Sport & Fitness » Toe Wrestling is a Sport, whhhaattt?!

Pin It

We arm wrestle, wrestle physically but did you know toe wresting is a sport or well semi-sport? It's a popular sport in the UK supposedly though!

The object of the game is similar to arm wrestling except you're using your toes and not your hands/arm. Your toes have to bare naked [no socks or shoes] and both feet touches each other [you and the opponent] then you try to use your big toe and hold on the opponents then you say 1-2-3-4, I declare toe war [sort of like thumb wrestling].

Would you battle with your friends now knowing toe wrestling even exists? Did you know toe wresting existed prior to reading this post? I didn't.... I might want to try with my boyfriend but he might think I'm crazy. I probably wouldn't want to try with people though unless their feet is clean and smelling fresh! Sucks when there is a competition and there is always someone with slipper or wet feet or something, that would suck!
