[SlitheryDee]

I can only think of one thing those would be good for. Ok, I can think of two things but one of them isn't good.

How high did you make the back? Are the logos stickers or paint?

Edit- did you make or buy bags?

the decals are vinyl prints -- exactly like nascar decals. they are layered.. not just stickers. color goes through the entire layer then the next color is put on top--etc..

i was going to make the bags but i found it much easier just to buy the bags pre-made..

i got dual color bags to match the colors for each school. they are duck cloth and fill with corn feed.

my paint skills are not very good thats why i didnt paint any boarder or anything. i went really simple this time around.

i belive the board is 4 inches in the front 12 inches in the back. -- i have to check the specs.. everything is aco regulations..

if you are interested cornolia.com makes great vinyldecals and the bags are from bestcornbags.com

for the poly i put 4 layers on--sanded with a 400 grit -- then put another coat on.. smooth as glass right now

lol funny story:

we had a patient who was telling us about a fundraiser event that's going down this weekend and he's like, "you can bring your kids... there's lots of things for them to do." my boss said, "yeah? like what?" the patient says, "there's gonna be facepainting and cornholing!"

my boss's face looked exactly like

... at that point, i couldn't hold it in anymore... i about fell on the floor laughing. i had tears rolling down my face and i couldn't breathe. everyone else in the office started busting up, too.

yup

Cornhole a.k.a "tailgate toss," "bean bag toss," "baggo," "dbags," or "bags" is a lawn game in which players take turns pitching cornhole bags—cotton duck bags filled with feed corn—at a raised platform with a hole in the far end. These platforms are usually made with plywood or occasionally plastic, and are often decorated. A corn bag in the hole scores 3 points, while one on the platform scores 1 point. Play continues until a player reaches the score of 21.

Haven't played it much myself, but it's fun. Will probably make my own boards this summer.

my cousin has an ASU set that he made, pretty cool. i get bored with the game tho.

 

[BoberFett]

I recently learned that Illinois calls it cornholing. The rest of the world calls it bags.

its not something to play all the time.. its a perfect casual game for backyard bbqs and tailgates.
