Belfast Women Set Guinness World Record for Most Synchronized Spitting

An Olympic-Style Event Puts the Town on the Global Stage

BELFAST, TN - Move over, the Rockettes-Belfast, Tennessee, has officially broken the Guinness World Record for "Most People Participating in a Synchronized Spit."

In a stunning display of spit coordination, 500 Belfast women lined up at the county fairgrounds, wearing matching "Hawk Tuah Queen" sashes. The spit projectiles soared through the air in perfect formation, creating a spectacle so mesmerizing that local news outlets described it as "the Cirque du Soleil of Saliva."

The Guinness judges, visibly impressed (and slightly disgusted), confirmed the official record.

Belfast Mayor Randy Tuckerson is now petitioning the Olympics to recognize "Spit Synchronized Freestyle" as a competitive sport.

"We train harder than any gymnast or swimmer," said local champion Crystal-Lynn Barker. "We just happen to be covered in dip spit while we do it."

Acknowledge:

Belfast, Tennessee’s 788 residents live in 266 households, averaging 2.69 people each. Its history kicks off in 1836, dubbed after Belfast, Ireland, with commerce blooming by 1838. The 1952 tornado, an F1 anomaly, killed three and injured 166, etching resilience into its DNA. Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" fame has flipped the script, birthing a $500K industry. Once 61.54% blue-collar, Belfast now hums with entrepreneurial buzz—9.62% of workers are self-employed. This shift from farming roots to viral riches shows a town embracing its quirks while honoring its past.
