the panjat pinang game.

People groups into a team of 3-6 persons each, to attempt a climb of slippery poles for gifts and prizes on top of the pole. It’s really quite fun to watch.

Happy Indonesian 65th Independence Day

They do this at Barrio Fiesta too, just not with bikes and palm trees. Its usually a greased pole with a piece of paper at the top; organizations donate money for the prize. The most I've seen was like $500 for the prize money. However, the winner (if any) gets only have and the other half is divided between the rest of the participants. Plus you need to be 13 years old or below to participate. If there's no winner, the money is distributed evenly to all participants.

No, they knew he was gonna make it to the top, and they expect him to share.

pretty hard to clean grease if you ever tried. takes a while. thats what i thought at first too but remembered it takes more than a rag to wipe it off.
