Convertible carton game system

Abstract

A convertible carton game system may include a carton including a plurality of panels comprising a top panel and a bottom panel. At least one of the plurality of panels includes perforations that when broken form a target and that which form a projectile for being propelled at the target as part of a game.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A convertible carton game system comprising:
 a carton comprising a plurality of panels comprising a top panel and a bottom panel,
 wherein at least one of the plurality of panels comprises perforations that when broken form a target and that which form a projectile for being propelled at the target as part of a game. 
   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the perforations form a punchout forming the projectile. 
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 2 , wherein the punchout is configured to be separated from the carton to form a target opening. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the punch out comprises second perforations that outline a perimeter of each of a plurality of pieces which when combined form the projectile. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 4 , wherein each of the plurality of pieces comprises a circular piece which when stacked form the projectile. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the target opening is circular and wherein the projectile is configured to pass through the target opening. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 6 , wherein the projectile is circular. 
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the target opening is rectangular. 
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the perforations outlining a second target opening, the second target opening being rectangular and larger than the target opening, and wherein the projectile is circular. 
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the perforations form a punch out, the punchout comprising second perforations that outline a perimeter of each of a plurality of pieces which when combined form the projectile. 
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the target comprises a goalpost. 
     
     
         12 . The system of claim number one, or the target comprises a post and wherein the projectile is horseshoe shaped. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 12 , wherein the carton comprises an opening and wherein the post is configured to be received within the opening so as to stand upright. 
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the target comprises a wall having an opening and wherein the projectile comprises a disk for being propelled through the opening. 
     
     
         15 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the carton comprises a punchout for securement of a rubber band to propel the projectile. 
     
     
         16 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the carton comprises a cereal box. 
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the carton is formed from a paperboard material. 
     
     
         18 . The system of  claim 1  further comprising a bag within the carton and sealed about food items. 
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the perforations are located and configured (1) such that the carton may be separated into two ramped bodies, each of the ramped bodies having a main ramp platform having a target opening, triangular sidewalls and a rear wall extending downward from a top end of the main ramp platform, and (2) such that the projectile is smaller than the target opening and is formed from portions of the carton not forming the ramped bodies. 
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the target is configured to stand upright relative to a remainder of the carton when the carton is converted to the game.
