Leek Lobbing
The Scottish have tossing the caber and the "North Walians" have... um... leek lobbing. Delete as nonsense humour Sliggy 10:58, August 19, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete (changed from 'Reserved'). I would so like this to be true, if anyone has any refs for it please update it as I could only find this Alf 13:26, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment I suspect this to be a hoax, given that the current holder of the cup seems to be from a place called "Green Bus". Tonywalton  | Talk 14:12, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
 * ... and is very probably one half of Jo and Mike above, given both pages were initially created by the same anonymous user and mention this green bus Sliggy 14:56, August 19, 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete, nnhoax. Sdedeo 15:13, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'd missed the Jo and Mike link. I bet they're called "Illtyd". Pity though, this sounded like fun, especially in the edited version where the sheep got to "feast well on the leeks after the game was over". Tonywalton | Talk 15:22, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Probably a hoax. Alex.tan 18:15, August 19, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Seems like a hoax. I so wanted it to be true, and there are a few tantalizing references in the BBC to the idea, but they all seem to be jokes. None of the locals I've asked have heard of it. Therefore either a hoax or so totally obscure that it's only known in one home green van in Wales. Collabi 18:33, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. But if ever there were a sound candidate for ostension this would be it. It would be much more fun to change real life to meet the wiki here rather than the other way around. Collabi 19:06, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete: hoax. &mdash; ciphergoth 07:36, August 20, 2005 (UTC)
