Congratulations to Sam Brakeley and Steph Reighart from Lebanon, NH, winners of the 16th Annual North American Wife Carrying Championship!
North American Wife Carrying Championship® | Sunday River
It's on to the big show for Sam and Steph at the World Championships in 2016 in Finland where they will presumably meet 2-time world champions Ville Parvianen and Sari Viljanen. Let's hope that US finally breaks thru and brings home the championship for us.
U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
Top prize includes the wife's weight in beer along with some cash.
