Summary
In 1976, Coors Distributing shocked Spokane with a 27,000-square-foot warehouse, bringing their legendary, hard-to-get beer to town—thanks to new brewing power in Colorado. Meanwhile, back in 1926, Spokane hosted a wild bicycle festival at Coeur d’Alene Park, complete with safety demos, a parade, and a bizarre plank-balancing contest where the winner snagged a gold watch. And in Wisconsin, a local hero named William Delyea stunned crowds as World Champion Log Roller—rolling logs on roller skates. From beer to bizarre competitions, Spokane’s quirky history proves community spirit and wild contests have always been part of the story.
