    Laid up with bronchitis and flipped on ESPN and there are professional corn hole players. They have jerseys peppered with sponsor logos like bass fisherman! Lots of baked beans and beer logos…
    Thought maybe I spiked a fever.

    They’re pretty darn good though!

    My 15 year old kid had never played before. Last year we had a graduation party and bag toss. That kid beat every person that challenged him. I bet he went 50-0. Consistently put atleast 3 in the hole every turn.
    I’m thinking i should get him a cool shirt.

    It might be the off-season sport for curlers.

    The marketing department should have thought a bit harder when they came up with the name corn hole.

    “thick human” jester just tell people you’re built for comfort not speed!

    I’m not a fan of the name corn hole, it’s bags at our place.

    I watched the collegiate national championship a few years back. Yes, it’s a college sport. A cornhole tourney sponsored by Johnsonville Sausage Company. shock Listening to the announcers, it was non-stop sexual innuendos. yay

    Axe-throwing is now televised, also. I think with major sports getting shut down due to Covid, they had to find something. Maybe a few of these got just enough ratings to stick around? That and they have like 12 different ESPNs, FS1, NBC Sports, etc. At some point you run out of content.

    I was looking for my issue of Obscure Sports Quarterly to see what else they might add to the programing.
