itself.
In
the tournament, 2 well-known
world backgammon champions will
play a full match on the huge
acre-sized field. By
communicating with walkie
talkies, the champions will use a
helicopter to toss the dice and a
staff to move the checkers. The
checkers to be used are 3 feet in
diameter.

which are valued at 1,000 Euro.
The backgammon dice are custom
made out of a special inflatable
material to withstand the impact
of the fall.

Quentin Smith who has crossed
desert and reached Arctic
territories in extreme conditions
