Robbie Sbeghen holds a yabby to be bid on.

The entrants prepare themselves for the big race.

Things get off to a slow start.

The crowd cheer on their favourite competitor.
IN TRUE Aussie style, the Walloon Hotel hosted yabby races and a best dressed bogan competition to celebrate Australia Day.
The crowd cheered on their favourite crustacean as photographer Lyle Radford captured all the action, while pub boss Stewart Gibson could be seen sporting a mullet wig.
There were great prizes to win in the raffle and tucker available at mates’ rates.
