- A potato race is one of several similar racing events where contestants compete to collect a number of potatoes as quickly as possible. Participants may run on foot or be mounted on horseback, depending on the style of race. It is not clear precisely when or where the potato race originated. Potato races of both types were most popular in Australia, England, Scotland, the United States of America and Wales. Potato races were commonly held at community events such as county fairs, rodeos, picnics, and track and field meets from at least the middle of the 19th century until approximately the 1930s. Potato races run on foot were generally considered events for children, and were often held in schools as playground games or part of physical education, or at local events such as fairs. Mounted events were particularly prevalent in the Southwestern United States. Individual mounted events usually consisted of individuals competing to be the fastest at collecting potatoes along a structured course. Team-based events had no defined course, and were notable for their violence. Players were permitted almost every possible tactic for interfering with the opposing team, including dragging other riders off their horses. Potato races, both on-foot and mounted, are occasionally still held at local gatherings or riding competitions today, although the violent mounted version has died out. (en)
- Balap kentang adalah salah satu dari beberapa acara balap di mana para kontestan bersaing untuk mengumpulkan sejumlah kentang secepat mungkin. Peserta dapat bermain balapan ini dengan berjalan kaki atau menunggang kuda, tergantung pada gaya balapan. Tidak jelas kapan atau di mana balap kentang berasal. Terdapat dua jenis balap kentang yang paling populer di Australia, Inggris, dan Amerika Serikat, yaitu berjalan kaki dan berkuda. Balap kentang biasanya diadakan di acara-acara komunitas seperti pekan raya daerah, rodeo, piknik, dan pertemuan di trek dan lapangan setidaknya sejak pertengahan abad ke-19 hingga sekitar tahun 1930-an. Balap kentang dengan berjalan kaki umumnya dianggap sebagai acara untuk anak-anak, dan sering diadakan di sekolah sebagai permainan untuk taman kanak-kanak atau bagian dari pendidikan jasmani, atau di acara lokal seperti pameran. Acara balap kentang dengan berkuda sangat lazim di Amerika Serikat Barat Daya. Acara berkuda individu biasanya terdiri dari individu yang bersaing untuk menjadi yang tercepat dalam mengumpulkan kentang di sepanjang jalur terstruktur. Acara yang diadakan secara berkelompok biasanya tidak memiliki aturan yang jelas, dan terkenal karena adanya kekerasan di dalamnya. Pemain diizinkan menggunakan setiap taktik yang dapat mengganggu tim lawan, termasuk menyeret pengendara lain dari kuda mereka. Balapan kentang, baik dengan berjalan kaki maupun berkuda, kadang-kadang masih diadakan pada pertemuan lokal atau kompetisi berkuda saat ini, meskipun versi berkuda yang mengandalkan kekerasan telah dihapus.
