The origins of the sport are vague and hard to spot on Any map. A humourous but poorly cited article on Wikipedia claims that Wellie Throwing was invented in the Yorkshire town of Upperthong after a spat between two farmers at the pub. When one farmer ran from the pub, the other threw his Wellington boot to hit him, and thus the sport was created. Upperthong’s Welly Wanging festival has been held annually since.
The sport of gumboot throwing has grown in popularity in faming intensive nations, i.e. countries with lots of gumboots.
