What was your favourite moment from the International Plowing Match? Rick Mercer Made a Visit and Tried Square Dancing with a Tractor

With the Eligin - St. Thomas International Plowing Match over for another season, what did you take away from the event? What was your favourite part?

 

Rick Mercer is certainly always entertaining. This is him square dancing with a tractor. The show should air sometime in the next 2 - 3 weeks.
