The Nenana Ice Classic is an annual event in Nenana, Alaska, where participants guess the exact time the river ice will break up. A 30-foot tripod is placed on the ice, and when it falls, it stops a clock, indicating the time of breakup. The person who guesses closest to the actual time wins a prize.
