Sixty-four teams will compete in the 4th annual Cornhole Cup on Saturday at American Tobacco – sponsored by Capitol’s sports stations, 99.9 The Fan & 620 The Buzz.
Cornhole is a popular tailgating game. It’s a very serious version of a bean bag toss.
And consider its historicity per Wikipedia: scholars confirm that a game of very similar nature was played amongst Native Americans in Midwest America, who filled pigs' bladders with dried beans and competitively tossed them for entertainment, notably, the Blackhawk tribe in Illinois.
Proceeds from the Cornhole Cup will go to the American Cancer Society’s Prostate Cancer Research Division.
The bags start flyin’ at 10am Saturday in the ATC courtyard. Come for Cornhole, and stay for lunch in one of the ATC restaurants.
