When you think of backyard games, games like cornhole, horseshoes, or even social pong will probably be the first to pop into your mind. They’re all well-known and widely played.
Washer toss is not nearly as widely known as the three previous backyard games, but it has a growing fan base that loves the added challenge that the game presents.
While games like cornhole have a large scoring area, and you can get points in games like horseshoes just for landing close to the target, washer toss requires a higher level of precision.
You’re throwing a steel washer with a diameter of 2.5 inches at an 18-inch x 18-inch box. And you have to get your tiny washer in the box from 20 feet away to score.
If you’re looking for a high-skill backyard game that will be a challenge for you and your family or friends, then washer toss is the game for you.
There are several different theories about where washer tossing originated. Some purport that the game originated in ancient Greece more than two thousand years ago. While it’s possible that washer tossing has roots in a game from greek antiquity, the modern version of the game is much closer toparlor quoits—the predecessor of cornhole.
The more plausible theories paint a very different picture. Instead of ancient Greece, these traditions point to either 1800s Indiana or 1900s West Texas.
Some think that 1800s Midwestern pioneers from Indiana would take turns tossing their spare washers into a cup during their breaks. Others believe the game originated in a similar way but on the oil fields of Texas in the early 1900s instead of the forests of Indiana.
Whether it was initially played by pioneers or blue-collar workers is of little consequence. Because either way, the washer toss game is undisputably American.
The game has changed considerably over the years, and multiple variations exist. Originally the game was played by digging two holes in the ground and tossing the washers into them. Eventually, boards with multiple holes were introduced, and each hole was worth a different amount of points. The version that most play today involves a small square board with a box in the center.
