Huh. I had no idea what Cornhole actually was. It sounds very funny. So it’s similar to throwing horseshoes at a stake? I guess as horses became phased out, excess horseshoes probably became rarer.
At friend adult gatherings I’ve been to, darts (the non-lawn variety) and drinking games have been popular. Cricket for an all ages gathering.
Then there’s back home in China. Majiang, madiao, fight the landlord (a card game), liar’s dice. Good stuff.
It’s a very midwest north America thing. Classic game of get drunk and throw things into a hole. You can play this with really anything. Spent cobs into a bucket, rocks into a hole, basketballs into a basketball hoop, t-shirt into the toilet of an aircraft carrier. Highly recommend ball hole.
Yeah it is similar to horseshoes but you don’t need a dedicated pit. The advantage it offers is that you don’t have to worry about cards or dice getting lost in the yard since it can get incredibly windy here. Pretty much everyone here in the Midwest either has a Cornhole set or has someone in their immediate social circle who does.
am*rica is not a real place
Cornhole is an excellent summer picnic/bbq game. What do you play at friend and family gatherings in your country?

Scratches the same itch as beer pong. Got it

Okay but what does it mean when I see a character threaten to cornhole another character in American movies? (rhetorical)
From context I guess I already know. But that’s the only meaning of cornhole many of us from beyond your great walls are aware of.
TP for my bunghole
