Game Regulations: Click here for official rules

Regulation sized playing boards will be placed 27′ apart from each other by a US99.5 representative. Play consists of two teams of two with one player from each team standing on opposite ends. Each team has 4 bags of one color, and all 8 bags begin at one end. To start, one team will be randomly selected to go first. A player from the first team tosses the first bag from anywhere behind the front of the board. Play continues by alternating tosses between the 2 opponent players until all 8 bags have been tossed. The winning team of each round tosses first in the next round. Contestants will not be allowed any practice or warm-up tosses prior to their turn. Stand-ins or proxies shall not be permitted for any contestant.

Scoring:

1. A bag that lands on the board, a “cow pie” is worth 1 point.

2. A bag in the hole, a “cornhole,” is worth 3 points.

3. Points cancel out (ex: if team one has 3 bags on the board and team two has 2 bags on the board, then team one nets 1 point)

4. The winning team of each round tosses first in the next round.

5. Any bags touching the ground or that hit the ground and bounce/roll onto the board do not count and should be removed from the board before the next toss.

6. The first team to 11 points or more wins, as long as they win by 2 or more points. If the teams are within one point of each other, play continues until one team wins by 2 or more points.
