A game based on cornholing AHEM THE NONSEXUAL TAILGATING PASTIME is a perfect fit STOP LAUGHING for the Wii. Not surprisingly, I like the Vegas/poker variation mentioned.
OK, one last joke: Vegas cornhole poker. Come on, that’s awesome.
This actually reminded me of other games that would probably work well, such as Skeeball and other arcade/midway, non-video games. Anything like that out there?
Yeah, Cornhole is very popular in Cincinnati. When I first moved here, my wife and I were driving around and we passed a bar that had the sign “CORNHOLE AND $1 BEER NIGHT”
Haha! I’ve actually seen variations of that on several bar marquees around town and always make the same joke.
While cornhole is a big midwestern thing, it seems doubly popular in Cincinnati. You can’t attend a company picnic or back yard BBQ without an impromtu cornhole tournament being organized. I admit, at first I was skeptical, it’s basically horseshoes with beanbags, but after playing a couple of times I was a believer. It’s so much fun that my wife actually bought me a set for Christmas a couple of years ago, not the cheap plastic kind, but the big wooden boxes with our college logos painted on them (Miami for her, UC for me).
Plus, way safer than Lawn Darts! (and still playable while moderately inebriated)
