"Washer Pitching" and washer games have been around for over 100 years, dating back to the days of covered wagons. The cowboys would take the wheel off the wagon and pitch the washer into the hub of the wheel for entertainment.
In 1986, as the word of "Let's Pitch Washers" began to spread into the community, non-profit organizations began to approach me about Washer Pitching Tournaments to help raise money for their charities. (Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo, American Cancer Society, San Jacinto Day Foundation, and area charities, to name a few). Through this type of exposure, "Let's Pitch Washers" soon reached the retail market place and is being sold in sporting good stores in the Houston area and parts of South Texas.
