For those of you who were wondering, the 'Great Cornholio' that Mike Judge used for Beavis's alter-ego is actually from this game. 'Great Cornholio' refers to someone who gets 4 out of 4 in the hole in one inning. It's also known as a 'four-bagger'., True story!
Hello! I've been watching your videos lately, and the way you explain it is very easy to understand yet very entertaining. I hope you can make a video about Arnis (also called Eskrima/Kali). I'm from the Philippines, and it is a traditional sport here. Yes, it has a lot of variants, but with your approach, it can open the minds of foreigners who are new in hearing this sport. If you can do it, I highly appreciate it. If you can't for some reason, I'll understand. Much love from a Filipino viewer!
Wow, I was just going to joke about the Great Cornholio, and then I scrolled down and read this. But that doesn't seem to explain why he needs tp for his bunghole
I love that this sport got on ESPN. My ultimate hope for the game of (competitive) cornhole is that it reaches the same level of support as pro darts in the UK. Unlikely but you never know!
@@NinhLyUK Clarification: I just meant that my hope is for the popularity of pro Cornhole in America to eventually be analogous to the popularity of pro darts in the UK. No offense to cornhole players and supporters across the pond, though.
Grew up playing this game every summer at BBQs and tailgates, never thought it would be a pro sport one day. My favorite part of the game is when you get to 18, 19, 20 points and you have to strategize ever throw to not go over 21 while accounting for the opponents bags.
I appreciate the competitive drive of the Americans and even to make Cornhole, a tailgate activity to a competitive match up. Can't wait for competitive buffalo folding table smashing. Nice work Ninh as always!
Since quarantine started here in WA state, I bought some bags and boards and have been playing this with my family and by myself, pretty much non-stop. Thanks for the rules video! I had all the rules correct except for when you receive no points for a bag that bounces from the ground and onto the board. I always thought those throws counted, but nope! I further read that of that happens, then the players should clear the board of those bags before continuing.
These guys clearly don't know how to play. You need to hold a beer in your other hand for balance. Both teams must have an alcohol content of at least 0.08% to be able to play this game properly. Any lower and the inevitable argument about what counts as "on the board" may not end in violence.
You're missing something ... the really drunk chick in a bikini that can't land a bag anywhere near the board and neither can anyone else because they're too distracted looking at the drunk chick. Fun times.
I've got a unique "sport" you should do. Tractor Pulling! There are no videos that explain how a tractor/truck pull works, so its something you should do!
I guess this is where Mike Judge got his inspiration to name Beavis’ alter-ego as The Great Cornholio. Edit: and 30 seconds after I post, I see those Cornhole tables.
Believe it or not, that's exactly where Mike Judge got the name from. 'Great Cornholio' refers to someone who gets 4 out of 4 in the hole in one inning.
I never heard of this one before! Speaking of precision sports, are you planning doing a Shooting Sport one ? (Pistol 10m, Pistol 25m rapid fire, Rifle 50m, Rifle prone position, Rifle 3 positions, Skeet, Trap, Double Trap etc...). I'd love to see a video on this sport!
Hi Ninh. Love your vids. Sorry I may have missed here how does scoring work for bags which are deflected in by the next shot? e.g. opponents shot or your own next shot. Do they turn into 3pts or do they remain 1pts? What constitutes in the hole? Through the hole and touching the ground, 50% through? What if there is a pile of bags under the board stopping the bags from dropping?
To answer your questions: 1) If it was in the count, and then knocked in the hole - that one point turns into three points. You don't score 1+3. The easiest way to count it is to work out all the scores at the end rather than during the throws ... which is exactly what I mentioned in the video. 2) The bag has to physically fall through the hole. If there is a pile of bags that may hinder bags falling in, either player can ask for a rake - and the bags underneath are flattened to the floor. Thanks.
This is a rather curious one, and also not very hard to set up at home casually. One thing I have been wondering: what happens when a shot pushes an opponent's bag into the hole? how does scoring work then?
LOL, at 1:48, that's exactly what I thought when I first got the notification! I need teepee for my bunghole! Is it at Lake Titicaca? [insert other relevant quotes here]
Hey brother! You got that right! It's almost completely unknown outside the US. First time I played it was in your home city of Vegas - I wasn't very good at it. Dude people make a living out of this now, so if you ever get sick of travelling - be a pro cornhole player!
@@AnthonyMerryman Ah, I didn't think you would?! An Akiya home, I've heard of that ... don't they just give it to you because they're abandoned? Career? I'm guessing being a professional Geisha is out of the question?
@@NinhLyUK Ah yes, so the deal with these abandoned homes is because much of the youth has left to work in the large cities where the jobs are. The elderly pass, and no one is around to keep the smaller towns alive and thriving. The stipulation is that you must live in this home and contribute to help grow the community. Actually, come to think of it, you should do a video on this.
America’s *real* pastime We call it ‘bags’ in Wisconsin. Also almost everyone plays to exactly 21 here and if you go over, you reset your score to 11. A lot of people make their own boards and bags too. Usually play while tailgating in the parking lot before a baseball or football game.
@@NinhLyUK We called it bean bags in my family in Wisconsin. I've played with different groups of people and it seems like everyone has a different set of rules. It seems like the rules aren't as standardized yet as this video suggests.
Ninh Ly You and your teammate throw a frisbee at a cylinder with a slit in it. If it hits the cylinder, you get a point. If it lands inside the cylinder through the top, you get three points. If it lands inside through the slit, your team wins. Your teammate is allowed to slap the frisbee in order for it to hit or land inside of the cylinder. The first team to 21 wins, but going over 21 points means your score is reset back to 15 and the opposing team can have a shot at redemption if you win.
What happens if a player knocks one or more of his opponents corn sacks into the hole? Does the opponent get the additional points or do they just retain 1 point for landing the sack on the board before hand?
Cornhole question: does “underhand” mean you have to swing your arm to the right of your right leg (as a righty) or are you allowed to swing it to the left of your right leg (like a disc golf putt)?
I don't think it ever happens, but if it does - I assume they're allowed to replace the ruptured bag. It's a cool sport, but it's not really known outside the US.
The sport originated in the Jeffersonville Indiana or Cincinnati Ohio area. We called that the trip state area. Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky area. Probably by borey 🌽 farmers.

I like the concept of scoring exact and if you go over it resets your points. I always played where you reset minus 10 points so you go back to 11

What Tone K said.
My friend has miniature tabletop version of this and you place the mini bags on a small catapult you launch with your thumb
Cool, that sounds like fun!
I never knew they had professional cornhole...
P.S still waiting on that "Cycle-ball" video lol. I really wanna see that.
Neither did I.
You might be waiting a while.
I want that Cornhole board at 1:48.
I think everyone does!
Plz make a video about pétanque
If I get enough demand, sure.
When you stand at front of board can your throwing motion go across imaginary line or must it stay behind it?
Here because there are eight or nine people in my apartment complex who have formed an unofficial cornhole club during the summer and fall.
In team play, are there any rules concerning teammate position (left or right)on either end. What decides starting position in singles matches.

I've known about most of the rules of cornhole before I watched this, but do you think Kanjam is based on this game?

Ninh Ly You and your teammate throw a frisbee at a cylinder with a slit in it. If it hits the cylinder, you get a point. If it lands inside the cylinder through the top, you get three points. If it lands inside through the slit, your team wins. Your teammate is allowed to slap the frisbee in order for it to hit or land inside of the cylinder. The first team to 21 wins, but going over 21 points means your score is reset back to 15 and the opposing team can have a shot at redemption if you win.
Ah, then yes - it does sound like Kanjam is based from this game as the rules are almost identical.
The most unfortunate name for a sport ever.
What do you do?
I’m a professional cornholer.
Yes, that is unfortunate.
Cornhole: So many jokes. SOOOOOOO many jokes. And the game includes the term "woodie". A lot to unpack there.
Yes indeed.
“I got a woody while playing cornhole.”
So do a lot of guys apparently.
What happens if a player knocks one or more of his opponents corn sacks into the hole? Does the opponent get the additional points or do they just retain 1 point for landing the sack on the board before hand?
They get the additional points. It's up to you to put your own bags in the cornhole and prevent the opponent scoring.
Where have the rules of sports videos gone ninh we want more!
I'm still making them.
Ninh Ly great news! I'll be looking forward to them :)
Ah. This I often see at fairs and carnivals etc. In London. I would always bang it out and thrash everyone!
I've gotta be honest, I don't really like the look of this sport. I may just like for the sake of liking.
Fair enough, it's not everyone's cup of tea. That said, i can see the appeal.
Could you do any esport game?
Not really my bag, but I'll consider it.
Do you remember my idea for a rules of biathlon video?
I'll consider it, though I think you're the only one that's asked for it so far.
@@NinhLyUK ok that's fair, no need to do extra work on my account.
So in the pros, What if both people want to stand on the same of the board?
Nice
Thanks bro.
There's me across the pond thinking cornhole as a noun meant bumhole and as a verb meant getting beefed up the arse. Thankf for posting.
It can be depending on where you're from. And thanks!
Cornhole question: does “underhand” mean you have to swing your arm to the right of your right leg (as a righty) or are you allowed to swing it to the left of your right leg (like a disc golf putt)?
So long as it's not overhead, I think either is acceptable.
do one on these:
Biathlon
Sport fishing
Timbersports
Okay then ... th-cam.com/video/TVuJFCAS5Eo/w-d-xo.html
How far are the boards supposed to be apart?
Would you consider doing the rules of Dodgeball
If I get enough demand, yeah.
So how is scoring if the bag is just "hanging" in/around the hole? Still just 1pt?
Yes
What is distance between boards?
Does a deflect hole score?
It certainly does!
I’m supposed to be playing in a cornhole tournament on the 5th
2017 championship of bags
Yes.
It's called washers where I'm from and we play with 5 in washers. Just like the bags but with metal washers
Huh, wow. I've never heard of that one.
Btw sir can you tell me what is the prize money in this tournament?
I'm not sure?
If you leave you're bag hanging on the lip and your opponent throw theirs and knocks both his and yours in does it count as 2 scores ?
Yes, you score three, but so does your opponent.
Ahh ok thank you 😁
Finally a casual sport that a lazy person like me can play
Absolutely. Just need beers and wings and you're all set.
1st time I ever seen a college football game and didnt know what it was
Yeah it's common at football tailgate parties.
Am I mistaken, or doesn't knocking your opponent's beanbag into the hole score them 3 points?
Yes, deflecting any of your opponents bags into the hole scores them the points.
You gotta be careful.
its a 6" hole 9" to center from top of the board.
I have never heard of this sport before,
But amazing though and what would happen if the bag tears in rare circumstances?
I don't think it ever happens, but if it does - I assume they're allowed to replace the ruptured bag.
It's a cool sport, but it's not really known outside the US.

Those Cornhole bags = Emergency pillow!
I don't think they're big enough?
I'm the goat at this
I think you should be on the TV doing this.
What is the distance between the two boards?
27 feet, I think. From edge to edge.
