Speaking of redneck (kind of)...do you know what cornhole is?

goodheartedmommy

The game? Just curious. 

summerbrideDC

um. No.

I don't know WHY I know, but I do. It's the bean bag toss game. I've always just called it the "bean bag toss" game.

Yes . Dh made his own.

It sounds dirty in a sexual way.

I don't know what it is though.

Yes, but we just call it bags. I made a set for DH for Father's Day last year. Well, I painted a set that my dad made :-)

No, but someone on my FB friends list is making a cornhole for someone. Every freaking time he posts about it, I giggle like a 12 year old 'cause it sounds dirty. lol

My neighbor's have it, embossed with their college.  He is a patent attorney and lives in a $800K house.  I guess he is a red neck, since he also drives an old truck and likes to do wood work.  It is pretty fun at parties.  We played croquet at our last party though (on the 4th).

Just read this last week.  As of a week ago, by official proclamation of the state legislature, it is the Offical Game of KY. 

Now THAT really sounds dirty.

Thanks for the laugh 4speedy. Man, I'm so proud.

Sure do. We have one. DH built in college. Pretty much all the frats had them. We bring it to tailgates and to BBQ's

I don't think they are redneck

We call it bags, I'd never heard it called cornhole before, but I don't think it's redneck.  It's fun!

Indianans call it cornhole, so yes, I know what it is.  AND, you have to make awesome ones that represent your college/university.  Generally that would be Purdue University or Indiana University.

Let me rephrase that for you " Generally that would be Purdue University (If you're awesome) or Indiana University (if you weren't cool enough to get into Purdue).

Mine are Brewers, though. Around here, its either UW, Brewers or Packers. They are standard at tailgates.

Same thing here in VA. And, college colors MUST be represented!

True story.  And I will add that if you are a Purdue grad you say to your kids - if you go to IU I will disown you.  But if you're an IU grad, you're proud if your kid gets into Purdue (or at least I would imagine so as it's a much better school...).

This is funny, but my law degree is from IU, and obviously Purdue does not have a law school.  Jokingly my husband and I said we will NOT hang that diploma with the Purdue ones (our undergrad ones and his masters).  It goes in a drawer.  Hidden from sight.

Also, my parents have the best sign ever - it says "Boilermakers Welcome!  Hoosiers: By Appointment"  ha!

We have one, and it's got our college colors on it...we play it in the backyard and at tailgates.

TheNextWest

Yep! Everybody here has them for tailgating and cookouts, etc. My brother's are painted for the Titans and my dad made H some with the Air Force symbol on them. I'm kind of a champ
