What to do for entertainment?

leevis2 · Posted: May 14 2008 Post subject: What to do for entertainment?

What doe everbody here do for entertaining their guests when having a cook-out(other that adult beverages and music). I just got a ladder golf set that people love to play. Trying to think of some more ideas to keep guests busy between the time they arrive and eat, and after eating. Ya can only talk so much Laughing

Ladder golf is fun, but bean bags (Cornhole is what some people call it) is probably the best game for cook outs, drinking, having fun with friends. Google Cornhole building instructions and many sites should come up to show you how to build it, very fun, I've built 4 sets for different friends/family members/myself.

I was actually just looking at that, how funny is that! Seems easy enought to buld, and you can do it while still holding your beer!

I personally like blindfolded lawn darts. Each team puts their hoop in front of them, then blindfolded you chunk lawn darts at each other. Last team standing wins. Laughing

Ditto on the horse shoes.

For short term excitement you can do what I did this weekend. Put a grease filled drip tray from the smoker on the gas grill to get it out of the way. Forgot all about Embarassed

lit the grill for some dogs and burgers - needless to say there was quite a "large" flame. Fortunately, it burnt off quickly without any incident, just a little embarrassment.

We like to play a Hold'em tournament when we can. It usually lasts quite a while and after folks get eliminated they get a little side game going on. Of course we just play for jelly-beans. Wink

Mostly we just sit around and talk.

Around here we do washer boards, I made this set for my son-in-laws brother for a wedding present.

Its a great game when there is a crowd.

Isn't there suppose to be carpet on the washer boards? I've played washers quite a bit and I've always played on sets that look exactly like yours but some carpet is attached to the top, usually an outdoor carpet or very inexpensive thin carpet. That's the way we play it at least.
