Every two years, the town of Chinchilla pays tribute to the melon harvest with the Chinchilla Melon Festival where people not only eat the melons but use them for a number of other activities including headbutting them. The highlight of the festival however is Water Melon Skiing.
Put down a long tarpaulin and make it slippy - the insides of a few dozen water melons make a grand lubricant. Players take it in turns to stand at the beginning of the run, each foot encased in a scooped out water melon. They then hold onto a rope being held by two people standing either side of the tarp - these two players run down the course dragging the water melon skier behind them. The person who remains on his feet for the longest distance is the winner.
Llangollen is too scared to have Bunny Hopping Races and here's Chinchilla strapping melons onto people's feet and dragging them to oblivion.
