There should have been a printed weight limit

There is, but it's written on the pad at the top by the ceiling.

That is beyond Rubenesque. Now I want a Ruben sandwich... Damnit.

But seriously, the poles they sell at spencers are rated for 150-200, IIRC

I have some friends with a pole like that. It was discovered that the guys actually new how to pole dance better than most of the women.

The response: "Because guys spend a lot more interest in pole dancing."

Ending one pain with another.

In reply to Salanis:

Something like that happened to a girl I knew once... but she was in a club working. The ambulance took her out on a backboard... Turned out she eventually had to have two vertibrae fused in the lower part of her neck. She still dances, just can't do pole tricks anymore.

Actually, the one trick I liked to do was hold my body off the ground horizontally with just my arms. I figure that was sufficiently manly.

Pics, or it didn't happen...

Not good enough to do the full "Blowing in the wind", but this ain't that easy, either.

Wow, I'm not even going to ask why you have a pole in your living room...

Obviously because he always wanted to be a fireman.

...and work hen parties.
