Maybe you should just send a check and not attend the "cornhole tournament" but if you do go, I highly recommend staying seated the entire time!

LOL! If you follow the links you'll find there is an American Cornhole Organization:

Official Cornhole Rules - Sport of Cornhole - ACO

I don't get it...

Rav, can you explain the apparent joke to me?

 

[Ravi]

Let's just say I signed manifold up for their mailing list.

I looked it up too, thinking it must be an old slang term some old timer doesn't realize the new slang of the generation or something...

Looks like in the game of cornhole you can actually score a dirtbag!

5.6 Cornhole Scoring Designations

* Cornholes – A bag-in-the-hole (or Cornhole or Holer) is a bag thrown through the hole in the board. A bag can be pushed in by other bags from either player.
1 Cornhole = 3 points.
* Woody or Boarder – A bag that is not in-the-hole but lands with any portion resting on the board.
It may not touch the ground before landing on the board. If it does, it's called a "DIRTY" and must be removed from the playing surface before another bag is tossed. A bag hanging on the board surface but touching the ground as well is also a "DIRTY" and has no point value and should be removed from playing surface before play continues.
1 Woody or Boarder = 1 point.
* Stanker or Foul Bag – A bag which is not a Cornhole or Woody, or a bag which was delivered in
non-compliance with one of the rules of the game. It has no point value, scores as a
"DEAD BAGGER" and is to be removed from the board surface before any more bags are pitched.
Bags knocked into foul territory by a foul bag should be returned as closely as possible to their
original position. This also applies to bags that are knocked into the hole by a foul bag.
1 Stanker or Foul Bag = 0 points.

this game is pure comedy gold. i may go to this tourney just to hear the play-by-play

"well, it looks like a woody, ah, there's a cornhole!"

 

[Ravi]

Take pics if you do.

 

[Paulie]

Haha..

"a stanker"

That's what these kids need. A good dirty, followed by a woody and maybe even a stanker.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

HaHa...yeah "cornhole" is the name they give for what used to be called "bean bag horseshoes".
I have seen some hilarious advertisements for corn hole tournaments.
Such as "Hurry and fill out the enclosed registration...don't miss your chance to be the champion corn-hole team!"

 

[Sheldon]

I didn't realize I've played this before until I looked it up on youtube. We didn't call it cornhole though. It's called bag toss.

Fun to do while drinking.

 

[xotoxi]

what exactly is a *traditional cornhole tournament*?

Before I follow all of the links to find out the answer, I would like to take a guess xotoxi-style.

A traditional cornhole tournament is a contest to see who can shove the greatest number of corn cobs into their rectum.

The winner is given the title "Grand Cornhole".

Am I right?

 

[Big Black Dog]

I'm not interested in playing any game that requires you to put something in a cornhole... Not sober, anyway.
