    This group of eight men and women found something unique and exciting to do with their antique John Deere and Farmall tractors...

    They square dance with them!
    Also, this:

    Maybe they can get this group to perform the music at the dance?

    I personally think that they should use a John Deere as the "male" and an Allis Chalmers as the "female".

    Square dance with John and "Alice"

    (It doesn't hurt that my grandfather had an Allis of similar vintage. )

    I go to this every year. It's about 1-1/2 hours from Spokane. Middle of wheat field country. VERY fun event. Just have to be careful with drinking and bringing a designated driver. The WSP hang out at the on-ramps to the main highway and nail DUI drivers.

    Another fun event in the general area is the sprint boat races in Webb's Slough St John WA.

    I'm going to this event August 25th. Will take a ton of photos and some videos. Nothing like +1000hp 14' jet boats ripping through a tiny race course.

    Also, bonus tractor square dancing video:

    Not as awesome as the Corvette ZR-1 demolition derby, but close.

    pretty neat.

    Interesting too. I would assume, due to the culture and location in the US, that these folks wouldnt be very understanding let alone pleased to see two men dance together. Thats nice, good for them
