Every year in Gloucestershire England, people hurl themselves down a very steep hill in pursuit of a cheese wheel. And once we have nationalized health care over here, we’ll be able to have the same sort of wacky competitions. |

mm. i was there in that crowd. :P good times.. + they all fall over so easy because the hill is really, really steep, and full of holes. also, most of them were drunk :P tbh, the cheese didn't look so appetising at the end.. it was ace to watch though! :D
This looks like my perfect sport, a combination of two things i love, cheese and throwing yourself down a hill.
cough cough,... I guess when they get it they 'cut the cheese'
Was that.. Borat?
what i gathered from that was run run run, vbouncy bouncy bounce, nose dive and finally a hospital visit. sounds like fun.
Shouldn't the Benny Hill theme be playing?
The hills practically 45 degrees
Wheeee, this looks fun ^_^, but I can't see why they all fall over so easy...
Some of those people where sporting some pretty weird costumes. Who saw the cow?
That cheese must be heavenly especially after rolling through mud and the blood of previous cheese chasers.
Natural selection went wrong somewhere.
Something tells me this ritual has something to do with alcohol.
I never understood the UK "pub culture" until it was explained to me this way by an Irish friend:
"When the weather is good outside, we open the door to the pub, when it's bad, we close it."
That was awesome. I really enjoy the crazy stuff people can come up with. Get the cheese alright!
It's the most delicious cheese in the whole world.
I'll enter the competition, win, and then make my friends feed me that dairy awesomeness bite by bite while I lie on the hospital bed in full body cast.
That cheese, it must taste...of victory.
Why did I hear a yell of "Get the cheese!"?
Who the hell, running down that hill, needed to be told?
Run like crazy and fall 15 times to eventually get tackled by half of what appears to be a rugby team, while the cheese gets away. I want to be part of that.
