Everything You Want To Know About Playing Cornhole: The Best Backyard Game Ever!

Look Who's Playing Cornhole...

This backyard game of yesteryear is making a HUGE comeback these days. In fact, Cornhole is becoming the trendy new bean bag game in the U.S.!

Practically every week, I hear of another person touting the praises of Cornhole, like Dierks Bently (of Country Music fame -- "What Was I Thinkin?", "Lot of Leavin' Left to Do"), who says it's his band's favorite thing to do between gigs!

In Illinois (and plenty of other places I'm sure), they even have what they call Bag Bars where they play this bean bag toss game religiously... over beer! Now, THAT's my kind of bar game!
