3 Things We Learned On Our First Trip To The ACL World Championship
by Sandra Scott on Aug 11, 2022

HOLY COW! We were warned about the overwhelm of World's and were STILL overwhelmed! Anyone else crash every night like you had just spent the entire day at an amusement park? Seriously, ya'll weren't kidding!
Cornhole all day. Cornhole all night. We were in Heaven.
We had so many valuable takeaways from the week and a long car ride home to talk about it.
Here is our final Top 3:
1. Our cornhole family is bigger than we realized.
We already know and love our local cornhole family. At World's, our family grew exponentially, extending all over the country! The same energy and vibe we love in Central Florida is the same energy and vibe we found in a venue filled with 1800+ people (and that includes the ACL Staff). What an amazing network of human beings! (Do you see anyone you know in this picture? TAG THEM!)

(This is only about 1/6th of the crowd at Rock Hill Sports & Event Center!)
2. We must pace ourselves. It's a long week.
We arrived on Sunday, super excited to be there, sit & go's, hotel parking lot blind draws, cornhole bags flying all around us. When Monday hit, we were already exhausted. We learned that we must take it easy until competition day and get lots of rest in between so we're not played out.
*Note to self: pack lidocaine patches for next time.

3. Practice and talk with the Pros.
Name any other game where you can step next to a Pro and play, gaining helpful FREE advice while you practice together? Every Pro my honey spoke with was happy to be approached and even eager to be of service. Honey even scored a couple sets of new cornhole bags which was an unexpected surprise. He took advantage of the expertise that surrounded him and next season will be better because of it.
