The Torciata Easter

Pietralunga (PG) - A Pietralunga Sunday, April 20, 2014 renewed the tradition of the race with eggs. The "Tocciata" is an ancient game that takes place on Easter morning in the square of Pietralunga.

To play you have to stand in a circle holding a boiled egg and beat the egg will turn the opponent; the player who stays with the egg intact continues the tour, the other is eliminated. In the past the idea was to bring home the greatest number of eggs, and now is assigned a symbolic prize.
