i was walking around in LES (new york's Lower East Side) today with carrie, and encountered the coolest urbanized version of a sport i'd ever seen. men & women on bicycles playing polo with augmented metal canes... like the ones that visually impaired people use -- they affixed a metal piece to the end of it, as a "mallet" - and used a tennis ball. cones were set up as goals. gotta love the ingenuity!

sorry for two comments, but to be clear the mallets are ski poles cut to size with plastic gas pipe for heads. the ball is a Franklin street hockey ball and players are at The Pit every Sunday.
