The 3rd Annual Stein Hoisting Competition:

Okay stein studs, get ready to hoist those bad boys with your arms out! Men and women over 21 years of age are invited to participate in the competition! It's your ultimate test of arm/shoulder strength. How does it work?

Rules: Participants can qualify for the finals at any participating Denver Area bar during scheduled promotions OR qualify at the 43nd Annual Denver Oktoberfest. You must hold two full 1.5 Liter steins with straight arms in front of you. The male and female contestants who hold up the steins for the longest time will win an all expense paid trip to Boston for two, compliments of Sam Adams. You can schedule your trip during the Boston Oktoberfest, or at your leisure.

Last year over 8,000 spectators were at the finals to cheer on the Male and Female competitors. Think Gladiator or Game Seven of the World Series, the atmosphere was electric. This event will be held douring all six days of Oktobrefest, to participate all you need to do is show up and tell a staff member by the stage that you want to participate.
