Goldberg admitted that she doesn’t know what cornhole is.
Sara Haines wasted no time probing Whoopi Goldberg’s prowess on lawn games,
As she stunned The View moderator by simply saying the title of her beloved cornhole on the show’s Tuesday season 28 premiere.
Haines filled her fellow panelists in on how she spent her month-long summer hiatus, and brought up cornhole while reminiscing about a Hilton Head vacation with her family.
“My mom is turning 80 in October, so we went as a family together. My parents, siblings, their partners, the kids,” Haines said.
“When we get together, it’s the whole reason I wanted to have a family was because my original family was so blissful, that I thought, ‘How do we make this last forever?’ By just procreating, and that’s what we did.”
She then told her cohosts “it was a lot of cornhole” during their downtime, prompting Goldberg to physically recoil in shock over Haines’ decision to use the word shortly after saying “procreating.”
Haines reiterated that her family had a “cornhole tournament for days,” leading Goldberg to urge her to “explain cornhole” — and quickly.
“I know cornhole, but it just sounded a little sexual,” Alyssa Farah Griffin said, confirming what everyone else was thinking.
“It’s bean bags into wood with a hole, and you can really throw down with all ages of people. My dad is 82 and he beats us every time,” Haines continued.
Goldberg, still too stunned to speak, attempted to throw the show to commercial while shifting both her face and her body in her seat.
Sensing Goldberg’s discomfort, Haines leaned over and quipped, “Not that cornhole,” before Goldberg looked toward the camera and said, “We’re going to be right back. Oh my God, cornhole!”
The exchange happened atop The View’s brand new set, which also debuted as part of the show’s season 28 premiere.
Goldberg welcomed the audience back to the show at the start of the live broadcast by standing on a large platform off to the side of the studio, holding a champagne glass in the air as she toasted to new episodes ahead.
Amid the show’s break throughout August, its cohosts made headlines on their own — including Griffin speculating on social media about how Taylor Swift could assist Kamala Harris in winning the election, while Ana Navarro hosted the second night of the Democratic National Convention in August, after she harshly criticized conservative pundit Ann Coulter for mocking Walz’s son, who has a learning disorder, for his heartwarming enthusiasm in supporting his dad at the Chicago event.
As the new season of The View kicked off, the topic of cornhole quickly became a point of discussion that left Whoopi Goldberg visibly surprised. Sara Haines shared about her family vacation to Hilton Head, where they had a “cornhole tournament for days.”
The idea of tossing bean bags into wooden boards with a hole seemed innocent enough, but the choice of words seemed to make Goldberg a bit uncomfortable.
Despite the initial shock, it was clear that cornhole was a popular game that brought Haines’ family together. It was a time for bonding and friendly competition, with family members of all ages participating.
Even Haines’ dad, at 82 years old, proved to be a fierce competitor who consistently outplayed the younger members.
The lighthearted banter about cornhole on The View led to a hilarious exchange that left the audience in stitches. Goldberg’s reaction only added to the comedic moment, as she struggled to compose herself before the show cut to commercial.
As The View returned with a brand new set for its 28th season, it was clear that the hosts were ready for more engaging discussions and entertaining moments.
From Taylor Swift’s potential impact on the election to Ana Navarro’s powerful hosting at the Democratic National Convention, the cohosts showed that they were not afraid to tackle important issues with wit and intelligence.
The incident with cornhole may have caught Goldberg off guard, but it was just one of many memorable moments that The View has in store for its viewers. Stay tuned for more updates and engaging conversations that will keep you informed and entertained.
