Bean bag toss target game

Claim 1

A bean bag toss target game comprising, in combination, a plurality of bean bags, freestanding frame means, and a plurality of hollow target pieces supported for individual 360* bidirectional rotation on said frame means, each target piece being an equilateral triangular prism having two equilateral triangular end walls and three square front walls defining three target faces, said frame means supporting said target pieces in equally spaced parallel rows each having the same number of target pieces therein, said frame means having axle means, each target piece having axially aligned triangular apertures centrally formed in its respective end walls, said target pieces rotatably supported on said axle means via their respective triangular apertures, said frame means and said target pieces constructed in relation to said bean bags so that said bean bags are capable of passing completely through said frame means from one side to the other thereof when tossed at said target pieces and so that no bean bag can pass through said frame means without causing rotation of a target piece on said axle means, each target piece when struck by a bean bag passing through said frame means rotatable on said axle means between three target positions to present to view of the user of the game any one of said three target faces but only one thereof at any one time, each target piece in each of its respective three target positions being suspended on said axle means via apexes of its respective triangular apertures, each target piece both rotatable and slidable on its respective axle means and settling by gravity into one of its respective three target positions after being struck by a bean bag passing through said frame means, whereby scoring is effected by observing when corresponding target faces first fill any parallel or diagonal row from rotation of target pieces caused by bean bags tossed thereat passing through said frame means.
