Parking lot game

Post by phansheridan »

I see some people playing a game in the parking lot where they essentially stand on a platform with three holes in it and throw washers into another similar platform, can anyone tell me the name of this game and the basic rules so I do not look like an idiot tomorrow in Mansfield
Both shows at Greatwoods in June
Seattle and Vegas in October

Girlfriend doesn't realize that shes going to be a parrothead by the end of this summer whether she likes it or not.

Just so you know, its much more fun to build your own than use someone elses. Mine are 18'' wide, 36 inches long, three holes of 3'' diameter, evenly spaced across the 36'' length. 2x4's for the based and at least 1/4'' plywood. The hardest thing to get are the actual washers. Grainger is where I found mine. Generally home depot and lowes don't carry washers that big. The washers are supposed to be 2.5'' in diameter with a 1'' diameter center hole.

Washers.org is a decent resource.

They've got more than enough options for buying pre-made stuff here: http://www.bombatwashers.com/index.html Some of the washers are pretty cool.

For Monkeyboy, it conjures up ugly flashbacks and more visits to the therapist
