I finally managed to finish editing last Sunday's puzzle!! I appreciate all of your patience with this one, it was a doozy! 🥵

Thanks for all the hard work with this one Goose! This just goes to show how even the most experienced solvers can be rebuffed by a puzzle without a few footholds. Loved ROOMBA and NEON. Happy belated to Mrs. Goose as well :)

You said it gsdlmj, a tough theme like this one can really throw a spanner into the works!

Yikes, a very tricky Sunday puzzle, Goose! Cornhole? As kids, we called that Bean Bag Toss!

[@thegoosiverbalist]

I just looked it up, and apparently cornhole has a variety of regional names - here's a list from Wikipedia: Baggo, bean bag toss, dummy boards, doghouse, dadhole, sacks, beans, beanbag, bean in the hole, ramps, bean bags, ball bags. You could do some really cruel misdirections with some of these: doghouse, sacks, beans, and ramps in particular!
