Any Corn Holers Out There?

[SavannahSixManFan]

Switched jobs here in Savannah in March and third day one of the guys asked if I played Corn Hole. I sort of backed up to a wall and said no. He laughed and said, no not that, we play here in the back room. Corn Hole is sort of like the Bean Bag Toss from years ago. Seems now you toss corn filled canvas bags onto a board with a hole in the middle of it. It used to be a northern game, but NASCAR got ahold of it and it seems to have gone mainstream, at least here in the SouthEast. Ya'll play this in Texas?

It is very popular in Illinoisy, though they still call it beanbags or just bags now.

I played that at Church carnivals when I was a kid.

Most play washers in Texas that I'm aware of, everyonce in awhile you will see someone playing redneck golf.

Do they play banjo music while the game is going on?

How appropriate that a such named game become popular in an area kown for the filming of Deliverance on the Chatooga river, whose waters eventually join the Savanna and flow right through your neck of the woods. Many of the younger readers have probably never seen the movie. Tell me, do the players squeal when they score? Supprised Goob ain't jumped on this like the duck on th junebug.

Thanks for your restraint SmokeyJoe...
I do have a six-string banjitar, five-string banjo, four-string banjo and a three-string cigar box guitar... along with a six-string and twelve-string acoustic guitars...
#51 I remember washers...

Great. Now I can't get "Dueling Banjo's" or the picture of the hollow stare of that kid sitting on the bridge out of my head.
So, savvy, have you started playing this game yet?

Do you know the definition of a gentleman?

Someone who knows how to play the banjo, but chooses not to.

We were vacationing with some cousins who have a condo in Gulf Shores a couple of years ago. They said, "Let's go play cornhole on the beach."
I said O.K. but won't the sand be a little irritating? They failed to see the humor in that.

How could they miss the humor in that?

Man my post count is getting low. I've been slacking more than usual.

Cousins & "O.K." are a bit disturbing to me.
