From 1900 to 1920 the tug of war was also an official Olympic event. Great Britain won the most medals (5) followed by Sweden, the U.S. and a mixed team, each winning two. Great Britain won all three medals in 1908. Back then you could enter a lot more athletes/teams in an event than is allowed today.
