The Air Mail Challenge is the final event of the tournament. Each player will be given 8 cornhole bags and pitch at a box 30' away. Players will have a time limit of 3 minutes to pitch the 8 bags. A player will earn 5 points per cornhole with a chance to score a maximum of 40 points.
Players from seven states have signed up for the event. Virginia, West Virginia, Illinois, Ohio, South Carolina, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Indiana will be represented at the event. There are 128 spots to be filled and when they are filled the tournament will be closed.
