KEEP IT COOL, KEEP IT FRESH, KEEP IT FUN!
The Big Idea! How CoolToss™ was born...
Our story starts with a group of friends with a passion for football.
Each year, we travel together for a football weekend to watch our favorite
NFL team. In 2004, we traveled to Cincinnati, OH and saw tailgaters
playing the game known as “Corn Hole”, tossing corn-filled bags onto
boards 20-feet apart. We thought the game was a lot of fun and a great way
to spend time with friends and family. We thought, “why not bring this
game back to our home towns to share at our next outing.”
In 2006, our football trip took us to Tampa Bay, FL for another NFL
match up. The night before the game, we purchased two five gallon buckets
at a local bait n’ tackle shop to use for coolers, filling them with beer
and ice for tailgating. While tailgating, advertisers were handing out
small, soft footballs as promotional items. Given our competitive nature,
we started tossing these footballs into our buckets, challenging each
other to our own game of toss. To make it more of a game, we decided to
place the buckets 20-feet apart and created rules for scoring points.
Needless to say, we had a lot of fun and attracted a lot of attention.
Based on this, a few of us had a great idea. “Why not create a game
that is both fun and functional?” Our idea has developed into a new and
one-of-a-kind (patent-pending) product, called Cool Toss™. Cool Toss™
combines the function of a cooler with the fun of a game.
In 2007, we made our idea a reality by developing a product ready for
market. With our Cool Toss™ creation in tow, we traveled around the
country, visiting San Francisco’s Fleet Week, a Blue Angel’s air show,
local taverns and parks, football games in Atlanta, Baltimore, Buffalo and
San Francisco, the rodeo in San Antonio and the beaches in Florida,
California and Texas. Everywhere we went with Cool Toss™, people asked
where they could get their own Cool Toss™. The response has been
overwhelmingly positive and we know everyone can be a winner with their
own Cool Toss™.
1. With two Cool Toss™ coolers: place them 20-feet apart. With
one Cool Toss™ cooler: place a line marker 20-feet from the
front of your cooler.
2. Cool Toss™ can be played as teams or as singles. When playing
in teams, two contestants are partnered against another team of two
contestants. When playing as singles, a contestant competes against
another contestant.
3. With two Cool Toss™ coolers: For team play, a member of each
competing team stands at opposite coolers. For individual play, both
competitors stand at one of the coolers. With one Cool Toss™ cooler: For
team or single’s play, all competitors stand at the line
marker.
4. With one or two Cool Toss™ coolers: For team or single’s
play, teams/players alternate tossing one Cool Toss™ bag from the same
Cool Toss™ cooler or line marker until both players have tossed all their
bags. Once all bags have been tossed, scoring is recorded and play
continues from the opposite Cool Toss™ cooler or at the line marker with
the highest scoring team/player from the last round tossing first.
5. Scoring:
Tossed – if 1 bag lands in each of the 3 holes, your opponent has
officially been TOSSED! (Bubba’s Rule)
3 points – if bag lands in either of the two smaller holes
2 points – if bag lands in the largest hole
1 point – if bag lands and stays on the top of Cool Toss™
cooler at the end of round of play
Note: competing players can negate an opposing player’s point
for the round of play by also scoring points within the same round
6. How to Win:
Team Play – first team to 15 points wins (must win by 2 points)
Single’s Play – first player to 11 points wins (must win by 2 points)
