(30,676 posts)my hubby has climbed the Eiger 1000 times--in his mind! I think it's a great sport for films, but I am scared to watch most of them!

(50,561 posts)It is a very simple game: A beheaded goat is placed on the ground and the players are all on horseback. All one needs to do to win the game is to pick up the dead goat and haul it across the goal line. Whoever does it wins the game.
There are, of course, a few complications...there are hundreds of other people on the field trying to do the same thing, the goal line is a mile away, and buzkashi has absolutely no rules so if an opponent wants to kill you to get the goat away, he can.
