Special Olympics Plane Pull 2018

It’s the ultimate tug-of-war competition to benefit a great cause! A team of 20 people battle it out with a 90-ton plane at the annual Plane Pull at O’Hare International Airport. The event helps raise funds for the Special Olympics in Illinois.

The winner is determined by which team can move the aircraft 12 feet in the fewest number of seconds. This year, more than 100 teams participated, helping to raise more than $186,000.

Team Orange Crush was composed of 28 dedicated (and STRONG) Milhouse overachievers who got up bright an early to wrestle with the plane, helping raise more than $1425 dollars for the Special Olympics, and bragging rights for pulling the beast in 7.38 seconds!
