Patent attributes
A ball tossing device for use in playing a ball tossing game includes a rod, which is substantially rigid, a basket, which is attached to a front face of the rod proximate to an upper end of the rod, and a cup, which is positioned in the basket and which is attached to a bottom of the basket. The cup is sized complementarily to a portion of a ball to be used in a ball tossing game, allowing the portion of the ball to be inserted into and retained by the cup when the rod is substantially vertical. A rear sight is attached to and extends from the upper end of the rod. The rod can be grasped in a hand of a user, positioning the user to align the rear sight with a target and to launch the ball at the target by one or both of a flick of a wrist or an extension of a forearm of the user.
