  Speaker 2: And like you said, this is more special than the Olympics.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Who needs the NC two A of the Olympics. It
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: costs a whole lot of money. You left with a
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: bunch of complexes. You paid for that. No one uses anymore.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: And this does not require much beyond I guess just
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: some space and some beer steins and of course the
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: beer that goes in it. But this is not for novices.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: This actually is a difficult, difficult, challenging thing specifically. Okay,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: let's talk about first the US Steinholding Association. Is that's
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: actually a thing and it exists. Is this a global organization?
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: It's a national here to the United States.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, hence the name.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Yep, So those German guys started with them.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: In twenty twenty one, we did the original State of
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: Ohio Championship.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: We've run it ever since then. Now you know, we've
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: kind of moved around venue to venue.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: The last two years we've been down at the beautiful
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: multi million dollar more Line Longerhouse facility with Greg Hartman,
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: and he really helps us put.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: On a show. It's fantastic. Well, and then we got
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: go ahead.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Are you team double them again this year for the event?
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Correct? Correct?
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: We did the state championship twenty twenty four, twenty twenty five,
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: and then we put our hat in the ring because
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: there are other states that wanted the national championship, but well,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: and we were fortunate enough to land that here to
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: bring that to the Cincinnati and Ben Huffman was a big.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Part of that with the Cincinnati Regional Sports Commission.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Appreciate Ben your work on that. And of course, did
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: our German heritage have anything to do with or a
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: lot to do with our getting this championship here this
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: coming up?
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that to a degree, it does. I mean, you know,
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: they look at everything, you know, Willie and I and
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: the German guys, and then obviously with Greg, you know,
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: we've really done a good job putting on the state championship.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: So coupled that with the German heritage here in Cincinnati,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, it's kind of a win win,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: and how can you go into place else?

• 4:57
  Speaker 1: tell you because it is my version of the final
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: day of the week. Since I'm taking some vacation time,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: I like to talk about this fun event. I would
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: to find out. Actually what the competition involves is where
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: a world record for this kind of thing? Let's pause?
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: If you guys don't mind them, want to bring it
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: right Ben, You've read about it in Obscure sor Sports Quarterly,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: you watch it on the OCHO or of course talking
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: about the Steinholding events and coming up on the twenty
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: second of this month, the first Super Bowl of Steinholding,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty five US National steinholding championships joining me
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: to talk about this. One of those Germans guys you
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: can find them on Facebook, Mike Heisel and Ben Huffman,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: who's the executive director of the cincinn Regional Sports Commission.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: They've all teamed up along with some other folks like,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: for example, the more Line House and since ant Chris
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Kindlemark to do this championship, which we're all going to
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: want to attend. Before we can break down the events
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: in the order of things that are taking place on
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the twenty second, guys, I got to ask, is there
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: first a regulation? It has to be a regulation sort
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: of size weight stein?
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Correct? Correct?
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: This your typical one leader glass dimpled stein, so those
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: all weigh the same approximately when it's full of beer.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: It's five pounds.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: So if your listeners aren't familiar with this, I know
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: I've been on before talking about it.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: You have to.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: You're like, you have the leader stein sitting in front
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: of you on the table. The competitors standing behind the table.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: They have to stand upright, pick up the beer steining
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: with either their left or right hand and hold it
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: straight out. They're not allowed it been back.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: They you know, can't move the stein.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: It has to be you know, pretty much arm straight
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: holding that leader of beer steined out. One interesting thing
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: about this is Kim Planner has won the state championship
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: here in Ohio the past five years that we've done it.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: He also won this year, and he is qualified.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: He's representing he's from Cincinnati here and he's representing more
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Line Loggerhouse in the national championship.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: So come down and cheer Kim.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: On and hopefully he can bring him the national championship
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: here to Cincinnati.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Well do you And I hate to put you on
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the spot, but I got to ask because I'm looking
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: at what is described, at least in terms of the
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: artificial intelligence response. I got on Google the US record,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: what is his steinholding time? Do you recall by anybody chance,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Kim usually.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Goes between nine and twelve minutes.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: They've had some people in Texas go for as long
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: as you know, twenty twenty four minutes. But with the
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: US steineholding but they're pretty strict on the regulations on
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: your form, so they don't, you know, allow you to
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: deviate as some of the other organizations do. So some
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: of the organizations are looking for time and they don't
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: really care about form. So the US Stineholding Association's pretty
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: strict on the judging with your form.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: That's great that they have these kind of rules. It
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: just cracks me up, guys, it really does. Now there
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: are there are steinholding or actually stein caring events, and
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I noted that at least online they say the Guinness
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: War Record for the most steins carried over forty meters,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: and you mentioned they're five pounds each. Twenty nine steins
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: is the record for men and nineteen steins for women.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: And that's a carrying. I just can't imagine that because
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at photographs of these guys with all these
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: bunched up steins. That's that can't be easy, but neither
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: can the competition you guys are doing, so it's not
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: a carry contest. Moving over to the twenty second, I
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: see that things start kicking kicked off around ten am.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Walk my listeners through what they're going to be able
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: to see and participate in during the day.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: So we are going to have the FC Byron match
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: on from you know, SC Byron's Munich soccer team.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: We're going to have that in the fest tent.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: Greg is putting up a huge festent like we said
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: this takes place during the opening weekend of Cincinnati Chris Kenelmark.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: So I mean that's an event in and of itself that.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: You don't want to miss because they have German booze
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: and food, and you know, there's a bunch of stuff going.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: On with the Christmas market.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: You know, come down to your Christmas shopping and enjoy
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: the stein Otle. But we have the Byron Match starting
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: at nine point thirty. We also have a riverfront volts March,
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: and volts March is just a leisurely walk. You can
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: sign up to do that. It's five dollars per person
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: to walk. It's about like a five k on that.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Then noon to two we had the Byron Games. We
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: did that when FC Byron came to town, and since
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: we're running the Byron Match on TV, we're.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Going to do that afterward. If your listeners would like
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: to participate in that, they can do that.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: This is great.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: There before noon, there's three events. It's a beer decko flip,
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: you know, like the little beer coasters. You stack those
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: up and you flip those and catch them, and whoever
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: catches the most without it hitting the table wins that event.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Well, we're going to do it as a team event,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: and then we have that Hommer slogging that's where there's
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: a stump and you take a hammer and drive the
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: nail into the stump. Few of us hits wins that.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: And then we also have a team steinholding, so you
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: don't really you can get a little.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Bit of a taste of it, being it's a team sport,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: you know, the one person goes as long.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: As they can with the stein.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: When they're done, they set it down and their teammate
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: behind them kicks it up and goes on. And then
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: the winner of that will get bragging rights for the
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: Fyron Championship.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Then after that, two to three we have a ceremonial
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: kaya of course you do, of course we do. Yeah,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: of course right.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: Greg is drilling his Chris Kendall beer, so we're gonna

  Speaker 3: tap that down at Morelane.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: That's exclusive to Moreline Lockerhouse.

• 11:42
  Speaker 1: that event, help my listeners out because it's gonna be
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: a hell of a good time. Ben Huffing's been kind
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: of quiet there as a Cincinnati Regional Sports Commission executive director?
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Do you market this kind of thing? I mean, there's
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: always little things that point out that Cincinnati is a
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: unique place, it's a fun place. You might want to
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: investigate it. This is such a fun event, and I
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: know it's it's not necessarily done in Jess, but the
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: super Bowl of Steinholding. Is this a good marketing effort
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: for you? And what other kinds of things do you
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: engage in throughout the year since a regional Sports Commission
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: executive director to put Cincinnati on the mac, Ben.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, thank you so much so. The Cincinna Sports Commission
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: started just this summer. We're brand new. We're six months in.
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: First week on the job. Greg Hartman called me and
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: talked about this event and our concept here is to
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: kind of own something on the banks of the Ohio
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: that is a tradition, you know, for the city, and
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: there is a sports component, so we got involved. We
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: look at an event like Nathan's Hot Dog, like look
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: at what they've done out there, that's been a recurring
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: event that happens every year where people come in and
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: check it out. So we're trying to help blow this
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: up with those German guys, with the Moreland lagger House,
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: with the Steinholding folks truly make this a unique opportunity.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: And then obviously on the back end from the Sports
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: commission side, we do all sorts of amateur events. So
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: we have a big fencing event coming to the Convention
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: Center in February, a volleyball tournament come to the Commission
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: Center in March, and then we're going after some large,
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: high impact events like the Rugby World Cup that just
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: got announced as we're an applicant city now for that,
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: so we are going up to those large impact events,
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: but unique opportunities like this to showcase our city as
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: a place that can host large events helps us long
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: term go after other things as well.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I suppose once that Convention Center work it's done,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: that's going to even create greater opportunities for folks to
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: consider Cincinnati.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's great, and that's actually a good tie in
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: with this event. So the Elm Street Plaza opens that weekend,
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: so the ice rink's moving from Fountain Square to Elm
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: Street Plaza. You know, this weekend, while the Steinholding's going
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: on Sunday, we have the Bengals at one, we have
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: Messy coming to play FC at five on Sunday, We've
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: got Steinholding on Saturday, We've got the Winterhouse at Fountain
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: Square opening and just the Cities Beer Live. That whole
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: weekend really showcase what we can do as a community
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: to host guests and I think help us both on
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: the tourism side, but then on the sports mussion side
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: as well.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and can I ask you FC Cincinnati. I'm a
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: no soccer football fan of I. I mean, that's just me.
• 13:59
