ABSTRACT:
A pitch and toss game apparatus comprising a first target (10) and a plurality of throwing objects (17). The first target (10) is constructed with a centrally located cylindrical cavity (11). The upper surface (10u) of the first target (10) has a layer of a first contact engaging material (12) attached to it. The throwing objects (17) are covered with a second contact engaging material (18), complementary to the material covering the upper surface (10u) of the first target (10). When the throwing object (17) is pitched or tossed towards the first target (10), the first contact engaging material (12) of the first target (10) and the second contact engaging material (18) of the throwing object (17) cause the throwing object (17) to firmly stick to the first target (10) at or near the point of initial contact should the throwing object (17) miss landing in the centrally located cylindrical opening (11). A pole shaped member (20) may be later fitted inside the centrally located cylindrical cavity (11) to transform the primary pitch and toss game apparatus into a ring/horseshoe style pitch and toss game. A second target (28) having its top surface (29) covered with a first contact engaging material (12) and the lower surface of the second target (28) covered with a second contact engaging material (18) may later be affixed to the first target (10) to transform the primary pitch and toss game into a "tic-tac-toe" style pitch and toss game.
