Would def not want to be the pig. Sport involves riding horse at full gallop down a straight line run then leaning over the side and sticking point of sword into a wooden peg in the ground. Points for 1) getting the peg stuck on the tip of the sword and pulled out of ground (lots), and 2) peg splits in half or more when sword pierces it (half as much). Zero for a complete miss. You get 3 goes at it, and then your final score is the average of all 3. There’s a version where you use a lance to do similar but I’ve never tried that. Sport developed from warfare where cavalry galloped through enemy campsite in the middle of the night pulling up tent pegs as they went. To cause general chaos and render enemy helpless. The things people do for fun never cease to amaze me.

I’m phobic of horses so just NO
Am aware of some nasty training games that delete goats or watermelons … please just no.
The goats and watermelons are safe from me. I gave up this stuff many many moons ago.
