Kok boru is Kyrgyz version of buzkashi
Kok boru is played with a freshly decapitated goat
When horse kicks you is bad
The object is to drag and lift the roughly 30kg carcass into a “taikazan”, a circular goal that looks like a shallow well, more times than your opponent
Not anyone can lift goat from goal
Scoring
Stealing the “ball”
Game lasts for three 20-minute periods
Catch me if you can
The winning team receives the goat as a prize to eat afterwards
And what do you mean about that 🙂
