Mud, Sweat and Beers - Germany's Mud Olympics

The far north of Germany is almost as far into the Great Beyond as you can get and still be in continental Europe. The weather looks menacing but we’re heading to a festival where a little rain really won’t hurt anybody – Germany’s Wattolümpiade, the Mud Olympics.

The place to be was Brunsbüttel, by the North Sea, in Germany. Mud football, mud handball and mud skating were on the sporting agenda. Every year, the small town near river Elbe hosts the dirtiest sports event in whole Germany - the Mud Olympics (Wattolümpiade).

Team members huddle together and chant while covered in mud during the Mud Olympics held in Champaign's Washington Park on Friday. The Mud Olympics is a series of events where participants compete in tug of war, wheelbarrow races, football, and dodgeball against each other as teams. The event is sponsored by Alpha Omicron Pi to raise money for Juvenile Diabetes.
