Thousands of Bikers Watch Dwarf Wrestling in Dallas Center

A wrestling bout between dwarfs - which drew scrutiny earlier this summer from town leaders - went on as planned Tuesday when RAGBRI rolled through Dallas Center.

The match was organized by a local bar, The Longest Yard, according to the Bike Iowa website.

The stop was not just about wrestling though. Riders ate everything from pork chops and turkey legs to shaved ice and pie, danced in the streets, and downed some brewed beverages.

One out of state rider even decided to run for mayor of a small Iowa town because she loves the event so much.
