Actually Bocce has become more popular here in the last few years. It is becoming a backyard favorite at picnics. I have heard of friends talk about playing it....it will never top Cornhole for American backyard favorites though. And then there is Amish Golf (ladder golf).....its getting pretty big,http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Ladder-Golf-Game
At this time of year I doubt any American will get this tag. I could bust out moms old Croquet set and do a photoshoot!;)

Hey if you bust out moms old croquet set and get a photo that is more than good! And that goes for anyone else too. :)
 
I've always played bocce ball on my lawn.
Or extreme bocce ball. We had a huge hilly park that one day my friends and I played a game of bocce ball that got out of hand. We were throwing them underhand all over, mostly quite far away and down little cliffs. It was a blast.
But, yeah, we don't have any specific places around here.

Lawn Bowling. Hmmmmmm.:-k Not sure if I can do anything with that. I know where there are some shuffle board courts, there might be some lawn bowling going ohn there. Don't sweat it Trevor, having a tough one everynow and then, just might get some of us out to places we don't normally go. Weve got people from all over the world here in central Fl. Theres got to be some lawn bowling around somewhere. There 48 hours to find one, so don't even think of changing the tag yet.

I gotta ask... Cornhole means something completely different in Canada ?;)

Why not use the lawn bowling club in Mt. Dora ?:)

I just might, but it's about a 45 min. ride and I'm not exactually sure where it is. The one I found is a ten min. ride, so I'll go there first and see how acessible it is. If I can't get it I'll go out to the mountain.:eek: It's hard on my ears with the elevation change and the thinner atmosphere way up there. If I must, I must. Question though, since it seems to be the Canadian National sport, why don't you get the tag?;)

Oops....Google doesn't give those little details.:) I'm tied up til Sunday afternoon, someone should have the tag by then. The only one around here is surrounded by a fence.
 
You never saw the movie staring George Hamilton? I've got the tag. Now I have to get home to port it. Next tag hint to hold you guys over and so you have time to figure out where to go. It has 18 holes and kids love it.
 
Actually now that you mention it, I did. But it was so long ago, I don't really remember anything.

Wrong Kemosabe, but very good idea for a future tag. We have a few frisbee golf cources around.First things first One Bocce Ball court.
