International Classification:

A63B 6706

US Classification:

273401

Abstract:

An apparatus and a method of play for a disc tossing game is disclosed. The apparatus includes two tapered, generally cylindrical containers with a slot in their sides and a disc with dull edges. When the disc tossing game is played in a yard or a park, the containers may have an open top and a closed bottom with the top having a larger diameter than the bottom. When the disc tossing game is played on a beach or indoors, e. g. , in an indoor gymnasium, the containers may have an open top and an open bottom where the top has a smaller diameter than the bottom. The players always have an option as to which container is used in any type of playing situation. When the disc tossing game is played, the two containers are placed at a distance from each other and the disc is tossed at each of the containers in turn with each toss being scored and a winner being declared when one of two two-player teams reaches a score of exactly twenty-one.
