A World Record attempt is just one of a number of quirky events today.
The second day of the National Ploughing Championships in Ratheniska will see wellies flying through the air and plenty of muck.
Macra na Feirme's wellie throwing Guinness World Record attempt is among the many unusual items on the agenda for Day two.
Rubber boots are essential for those heading to the field, however the rain is expected ease for the remaining two days.
Assistant Managing Director with the National Ploughing Association, Anna Marie McHugh, says she's hopeful proceedings will be less weather affected today:
Site Coordinator for the event Noel Dunne says there are a few quirky events and stalls the public can visit:
These volunteers are anticipating another busy day, whatever the weather:
With 995 people throwing wellies in Laois, the world record has officially been broken by Macra na Feirme.
President of the organisation, Elaine Houlihan says she is delighted with their efforts:
The Ploughing has plenty of machinery, but also there's some more unique stands.
At the Diocese of Kildare and Leighlin's stall, they're looking to find out Ireland's favourite saint.
These people at the National Ploughing Championships told Aoife Kearns who they pray to, and why:
