With the opening day celebrations underway in Beijing, we want to know about the games and sports near you. Does your community host an annual potato sack race? Are you a competitive eating champ? In March, iReporter kristih shared with us her family's experiences at the '2008 Frozen Dead Guy Days' in Nederland, Colorado. "It's weird, funky and quirky and we really wanted to do it, finally...we can now say, we did it," said kristih, who's real name is Kris Hazelton. Alongside some of her closest friends and family, Hazelton and her team, all sporting gorilla suits, competed in the festival's "Coffin Races ." With help from her fellow gorillas, Hazelton raced over snow and ice to the finish line carrying her 15-year-old daughter in a fake coffin. Hazelton, the owner and editor of a local newspaper, was there again when 6,500 rubber ducks hit a river in Estes Park, Colorado. The annual event raised over $128,000 for local charities! If you take part in local sporting events, either traditional or one of a kind, upload your photos or videos of the games and share them with the world!
