Tug of War

Tug of war (also known as tug o' war) is a sport that pits two teams against each other in a test of strength: teams pull on opposite ends of a rope, with the goal being to bring the rope a certain distance in one direction against the force of the opposing team's pull.

The sport was part of the Olympic Games from 1900 until 1920, but has not been included since.
