There are many different interpretations on how the game of cornhole was started. Some believe that a German farmer perfected the game in the back of his barn after seeing some kids throwing rocks into a hole. Other believe that an Irish farmer invented the game to pass the time with his friends.
What we do know is that the first documented version of cornhole popped up in Ohio. It became a popular following and traveled accross the state to many different tailgating parties, getting picked up by travelers from other states. Now this game is popular across the world and picking up rapidly with all age groups.
