What is a Tractor Pull?
A tractor pull is a competition in which tractors of different sizes and models are hooked up to a sled and must pull it as far as they can. The sled is designed to become progressively heavier as it is pulled, making it more difficult for the tractors to continue pulling. The winner is the tractor that pulls the sled the farthest.
Tractor pulls have been around for decades and were originally a way for farmers to test the power and performance of their tractors. Today, tractor pulls are a popular spectator sport and are held at fairs, festivals, and other events across the country.
