EPIC MOSH: SO make a nice retractable bridge a meeting area. Insert elephant. Under the bridge is a pit with a single central pillar and a retractable bridge to escape. 10 dwarves enter, 1 or less leave as you retract the bridge

The 50-yard pressurized water flow escape.  No-one's survived it yet, but that just means they're not trying hard enough!

Dwarven drinking contests result in forts with no booze left.

tallfred's stuff reminds me of the hunger games.
In fact, that should be the dorflympics. several gladiators have to survive in a giant arena untill all but one are dead.

I had an above ground garden built in the grounds of my castle and two young dwarves spent time socialising there over the summer and at the end of the summer they were in love. Remember those long summers of your childhood? That first kiss in the gardens while crossbows dwarves shoot goblins above your head? The rain of dead birds as the hunters get to work? Truly Spearhills is a paradise.

Since ballistae affect friendly targets, place two ballistae facing each other a long distance apart (at least 100 tiles). Set them to fire at the same time, and see which dorf hits the other first. This can be done in teams.

^I will be doing this.

You can even have competition between craftsdwarves. Set up two workshops an equal distance from raw material supply, and see who finishes their Construct Rock Mechanism 20 times first. Last place gets locked in and flooded with magma!

Haha Urist, bad time to go take a smoke break! Can't wait for you to get back behind those doors!

No, a dwarven drinking contest is "Who can drink the most water before his blood alcohol level drops too low?"

One male and one female child from each profession, watched gladly by the nobility and less so by the rest, with the family of the winner getting a free royal bedroom and royal dining room and such in an isolated area, with a *<<+golden cornocopia+>>* in the center, filled with supplies and weapons, and the arena filled with traps and the occasional monstrosity? Awesome. The only problem is getting them to kill each other.

Another idea: Mining race. Two miners are locked into a mine, racing to mine to the end and collapse the ceiling on the other's head before the other does the same to him. Old arenas are used to house the poorest or dwarves (e.g. a dormitory) or to store prisoners before you drop in dwarves for another sport.

I had an idea called the Fun House but unsure how it would work. All I know that it involves the circus and clowns.

Pump Stack Race, rig two pumps stacks to pump water/magma into a pressure plate that activates a spike trap., The loser gets impaled.

Dwarven golf:

Two bronze colossi compete to see who can punt a goblin the furthest.

Socks inspire the same sort of emotions in dwarfs that Helen of Troy inspired in the Achaean Greeks. Although it is said that Helen's face launched a thousand ships, socks have surely launched a million ultimately-fatal Store Owned Item tasks.

Maybe some Dwarven Paralympics? The 100 metre marathon for dwarves with a severed spine for example...

Thanks for the suggestion, but Number4 is correct: [...] it would be easier and more predictable to just be a racist.
