SHR and my Cousin, The Cute One.

For those of you who have played this, what do you call this game?  Just curious.  If you choose to answer, could you tell me what part of the country you’re in?  Thanks :)

    I am not entirely sure if this is what you are talking about but we played a similar looking game called corn hole bean bag toss. Why corn hole? I have no idea. But basically they were bean bags and we tried to get them through through the hole.

    Oh and west coast but parents are mid-westeners and my older siblings were born and raised in the south.

    We call it Corn Hole, but a friend of mine is arguing that… Glad to know we’re not the only one :)

    Corn Hole, the corn in the bags and the hole in the board. Corn Hole. Got that from my brother in law from Ohio.

    Cornhole here as well. I know some of the ND college kids have another name for it but I couldn’t tell you what it is. Oh and I’m in Northern Indiana, right by the ND campus.

    It’s cornhole. I grew up in Toledo and now live in Tennessee. It has always been called cornhole in both places.

    Well since we are next door neighbors.. yep we call it ‘Corn Hole’ as well here in Western PA.
    I still laugh every time I hear the word or hear the mention of the game.
    I never knew the game even existed until I think last year? or two years ago?

    Definitely bean bag toss. I’ve never heard it called corn hole, though I find that much funnier for some reason.

    And I’m from Texas.

    Corn hole- Louisiana, Texas Arkansas all use that term.

    It’s TOTALLY corn hole. And I’m from TX/VA :D

  11. On July 03, 2009 Trauma Junkie says:

    Wait, whattt?

    I’ve lived in TX my whole life and never heard it called corn hole…

    Am I supposed to believe I’ve lived a sheltered life? Lol

    They are called “Quoits”, pronounced kwaits. I live in the Slate Belt of PA, about 30 mi NE of Allentown and 75 mi due west of NYC.

    If you win do you get to say, “I am Cornholio! I need TP for my bung hole!”

    Because that would be plenty of incentive for me to cheat, you know.
