2011 Special Olympics Illinois Plane Pull - Now in its 3rd year, this crazy contest on Sept. 24th, pitted men and women against machine as teams of 20 play Tug-of-War with a UPS Boeing 757 aircraft (weighing more than 180,000 lbs) at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago. THATS RIGHT... the plane weighs more than 90 tons!
Each team raises a minimum of $1,000 ($50 per person for a team of 20) to participate. This year, 26 teams participated, raising nearly $60,000
