Default Yard Games
Who has what?

I just got a horse shoe set. This is going to be a fun summer.

Any other games out there I need to get?

Default Sure
Texas horseshoes, we make a 2x4 foot box with holes in it. Then we toss washers. some folks call it the washer game. You can take it anywhere and it's a blast.
The Original Washers Game - Buy Washers Toss Games and Texas Horseshoes Games
We do this when we go camping, I made mine in about 2 hours.

I had a set of horse shoes a while back...had a danged horse attached to them. Made it kinda hard to throw, or maybe the horse just didn't have a sense of humor.

I'm in a college town right now, so the most popular yard game is cornhole aka bean bag toss.

That's neat. Did you make your own or did you buy one?
