Two teams play and try to knock a bottle off the top of a pole using a Frisbee. You can use empty cups for golf practice, or add some liquor and instantly get a fun drinking game. Similar to a regular frisbee game, but instead of throwing it to other people, you aim at a target in a can and your friend tries to help you score. Set your target hoop and take turns throwing your darts to see who can get closest to the centre. Somewhat close to horseshoes and the bean bag toss, this game requires aim and technique. The players take turns to either throw a “ringer” circling around the stake or get it as close as possible to score. You toss four horseshoes towards a stake in the ground to score points. Horseshoes can be played either between two individuals or teams of two people. Sack races are another great choice for kids (or grown ups, if you’re feeling up for it).
