Red Rover, lol, the last and only time I heard of that being played by kids over 8 or so was when a fraternity at my university got flagged for hazing their pledges in a “bonding activity”" which involved Red Rover. The brothers would have some of their bigger, tougher members form the line and then called out the pledges, but first the pledges had to chug a beer or do a funnel before rushing the line. Predictably, some pledges were singled out by having to funnel more beer and some got a fist to the breadbasket or knee to the package when they hit the line. Certain “preferred” pledges got by unscathed while others got banged up and puked a lot as they were half in the bag. Nimrods did this in the backyard of their house so other fraternities next door witnessed the action and one guy wrote for the college paper….. No wonder the Greek system is on life support on our college campuses.
They could have had the entire CFL season, including playoffs, for under $10,000,000. But they had to have the Upper Middle New Hampshire Cornhole championships instead. And of course the Mid-West Idaho Buffalo Chip Toss championships.

I knew when I first saw cornhole on ESPN that it was only a matter of time before we got ESPN 8: The Ocho.

There are about a dozen Canadian based sports channels. Got to fill up that time somehow. How many in the States?

The way I learned it as a kid, instead of “Can Gronk come over?!”, it would be, “Send Gronk right over!”
