First winner in Walt's true stories &c contest

We haven't had a lot of response to our invitation to submit true (and funny!) stories, photos etc, but an assiduous reader in Niagara Falls gets a photo of Le Patriote for this one, which appeared today in the online edition of the Niagara Falls Review.


I am waiting now for someone to ask: What's so funny about that? Who are these Cornholers of which they speak? What is this game that they play? There is, after all, an American Cornhole Association. You can look it up.

Weeellllll... maybe I'm getting old, or my country-boy roots are showing, but there is another, older meaning of "cornhole". You can look that up too, in a good dictionary of American English slang. 

One hopes the members of the ACA are playing a different sport. But still I wonder... Hasn't anyone told them about that other thing?! Really??!!
