Hilarious, I wonder if they have Wii Bags? And Maggie – we think alike. The problem is that bags is best played in a back yard in Hoffman Estates. Not on the sidewalk behind Gingerman. I am going to start playing Horshoes on teh sidewalk. Just hammer in a couple metal sticks and start throwing them shoes!!!!

Bro,

West Loop is Wrigley grown up. They both start with W’s right? Why can’t everyone just get a Wii and take it inside?

Hmmmm?

There is a guy I work with who is HUGE into bean bagging. He keeps saying the technical name for it (which is "corn holing") and I cant get past the 5th grader in me that snickers. Here is THE official website. I want to get one of the t-shirts.http://www.playcornhole.org/

… and they’re really freakin’ expensive. Truly. $150 -$300 for a set of two pieces of raked plywood with three holes drilled in each, six beanbags and some paint.

I could have made that in Woods Class!!

Yet there they are at every tailgate and concert parking lot.

American bocce.

Us urban-dwellers have missed out.

We (?) urban-dwellers?

Fuck it. Somebody hand me a beanbag and a wine cooler.

Not necessarily in that order.

Dude! About a month ago, I had to walk over to a neighbor’s at midnight to ask when the bean bag championships would be winding down. Party-talking/laughing in the backyard? Totally cool. Thwap!!!/Thud!!!/Thwap!!! of bean bags on wooden things for 3 hours? Really, really annoying. (the guy was really nice and wound it down – yay neighbor!)

Do people buy those wooden things or make them? I am a sheltered city kid, we had Bozo Buckets and horseshoes at home, complicated wooden box contraptions were for the parish carnival.
