Who is the Strongest Man at the Fair?

We tend to think of New Jersey as a urban-sprawl suburb of New York,but some parts are quite rural, with rolling hills, forests, and farms.  Augusta, about 60 miles northwest of New York (five hours with traffic) even hosts the Sussex County Farm and Horse Show every summer during the New Jersey State Fair.

Every year since 2011, they have held the "Strongest Man at the Fair" contest, with the prize money donated to the Domestic Abuse and Assault Intervention Services.  Contestants lift giant dumbbells, toss 30-pound kegs, and lift a car (a Buick, since a Buick dealership sponsors the event).

Women were added to the event in 2015
