The date is Aprill 11th at the ballpark in Kimball. Start time hasn't been announced yet but it is usually around 10:00 or 11:00. The two previous years have consisted of 64 and 66 teams. Each team is guaranteed two games and if you happen to be one of the early exit teams, no problem, there are side tournaments always going on as well.
Entry fee per team is $25. There is music, brats, hotdogs, burgers and beer. We pay back around 75% of the entry fees which has turned out to be over $1,000 in each of the previous two years.
PM me with any questions.

One game but it is double elimination. It's a great time. Usually a couple hundred people or better. We have a guy that runs the brackets and the boards so it is very organized, that's a huge plus because it can get confusing when you've got a bracket of 70 or so playing double elim.
I think we usually have about 12 games going on at a time plus the side games on the other 12 sets.

Either or. We usually try to start the tournament between 10:30 and 11:00 so walk ins would need to be there before then to register.

Record turnout for the bean bag tournament this year. There were 80 teams participating and everyone seemed to have a good time. If anyone on this board was at the tournament (I know you're out there) any feedback of likes and dislikes would be appreciated to enhance the experience in years to come.
Thanks again to everyone for your support.

Cut me off at the beer shack next year. Way too much fun had. Anyone who is looking for a good time next April needs to attend this event. Great atmosphere with good people. It seems to work out perfect with kicking off the spring/summer festivities in Kimball!!! In the future if you want to sign up ahead of time I think if you call the SOB Bar & Grill you can get your team registered early. Meatman, correct me if I am wrong here.
