Masskrugstemmen!

Friday and Saturday nights during Oktoberfest, patrons will have the opportunity to participate in the famous "Masskrugstemmen" stein-holding contest. "Masskrugstemmen," which loosely translates to mean "the lifting of a liter mug of beer," is a Bavarian sport that requires strength, stamina and pure determination. The "Masskrug" is a one-liter stein, and the goal is to hold the filled stein parallel to the floor only using one arm only. The competitor who holds it out the longest is the winner.
