Playing Horseshoes
« on: September 06, 2015, 10:57:52 am »
In my town, we are having a two day horseshoes tournament event.  Do you like to play or do you only like to watch or both. Very good exercise.

I enjoy playing horseshoes at parties. it is a great drinking game. sometimes when the other team gets 2 ringers in a row, we have to do a shot. it can pretty fun fast.

Aww, memories...My Dad used to love playing horseshoes in our backyard. We'd hear...clink, clank, ping, almost everyday in the summer. I miss him. :( :heart:

Funny, because I was thinking the same thing as I read through this post.  My parents had a horsehoe pit back behind their house when I was very young.  I remember the clank sounds when we would have summer gatherings.  The pit was removed before I was old enough to toss them myself, but played on occasion at other locations.  We lost my dad earlier this year, and while horseshoes isn't the first thing that comes to mind when I think of HIM, HE is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of horseshoes...

My condolences. I lost my father in June this year. :heart:

We have a cheap plastic set up that we always take with us when we go to the park. It's fun to use and it's great practice!

We had a horseshoe pit when I was a kid. Played at cooks out and such. A lot of fun. I remember getting a few ringers!

I don't think I've played horseshoes since I was a little kid. We had colorful plastic horseshoes instead of metal ones.

We used to play horseshoes quite often but not very often now.  My husband is disabled with a bad back and can't throw horseshoes without causing himself pain.
Have a wonderful day!
