Do folks from Chicagoland call it cornhole or bags?

It’s bags if you’re from chicago. South of I 80 probably call it cornhole. Idk idc what they call it
I grew up 30 miles south of I-80, and we called it bags. Being north of I-80 isn't special.
I know being from the city isn’t special, being from the country isn’t special, being from Manteno isn’t special. No one is special because their parents raised them in a town. It was a joke, try not to be so offended
An explanation for my response: OP's "joke" was to create an "us vs. them" situation, based on an incorrect assumption, where OP, a Chicagoan, was correct, and the "other", people from south of I-80, were wrong.
A viewpoint like this, while seemingly innocent in this particular situation, can have very negative consequences when shared or expressed in large numbers. Specifically, it's how we end up with Chicago-hating morons like Darren Bailey running for Governor, who take up the "us vs. them" mentality from the other side.
Lol, is Manteno your guess for where I'm from? Did you have to look that up on a map? Try again.
Dude, try not to be offended, the guy said it was a joke.
My reply was a joke, try not to be so offended.
Ok
I didn’t. I really don’t care to do so.
