Z71_Denali Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Football is in season, so i was looking online for a good quality American made Cornhole game set for when we have football parties every weekend at our new house. what i found was a company out of Florida that custom makes them with whatever design you want! i tossed around the idea of making them myself, but if you haven't noticed by my activity level on here, i just don't have the time. the company is called Victory Tailgate and they appear to be very well built: here's what i'm doing: and i'm having them put Texas A&M logos on the boards and their all-weather bags. they make the boards in the regulation 2'x4' size, but i opted for their 2'x3' "tailgate size" and special carrying case so i can store it properly when not in use. the neat thing is they clear coat their painted ones so maybe i'll get to 'detail them'! coat my opponents board with some MSS, BG, and Americana and watch them boggle why their bags keep flinging off i'll report back once i get them in if anyone shows interest!

camaro2ssblack Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 You could barely walk at the UT vs Florida game this weekend because everyone brought their cornhole boards.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I have a set of HAWKEYE CH boards in my garage right now in anticipation of our block party. Flippy cup and beer pong are two others we play at tailgating parties... Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I have a set of these with the UConn logos on them. However they seemed to get up and leave my storage shed just like the rest of the basketball team! Not sure if they are made by the same people but they look like they are from the pics you put up.

Team Adam's Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 This has not caught on around CA yet... you see them occasionally, but more often than not we drag out the beer pong table when we tailgate an Angels game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Don't worry it will. When I used to fly from CA to CT to visit my cousin in the mid to late 90's they were all playing Beirut (beer pong) and I was hooked. It didn't catch on back in CA until a while later. So I'm sure you'll be seeing a lot more of this game soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBlack151 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Our beer pong tables always seem to be arched up in the middle and move like MAD! What kind of table is it? I see a lot of the thin 1/2 inch wood ones doing this. We always by a 4' by 8' 1 inch sheet and paint them ourselves. They've held up for years now. I've painted about 4 of them for myself and friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z71_Denali Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 we used to have a beer pong table like that in college. it was a cheap chinese made one that didn't last very long. i wonder what the ones are like this company sells. i think the whole beer pong fad has run its course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAYBEN Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 nice.. I'll have to take a look.. I wonder how the pricing is.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z71_Denali Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 nice.. I'll have to take a look.. I wonder how the pricing is.. $90 for an unfinished set. that includes the bags too. i have a friend that made his own washer board set and he said it cost him about $75 in supplies plus about 3 hours of his time to put together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAYBEN Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 not bad.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z71_Denali Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 Alright so I got my boards and bags in Friday and I couldn't be happier! The quality is great! In fact they contacted me the week before because the shipping dept of all people found an imperfection and they redid them from scratch! I tell ya I didn't mind the extra few days of waiting, these came out better than I expected! Can't beat American made quality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z71_Denali Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 reviving this ol' thread for spring! the boards have held up well, we used them a lot through our mild winter. only complaint i have was the finish was to slick and the bags slide off the boards easily. i've been meaning to get a clear non-skid spray for them.

We always bring the beer pong table with us! As for that cornhole game, its a LOT of fun. My father made a set for m. Also made a ring toss game too. Its a 36" X 36" box with a 6inch PVC pipe in the center. Good times, and makes a great drinking game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
