It can take up to half a hour to have a single pull. The teams are of equal men and have a anchorman at the end of the rope.
The tug-o-war was a hard battle this year and the final had a exiting finish, all the teams battled there hardest to win the title. But it was take by Elgin.
If you would like to know a little of the history of the tug-o-war go to the Tomintoul Highland Games 2008 Page as there is some videos of the tug-o-war with a sound track on the subject. Two teams compete against each other with a long rope, with a centre marker on the rope and two markers equal distance from the marker at the rope centre, the first team to pull the rope marker of the opposite team past a post set into the ground, at the position of the centre marker at the start of the pull wins.
