It's still a popular event around here:

I've never done it but one of my co-workers won the log rolling
competition a couple years ago.  He was the only competitor who had
spiked logging boots.... Back when I used to fell trees and cut our
firewood with frame and crosscut saws my wife tried to get me to enter
in the crosscut sawing competition, but I always chickened out.

Cheers,

Chris
