I caught the bike polo bug in NYC. I saw a tournament of teams from Chicago to Ottawa to Brooklyn.
I just took the initiative to buy 4 ski poles and tubing. I'm bring all the equipment we need. Just bring your bike and lets learn to do this shit!
Logan Park
6:30 PM
EVERY FUCKING WEEK starting this sunday!

Let's fucking do it. I'll be there.
I'll bring my mallet and I'll try and get a hold of our old mallets from last year.

I just went to the hardware store and asked for "ABS" tubing. It's black, light and stiff. Does anyone want to lend me a power drill?

FWIW, it might be too late but whatever:
At home Depot and the like they sell plain broom handles, without threads. The ends are tapered, and they worked well with a liberal amount of epoxy along with the croquet heads that were used last year.

If you made them from Josh, they've probably decayed by now, unless you did a good job of preserving him first. If they were sweet, it sounds like you got your recipies mixed up and candied him instead of pickling...
