Top Bars For Cornhole In South Florida

Cornhole is a popular drinking game and there are even exclusive cornhole leagues in many states where people play recreationally. The game is a necessary one at tailgate parties before football games and the cornhole can be decorated with any team logo or artistic piece to identify with its owner (similar to a domino table). Beer pong is a legendary game, but cornhole goes along with it, and these five locations give the novice or the pro in South Florida a chance to try out their skills at the same time they are at a happy hour or enjoying a night out with friends.
