I will admit that I never liked wrestling when I did it in school. However, Turkey really knows how to step up the game and make it more entertaining for everyone. First...you get olive oil poured on you...

Then you head over to join your teammates on the field....

And then...everyone just starts to wrestle in various couplings in the grass.

And, for a macho sport that isn't supposed to be gay at all....uhh, pardon me, but where is your other hand, sir?

It appears that the way you win is by pinning your guy down and doing a LOT of this...

Are you SURE they aren't back there?

Hey wait...they are definitely not down there? Well, you might want to keep looking anyway...

Here is a video of some of the festivities...


Then, once everyone has retrieved their belongings from the other guy's pants...the winning team celebrates.

And everyone finds a friend and heads off to the showers.

They really need to make this an Olympic sport.

And I really need to visit Turkey.
