Diesel Cornhole

I got a set of custom Cornhole boards made for my wife and I. My favorite color is orange, and I like ".." Diesels My wife's favorite color is green, and she likes turtles. Knowing that, it seemed like the perfect themes for our Cornhole boards. They turned out awesome! We will be enjoying them with family this Christmas......Rich

Careful. Those MB lawyers will be all up in your case.... Use of the logo without permission, etc. etc. etc. Cease and desist! Great job, by the way!

Trust me, from coast to coast of America I've heard it plenty and never associated with any game....

It could be called Bean Bag toss. The reason it is called Cornhole is because the bags are filled with corn, and they are thrown on the board with a hole.

I'm glad I'm not the only one expecting to find something extremely off topic when opening this thread! I've only ever heard ONE definition for "cornhole" and it certainly applied to no game!

I expected this to be a report on buying parts at the dealership. As I clicked to read about it I panicked at the thought it might be a pictorial.
