Cornhole is a classic outdoor game that blends simple rules with endless fun, making it a favorite at tailgates, picnics, and backyard gatherings. Cornhole has evolved from a beloved backyard pastime into a professional sport with a passionate following.

The American Cornhole League (ACL) has played a pivotal role in this transformation, organizing high-stakes events and establishing standardized rules that elevate the game to a professional level.

In our backyard, there are professional cornhole tournaments with those very same passionate fans. We wanted to hear more about the game in #backyardburlington, so we talked to long time cornhole enthusiast Kevin Mays!
