Flag the Pole

So last night in my pursuit to find the end of the world wide web I stumbled across this magnificent piece of  entertainment. This reminded of a dude named Dominique, his crew, and a wonderful young lady trying to earn a couple crinkled George Washington's at a little strip joint off the A1A in coastal Florida.

Back in late 2003 early 2004 I worked at a Best Buy in Tyler, Tx. My Fam MikeBransa worked there with me and Dominique worked there as well selling T.V.'s. Well Dominique always talked about his click - Flag that Pole click. Hahahah.. I asked that fool probly a hundred times what that shit meant. I mean I had an idea, but I never really could grasp the significance behind it. Dominique was a huge ass motherfucker too, like 6'5 400 big, and he would just giggle when I would ask this man what Flag that Pole meant.

Fast Forward a couple anos. It is like April/May 2007 MikeBransa and my fatass are living/working in Florida. One night we sneak out into some nightly activities with a couple co-workers and we end up at this strip club off theA1A across the street from the Atlantic Ocean. (I hope you know where this is going) We got our strip game tight too. FRSH georgie's, some goose to get loose, and a nice spot in between the stage and some college ladies out to have a good time that night. As the night creeps towards day, some casual flirting between Us and the college ladiesis getting nice, were sitting there and this lovely little beauty struts onto the stage and (I have to stop right now to say that in Florida strip clubs are not all nude like Texas, unfortunate I know.) I am not really paying her too much mindcause I am trying to get a kiss, rub, tug, something from one of these drunk girls next to me. When all of a sudden like an Olympic Gymnast this pretty little thing flings herself onto the "pole" and proceeds to give a performance deservingonly the GOLD medal. Towards the end she works her way to the top of the pole and holds on real tight with her legs and then to mine and MikeBrana's amazement she FUCKING FLAGS THE POLE!!! She looks like a Flag flowing in the wind. I mean I was pretty drunk at this point, but I was amazed. I knew. I knew why Dominique could never tell me what it meant, that I had to experience that moment, and take it in, in all its glory..

Watch this video, it gets really good around 1:47. A warm fuzzy feeling came over me when I saw it, and it reminded of that wonderful night in Florida when I experienced a "Flag that Pole" moment.

Before you ask, cause I know you did it too, I reached for the Coach wallet and tried to throw money at the screen. Had a couple benny franks to throw at that glorious display of grace, and athleticism...
