Corny Stuff

Last weekend I had a chance to attend the Berea Spoonbreat Festival. A Corn Hole Tournament was being held as part of the festival. I did not have any idea what a Corn Hole Tournament was. The corn part comes from the four pound, 6" X 6" bags of corn seeds (pretty much like a bean bag). The boards are 2' X 4' in size and have several 6" diameter holes in them. The boards (decorated by the teams in various themes) are placed 27 feet apart. There are many other rules as to scoring, fouls, and team elimination. I believe the man in the light blue T shirt below is a official/judge of the tournament. Maybe something new for the corn maze??
A couple of other corny items - I just couldn't resist buying the carmel corn in the shape of a corn cob. Very funny and did not taste to bad either - purchased at a gas station.

    The corn hole game must be popular down here in the South. I saw one for the very first time down here in Knoxville, TN. It was painted white with a big orange "T" for the University of Tennessee, of course!!
