This is that cool game where you are buried up to your armpits in snow and you have to dig your way out. First one out of the hole wins!

9. Snow Shoveling

Just shoveling piles of snow, but as a professional sport. And with corgis. Why haven't they thought of this?

10. Snowball Rolling

Just like a normal running race, except not, because you're pushing snowballs.

11. Paw Shoveling

Like shoveling your way out of your house, but instead of a shovel you use your paws. In fact, shovels are cheating! If cats can do it, we can do it.

12. Snow Denying

Contestants pretend it's summer and stay outdoors for as long as possible. The last one standing is the winner! It's not for everyone.
