Hunkerhausen - Tug of War for two. Participants stand on stumps, blocks, or over turned cast iron pots and attempt to pull their opponent off their stump. For added amusement, this can be done over a mud or dust pit. Advertise this as a very messy game and suggest participants bring old garb to wear during the game. Match Lighting - Set up an old tree stump or large block of wood and wedge wooden kitchen matches into cracks in the top.
Contestants use a short sword and strike at the head of the match to light it.
Requires lots of matches. Don't use your best blade for this one. Be prepared to clean, polish and sharpen numerous marks out of your blade. Skadi's Stitches - Bring material, scissors, needle and thread and teams of up to five people. You'll be sewing Viking garb for one member of your team throughout the day.
