CORNHOLE GAMES

Do you want the real history of Cornhole?

Let’s give props here to the early German settlers to Cincinatti (or Porkapolis, a nick name for the greater Cincinnati area) as they brought this fun outdoor board/bag toss game to America.

The earliest record of "cornhole" comes from the northern part of Bavaria in Germany from a popular carpenter and renowned cabinet maker by the name of Matthias Kuepermann way back in the year 1325.

The story goes that Mr Kuepermann was out taking a daily stroll down one of his farm fields of corn when he came upon a small group of young boys tossing stones back and forth into a hole that was created by a ground hog.

It seems the boys were keeping score... and so was Mr Kuepermann. As they say, the rest is history!
