Summer Fun with Cornhole-Adventures with a Bean Bag

As you stood there all those years ago, an innocent first grader winging the bean bag across the gym floor, who would have guessed just how critical that early training would become.

Who would have known that one day the stakes would be far higher than just a simple grade card. A beer, or maybe an entire six-pack is on the line now. This is the big-time.

The beauty of cornhole is that anybody, or everybody can play. Young or old, weak or strong, drunk or sober-even the klutziest amoungst us can give the bean bag a fling.

The game will require the bean bags, the boards, open space to set up, and refreshments. Of these requirements, the refreshments are the most crucial for establishing a "tone" of play.

A family game requires bottled water and Sierra Mist in a cooler. A college game requires a keg, and it's generally not root beer.
