Abstract: A gaming apparatus which includes a game projectile and a vertical post and a method of employing the same are provided. The game projectile is generally H-shaped and includes a central bar member and first curved legs extending therefrom. Second curved legs are also connected to the central bar member and are more curved than the first legs so as to define a smaller opening between the second legs than that provided between the first legs. Differing point values may be ascribed depending upon whether the game projectile, after projection toward the vertical post, comes to rest with the post being within one or other of the areas bounded by the legs of the game projectile.
