| For my power T's on my boards, I just went to the flea market, and got large cornhole vinyl stickers that work great. I highly recommend them. |

I am trying FO. CO., my buddy still has them at his house, I have to get them still, and I promise you, the day I get them back I will take a picture and upload them on here.
I am about to start making another Tennessee cornhole set to keep down at the lakehouse in Tennessee and for all tailgating purposes at home games. I am going to do a different design, but haven't thought of one yet. |

I first saw them up at Notre Dame years ago. I assumed it was a yankee thing. I have seen a few at tailgates in Knoxville, but assumed they were being used by transplanted yankees. At least one history gives them a Cincinnati origin, but does say perhaps the foothills of Kentucky.
I guess they have more universal popularity than I assumed. |

| I Like To Play Cornhole But Washers (aka: Warshers, For Some Of Us) Is Harder. Just Really Hard To Dig A Hole And Set Up For Washers Anywhere. Campus Police Don't Like It If You Decide To Dig A Hole In The Keep Off The Grass Area. Cornhole Is Easy To Set Up At A Tailgate Party, Plus There Should Be No Sharp Objects Attached To A Stick When Alcohol (aka: Alkeehol) Is Involved. |

| Horseback? On a serious note, I do have an original set of Jarts lawn darts in excellent condition in my garage. These are the real deal, skull crackers. I can't imagine pulling those things out for a tailgate. |

I cant image what would happen if I was to play with those while drinking. Good thing I dont own a set.  |

Good thing I dont own a set.  | I don't know that I'd want to play with them under any circumstances. I couple of years ago I thought about getting rid of them (for money) and I learned that it is illegal even to sell them used in the U.S. although you can get a tidy sum for a set in parts of Europe. |

Man what a bad invention this game was. Throwing oversized darts out in the open is just crazy. |

| That isn't necessarily a bad thing...
Tennessee boards are the best, but OSU's aren't bad. |
