One of the champions in jumping, and his proud proprietor… Spectators in full concentration…


Official results of XVIth Frog Jumping Competition in Lokve, organized already in 1990. Twenty competing frogs, with their exotic names can be seen in the second column, and the names of respective proprietors in the third column. Note that the last frog is nicknamed Wolfgang, and the proprietor is Amadeus. Mozart would not mind.
