City Sport

[K87]

Remember hearing a while ago about some city or town somewhere that has a traditional sport which involves the whole town literally having to get something from one side of the town to another. Can't remember any other details but I'm sure it was a case of literally anything goes.

Any thoughts?

The Rules

There are very few rules in existence. The main ones are:

* Committing murder or manslaughter is prohibited. Unnecessary violence is frowned upon.
