Tug of War is a popular Earth game of skill and physical strength enjoyed even by the Gigans. Two teams (or individuals) are placed at either ends of a long rope. The goal is to move the center of the rope beyond a designated area (typically 3 feet in either direction). Each team then pulls as hard as they can, applying forces such as leverage, brute strength and sudden inertia until they win or lose. The strongest team doesn't always win, due to the different methods you can use in order to apply force in the desired direction.
