Festival attendees wait to start the 49th annual Naha Great Tug-of-War Festival Festival Oct. 13, 2019 at Naha City, Okinawa, Japan. The festival attracts thousands of participants each year who come to pull the rope for either the East or West. This tradition traces back to the 17th century when the rulers from the East and West side of Okinawa would come together for the competition. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Brennan J.
