In Mexico, only one person sunbathes: the wrestlers sweat in sawdust instead of on the beach

We know it from football players, skiers and tennis professionals. Once the season is over, sports fans get a full load of holiday photos on social media. The athletes recover from a long season on picturesque beaches or in luxury resorts and give their fans at their stations a little insight into their well-deserved break.

However, when it comes to swinging, everything happens a little differently. Although the Unspunnen Festival at the end of August was the absolute highlight of the season, most wrestlers made no move to hang up their pants in the following two weeks. On the contrary.

Autumn festivals popular despite little prestige

Although the fan parade and prestige at Wolzenalpwickelet in St. Gallischen, Chemihütte-Schwinget in the Bernese Oberland or Herbstwickelet Mümliswil SO, to name just a few, are very small compared to an Unspunnen, the bad guys are in the sawdust there too.

For Marcel Bieri (28), from Central Switzerland, the small festivals in autumn are just part of life. “Things usually go very well in the fall. And because I wasn’t completely satisfied with my performance at the Unspunnen, I want to do a few more autumn festivals anyway, so that I can start winter with a good feeling,” he explains. The holidays have yet to come for the primary school teacher. We are leaving for Bali with my girlfriend when the season ends at the end of September.

Even Samuel Giger (25), who celebrated the biggest victory of his career with his victory over the Unspunnen Schwinget, subsequently ended his season. For example, he participated in the National Gymnastics Day and promptly won.

The Bernese Matthias Aeschbacher (31), who had to share his two wreath festival victories in the Bernese Cantonal and the Northwestern Swiss this season, still achieved the only victory on the Lueg in the Emmental and was able to obtain the winning muni, which his brother had it handy bred, leave it in the stable.

Among the thirty best wrestlers, there is only one who really has both feet on the ground at the moment. Unspun final participant Adrian Walther (22) treated himself to a stopover in Mexico with his girlfriend and at least spreads a bit of a bad holiday feeling with a beach photo.
