NAHA events sound like fun to me!
So, the North American Highlander Association (NAHA) is:
Quote:
...a unique combination of the Scottish Highland Games and Strongman events, resulting in the ultimate test of overall strength and athletic ability.
Contests will consist of either 4, 6 or 8 events with half of the events being Highland Games and half being Strongman.
The merging of these two great competitions will most definitely test one's overall strength and athleticism.

I wish more HGs had the weight divisions...this sounds like a blast.
