The Backyard Ninja could be yours... with a little hard work and small investment. The concept of an all-in-one backyard gaming mega-kit is a sound one, and just because it's creator is pursuing a different career path doesn't meant there isn't a winning company ready to be unleashed. The rest of the website remains intact so you can see how this amazing product was marketed and sold (the online shopping cart has been removed). Use the contact form contained on the "about us" page if interested in the Backyard Ninja. For the price of $999 you would receive 5 complete games, all vendor contact information/pricing, all related domains (four), the trademark "Backyard Ninja" (priceless), the Backyard Ninja Facebook page and more. 
 
Greetings Backyard Lovers!

One of the most challenging and rewarding projects you can undertake for your backyard is to build your own horseshoe pits. Horseshoe pits, when done well, can add to and enhance your backyard, making them a value to not only your property and its value, but also to your quality of life. However, the opposite holds true, too, and horseshoe pits that are constructed last-minute, without much planning or quality can take away from a backyard's charm, lessening your home's value and making it less likely that you'd use them much. I've done some research on your behalf and I believe I found one of the better "how to" guides on building your own pits. This is a great link from the trusted folks at Popular Mechanics (leave to it a bunch of nerd rocket builders to do this right). You'll find that this how-to is one of the better ones because it speaks honestly about time, money and materials, as well as has descriptive charts and pictures. Let us know if you found it helpful or if you have found a better one and I'll share it here. Also, show us your pit-pics, whether you used this guide or not.

with proper planning, a horseshoe pit can add to a backyard, not take away from it.
 
We here at BackyardNinja.com understand that our games are going to be occasionally used in conjunction with drinking, and we're fine with that (dare I say 'proud'). That being said, we feel a Bill Cosby Jell-O Shot drinking game is preferred. Making backyard games for adults is how we make parties enjoyable - whoever made this doesn't need any help. Bravo, Jell-O artist, whoever you are.

How competitive are you? Have you ever screamed, "over the line, Donny!" and meant it? Or are you the type that tells little kids to move up half-way so that they feel better about themselves? Take the following "Backyard Gamer Personality Quiz" and see how you'd respond to real life scenarios.

Sometimes it's nice to know that there's a resource out there where people can go and discuss their hobbies and interests. As a backyard game player and small business owner I find myself always going back to http://www.outdoorgameplayers.com to check out their forums and photo galleries. From there you can witness first hand the pride and passion of some of the community's leaders. Whether it's in their custom games, built one at a time and with great care, or if it's their thoughtful discussion on how to expand the games we love to a broader audience. If you're reading Ninja Blog you'd probably enjoy spending a moment at OGP.com and seeing what the community at large is up to. BackyardNinja.com was started by an inventor and the forum and photo galleries show just how inventive Americans are. New games get created and suggested on the site and a jury of enthusiasts make suggestions. The games we all love took generations to get popular enough to make it around the world, but now, with OGP.com anyone and any game can be given a fair shot and usually those that post ideas do so in a sharing mentality, including plans and instructions so that you can build your own. A very pleasant diversion indeed.
 
Greetings!

Please allow me to use the first blog post to introduce the new BackyardNinja.com website and to set the stage for BackyardNinja.com in 2011. Winter's nearly over and BackyardNinja.com is making preparations for a busy season by working with its vendors to make sure we have plenty of supply this Spring. We have spent the Fall and Winter tweaking every aspect of our company to better respond to our customers, and with their helpful comments and reviews we are confident that we've perfected our one-of-a-kind product, the Backyard Ninja! 

With its ability to have up to 20 playing backyard games only moments after you've opened up the kit, the Backyard Ninja provides people who use their backyards to entertain a very unique option to make sure their parties are one-of-a-kind and enjoyed by all. Bear with me while I explain how 20 people can all be playing lawn games only moments after you lay the kit down in this hypothetical:

Lay down your Backyard Ninja and tell eight people to pair up and each grab a Bocce Ball. Next, hand over the Disc-O Towers set and the 175 gram flying disc and tell four more to pair up and prepare to be diving all over the place. Step three, get Gramps and his three friends the horseshoes and tell 'em to go get a couple ringers. Grab your Hacky Sack and tell a handful of lazy teenagers to get a "hack." And, finally, you and your wife challenge the Smiths to round of Washer Toss. You haven't even played all of the games included in your Backyard Ninja, but you've got 24 people up and moving, cheering and laughing. 

This is why we believe that the future of our brand and our products is so strong - Nothing else on the market today offers such a durable, portable, unique and wholesome good time in the outdoors. So whether it's a backyard party for adults, a camping trip with the family or you're getting ready for the big family reunion, if you bring a Backyard Ninja you'll be ensuring that your gathering's a huge hit! See our Products page for all of our offerings. Game On!
