North Country Mercantile Barnyard Olympics

Eight contestants competed to see who was the best farm hand at the 2009 ND State Fair. To kick off the event was a wheel barrow race. Weaving in and out of six orange cones and coming out on top was Tyler Vollmer. Next up was a bale throw. Each person forked a bale of straw with a pick fork and chucked it as far as they could. It had to pass 10ft to be counted. Tyson Reiter picked his way into first with a 21ft 7in. throw. Oh then there was the animal calling contest where everyone drew an animal out of the hat and mimic that animal. We had everything from a rabbit to a pig to a duck! Also, bonus points were awarded if the contestants showed up in farmer joe attire. Congratulations to all that won and thanks for a good show!
