by USA Wrestling



There were many reasons why hundreds of people participated in the #GetYolked4Rio Challenge. Some are athletes and others are supporters of wrestling.


This is the interview of 9-year-old Huggy Williams and his reasoning for doing the #GetYolked4Rio Challenge. His father, Robert, conducted the interview.

Me: They want to know how long you've been wrestling.
Huggy: This is my second year, but my first year making it to states.
Me: What made you decide to do the Get Yolked challenge?
Huggy: I saw Reece (Humphrey) do it and thought it looked like fun.
Me: You are a Reece fan, huh?
Huggy: Yeah, he is AWESOME!  He is always doing cool tricks and stuff that I try and do too.  Plus he is an awesome wrestler and coach.  And he's a Buckeye.
Me: Do you know why you want to help support USA wrestling?
Huggy: To help the wrestlers from the USA win and to keep wrestling in the Olympics.
Me: Why would anyone ever let their sisters crack eggs on their head?
Huggy: We thought it was funny.  And they've probably earned it.
