Riding Crops

I can’t get this picture out of my mind.
I stole it from Blobby’s Blog. It is a photo of a sculpture in Columbus, Ohio. I guess it is meant to celebrate the town’s farming heritage.
But, as I commented on his blog, it looks to me like the training grounds for an army of power bottoms.
The Army Corps of Itchy Rears.
I’ve keep envisioning dozens of corn-fed (literally) enlisted men, pouring from the barracks in their ass-less camouflage Daisy Duke fatigues. Their plump bubble butts bounce as they trot across the grounds and fall into rank while being verbally abused by the Drill(ing) Instructor. (By the way, I am not the DI in this fantasy scenario. I rank much higher. I would be the Cornhole Commando-in-Chief.) They move in formation like a well-oiled lubricated machine.
These would be mounted regiments, of course.
Their motto:
We do more by 8AM than most do all week.
And you wonder why they’re called grunts?
NOTE: Apparently New York City has already established a regiment. An army of one?

The Navy would want to play, too…after all, they do have Rear Admirals!

That is so funny, when I worked in the city, I’d pass by the “Field of Corn” every morning commute. But you do realize that those things are seven feet tall? That would be SOME serious power bottom regiment indeed!!

Ugh, I remember driving from Cincinnati to Columbus and it really was nothing but corn fields. I kept hearing the theme music from “Children of the Corn”.

Who on the Chamber of Commerce said, “Hey, I have a good idea…!”

OMG - I’ve been immortalized by LT. Ok - I’m not a guest blogger here or anything, but I’ll take a butt-corn shot. Literally. Figuratively. However!

This monument and your comments about it give a completely new slant on the term ‘cornhole’-ing.

for two of Tony’s favorite pastimes, (both games—football and cornhole), plus mention of hot midwest pro athletes, one of whom has turned his love of cornholing into a charity, try this link:

one more link—couldn’t resist this quote:
“Carson has combined his passion for helping children with his love for one of Cincinnati’s favorite past times - cornhole - to create a unique and exciting event perfect for a corporate outing, entertaining clients or family fun.”

I will have to forward you an ear of corn story (not me) as written by a power bottom

This is actually a landmark in the town named Dublin, which is a suburb of Columbus. It it right up the road from Tuttle Crossing Mall on the way to Graeter’s Ice Cream (which is EXCELLENT BTW). I would pass it every day on my way home from managing one of the “stereotypically gay” stores in the mall. Won’t say which one. It supposedly does have something to do with the town of Dublin and their history. I never quite understood it but, hey-it’s not my town to make those decisions. LOL
