With the prize being the wife's weight in beer, what country's games first featured a wife-carrying championship?
Answer Finland
Although wife-carrying competitions occur in several countries, including Estonia and Sweden, the race first began in Sonkajärvi, Finland. The spectacle involves men carrying their wives either piggyback or with a fireman's carry (or any other style of choice) as fast as possible through an obstacle course.
