Crashing Bridges game

Abstract

Crashing Bridges is a game which consists of breaking magnet bonded objects with tossed bags. The flat objects, attached to a rectangular open frame, are tenuously connected in the middle of the frame by magnets attached to each corresponding object (e.g. 9 pairs). Crashing Bridges improves on the objective of other lawn games by making the rules of the game simpler to grasp and with no point totals to keep track of. The game is played by each player starting at an agreed upon distance apart (e.g. 10 feet) facing each other with a Crashing Bridges board by their side. Each player takes turns throwing corn or rice filled bags with the intent to break the “bridges” with the tossed bag, breaking the bond of the paired magnets and dropping the “bridge.” The player who knocks down all of the “bridges” first on the opposing players board wins.

1 . A bag toss game with targets comprised of several paired objects spaced at regular intervals;
 aligned and connected at an 180 degree angle within a rectangular open frame; wherein one end of each object being permanently affixed to an inside of the rectangular open frame with a pliable material, so that the permanently affixed end is configured to serve as a hinges; and an opposite free end of each object being magnetically connected to a free side of an identically aligned object affixed to an opposite side of the frame; wherein a weight of a tossed bag is necessary to dislocate the magnetic connection between the paired objects, thereby causing the dislocated hinged objects to drop to an approximately 45 degree angle.   
     
     
         2 . The bag toss game of  claim 1 , wherein a distance between bag tossing players may he varied to increase or decrease a level of difficulty and skill required in breaking to break the magnetically connected objects as a greater distance between game structures makes it more difficult to accurately throw and hit targets.
