A game in which hollow rings or horshoe shaped members are pitched or tossed by competitive players at erect pins of two similar game boards. The two similar game boards fit together for compact storage and transportation thereof. The game comprises a pair of members each having a generally planar playing surface, a plurality of pins associated with each playing surface, recesses formed on each of the playing surfaces for cooperating with the free ends of the pins for positioning said playing surfaces relative to each other in a predetermined manner when the playing surfaces are disposed in opposed, generally parallel relationship one to the other, and arms for securing together said members for compact storage and transportation of the game. Each pin includes first and second members, the first member of which is securely mounted to one of the playing surfaces and having a free end disposed outwardly from the playing surface, and the second member having a part thereof mounted for movement toward and away from the free end of the first member whereby the overall length or heighth of the pin may be increased when the game is being played and decreased when the game is assembled for storage or transportation. Each of the playing surfaces includes supports for positioning said playing surface at a predetermined angle of inclination relative to a support surface.
