If you've read Neatorama for a long time, you've heard of the Wife Carrying Contest and the World Beard and Moustache Championships, but did you know about the Gumboot Throwing Festival? And who knew there was a thing called competitive sauna? Listverse has a rundown of 8 Crazy Championships. Who knows, you might want to enter one someday! Link -via the Presurfer

The pig contest is remarkably similar to something held in Vienna (pronounced VI-enn-uh) Georgia -- the Big Pig Jig, which includes such things as a pig call competition (for kids and drunks), BBQ cookoff, and pig beauty contest. Next to the redneck games, it's the highpoint of fun for rednecks in Georgia.
