Most everyone has heard about thumb wrestling but what about finger wrestling? AKA Fingerhakeln it is a sport practiced in several areas in Europe but the main action takes place in Bavaria where the championships are held. This year 150 men gathered in a big beer tent and drank beer and ate sausages between events. The sport originated as a way to settle disputes, two contestants sit on opposite sides of a table and hook their middle fingers through a leather loop and try to pull their competitor across the table. The winner goes on to the next round. Beer and sausages sound good.
