Thank God. I gotta respond to this. This reminded me. Up until last year I had not heard of the game corn hole. So it’s time for the annual company picnic. The boss asks me if I was going. I told her I did not know. She says, “Oh, come on. We are going to have food, we have paddleboats, and we are going to corn hole. “Say what!”. “Norm, corn hole! We are going to play corn hole”. I could not believe what I was hearing. Later I found out that it was a game but to this day I still cannot believe that anyone would name a game Corn Hole. Then I am watching the Corn Hole world championships on TV. They even rank the Corn Hole guys like they do golfers. Number one in the world Corn Holer. But to add to this the sponsor for this league is Johnsonville Sausages. I cannot believe this! How does anyone not see what this is? I thought until now that I was the only one who saw this irony but now I see this cartoon. There is someone else out there.

It originated in Germany where they threw dried corn through a hole.

I’m thinking BS on this one. If that’s true, why isn’t it in German?

This is what you get when someone from Germany immigrates to Iowa.

Not trying to be a Butthead or anything.

if someone reading this doesn't know.....if you looked at the cartoon, that is the cornhole board, or tatget....there are two of them across from one another. and you toss "beanbags" and try to get them in the hole.....originally the bags had CORN in them...not beans.

Here is a explaination of the origin of its name.
