Yes, awsome event!

We really like the wife carrying competition...

I will quote from the litterature:

"Little people and dwarf carry is encouraged!"

and

"The prize for the fastest couple is the wife’s weight in beer!"

I found it very cool to watch, and certainly worth a "yes, why not?".
And compare to 2x 11 grown-up men running after a ball the term "hilarious" is relative, even compare to the wife-carry contest.
