Scotch Whiskey & Caber Tossing

The Scots produce the finest single malted Scotch whiskey..
They have a sport  in Scotland called caber tossing where a man lifts a wooden pole that is over 19 feet tall and weighs about 175 lbs grabs it with his hands standing it upright and then runs and tosses it. 
I think there may be a connection between the consumption of Scotch Whiskey and Caber Tossing.
