Stosh and Siggy Lumbowski – and they’re getting pretty tired of it.

Seriously, they are cabers.

I’ve been to many Higlands games. It takes alot of strength and skill to toss cabers. It’s like throwing a telephone pole!

I’ve seen caber tossing in real life… The physicality of it has to be seen firsthand to be appreciated.
