ABSTRACT:
An outdoor game apparatus has a pair of concrete game surfaces formed on the ground a predetermined distance from each other with each game surface having a plurality of openings therein spaced in a predetermined relationship. Each concrete game surface has a predetermined score mark adjacent each opening therein and each opening has a drainage opening in the bottom thereof to drain water therefrom. Each of a plurality of plastic game discs has a piece of ferric metal formed therein and is sized to fit into each opening in the game surface so that a player standing adjacent one concrete game surface can throw the game disc towards the other game surface for scoring points when the disc goes in one of the openings. The game includes a pair of elongated wands, each having a permanent magnet attached to the end thereof for each player to selectively retrieve a game disc from an opening in the concrete game surface by magnetically adhering to the ferric metal formed in the disc. Thus, alternating players can toss game discs towards a concrete surface to score points and discs that enter the game surface opening, are retrieved by the other player with a magnetic wand for tossing back towards the opposite game surface.
