Bag toss game projectile bag
A bag for a bag toss game includes a first panel, a second panel opposite the first panel, and at least one gusset panel disposed between the first and second panels. The first and second panels joined to at least a part of the at least one gusset panel, proximate respective peripheral edges, to define an enclosed receptacle, and a fill material sealed within the receptacle. In another aspect, the gusset panel, in a filled condition of the bag, is arranged substantially perpendicular to at least one of the first panel or the second panel.
1. A projectile bag for a bag toss game, the bag comprising:
a first panel;
a second panel opposite the first panel;
at least one gusset panel disposed between the first and second panels;
the first and second panels joined to at least a part of the at least one gusset panel, proximate respective peripheral edges, to define an enclosed receptacle; and
a fill material sealed within the receptacle;
the bag constructed and arranged such that the gusset panel and fill material cooperate such that the bag exhibits an effective flexural rigidity that biases any raised edge of the bag in a direction toward a game board playing surface, without rolling or tumbling, when the bag lands on the playing surface with the first or second panel forming an angle to the playing surface after having been tossed from a distance with forward momentum;
wherein the material of the at least one gusset panel is different from the material of the first panel and the material of the second panel.
2. The bag of claim 1 , wherein the gusset panel, in a filled condition of the bag, is arranged substantially perpendicular to at least one of the first panel or the second panel.
3. The bag of claim 1 , wherein the material of the first panel is different from the material of the second panel.
4. The bag of claim 1 , wherein the material of the first panel is the same as the material of the second panel.
5. The bag of claim 3 , wherein the material of the entire first panel is different from the material of the entire second panel.
6. The bag of claim 5 , wherein:
the material of the first panel facilitates sliding of the bag on a game surface; and
the material of the second panel inhibits sliding of the bag on the game surface.
7. The bag of claim 4 , wherein the material of the first panel and the second panel facilitates sliding of the bag on a game surface.
8. The bag of claim 1 , wherein the first and second panels are joined to at least a part of the at least one gusset panel by machine or hand-stitched thread.
9. The bag of claim 1 , wherein the at least one gusset panel is sized and arranged to receive indicia that is visible externally of the bag.
10. The bag of claim 1 , wherein the first and second panels have square shapes.
11. The bag of claim 10 , wherein the sides of the first and second panels are each 6 inches in length.
12. The bag of claim 9 , further comprising visible indicia on the at least one gusset panel.
