All kinds of stuff on display! Some guy brings his team of oxen (massive, widespread horns) every year, and to my untrained eye, the animals look like they could weigh about a ton each!!!
A friend of mine, a whisp of a woman, works for Hale Farm and Village (a restored early 19th century homestead, is the driver of a pair of oxen. And they do weigh over a ton each, around 2200 lbs. if I remember correctly. She drives them with a long stick and a tickle under the chin. Could PM you a picture if you're interested.
