags from the American Cornhole Organization. Yes, I have some connections. And lately, cornhole has been very popular in the streets of the Hurst/Euless/Bedford area in Texas. So far, mind you, it's just been my father-in-law and I playing, but that's not the point (and I did exaggerate a bit). What's been appealing is the camaraderie, the appeal of the shiny new boards, and knowing that life isn't all the bad when playing cornhole. Read More
"B"lind Draw "A"ttendan"C"e
The A B C 's of Corn Hole
When I first began throwing every Thursday at Buns, like most any weekly gathering of holers, we always had a great time and usually played a blind draw to keep things fair. Attendance never seemed to grow much, little spikes here and there, but it was great to see our friends and catch up on what happened that week and throw some bags. Sometimes the topic would land on why we didn’t have more people showing up since we played at a local restaurant-carry out and anyone was welcome, and we would all like to see a bigger figure in the money pot, as well as get more folks to come out to help the owner since he let us gather at his place each week...

The problem is, when you are throwing against the world's best, you have nowhere to go but down. Read More

"It was either that or give up. I just had to apply myself," said Mike Deal of Fairborn.
Deal said that he tried to get his first patent when he was nine years old for a remote-controlled camera.
"I couldn't get the funding for a patent, though. No one would give a 9-year-old the funding for a patent," said Deal, laughing.
Deal's latest patent idea, however, went through: he is the inventor of Cosmic Cornhole, a black-light, clear set for cornhole, a popular - at least in the Midwest - outdoor bean bag toss game. Read More
