Listen "The King of Cornhole: Sebastian Barger’s Journey to #1"
Episode Synopsis
Few people in Paragould can say they’re the best in the world at something—Sebastian Barger is one of them.
A graduate of Paragould High School, Sebastian’s story took off during the COVID shutdowns when he found himself with extra time and a simple set of cornhole boards. What started as 3–4 hours of daily practice quickly turned into a path to the pros. Within a year, he was competing at the highest level. And in 2025, that dedication paid off as he claimed the title of American Cornhole Organization World Singles Champion—cementing his place as the best in the world.
In this episode, we talk with Sebastian about his journey from backyard boards to world champion, what it takes to compete on the biggest stage, and how Paragould shaped the athlete—and person—he’s become.
