On Monday dozens of contestants battled it out in a pool full of gravy at the annual World Gravy Wrestling Championship at the ‘Rose ‘n Bowl’ pub in Rossendale, Lancashire, UK. The participants had to wrestle for 2 minutes without falling into the brown liquid with additional points awarded for fancy outfits and entertainment. The local fire brigade was on site to rinse off the wrestlers’ gravy coating between rounds. The popular event draws crowds every year, with the competition set to raise a substantial amount of money for local charities.
