The hog calling contest is a staple of midwestern county and state fairs, but Iowa puts a different spin on the idea with a husband calling contest! You may have seen a viral TikTok video that's racked up more than a million views in the last six days featuring an edited version of some of the contestants from the 2017 competition. The video above is the original uncut report, which gives some context to the silliness. (via Boing Boing)

My wife just yells "soooooiiieeeee". I'm not sure if that's on account of my girth or the quality of her cooking.
She deserved the win!
It's a hoot! They have a place on top of a hill called Pioneer Hall where they do all kinds of things like this. (It's a beautiful fairgrounds, and you can see most of it from Pioneer Hall.)
Another of the big draws is the Cow Chip Throwing Contest- they usually have local media celebrities participating in one heat- always funny!
Happy Friday, Miss C!
Happy Friday, Mark!
