It's not easy getting to the top of a greasy pole

Trying to get to the top of a greasy pole in the South End

Greg Cook watched as the Boricua All Stars tried to clamber to the top of a greased pole at yesterday's Greased Pole Tournament at Inquilinos Boricuas en Acción’s annual Festival Betances. The group, who've done it before, tried eight times, but just couldn't quite make it this time.

Interesting -- in addition to Gloucester's Italian greasy pole event, there's also this Latino one.

They're not nearly as good as Greg's, and taken from further away (behind the yellow caution tape), but here are my photos.
