Paywall.

I don't even want to think about "pole sports" for transgenders. As for the Olympics - just LOL.

Do the judges put their scores in their garter belts?

"...Patrick Baumann, president of GAISF said it was an “exciting time” for pole sports and added: “We will do everything within our remit to help them realise their full potential..."

I would be willing to donate a dollar to make this an Olympic sport. And another...and another...

Everyday it’s more like jesters and jezebels performing before the court. What’s next sword swallowing? Take a knee!

We’re talking about pole dancing as an Olympic sport now and the talk of the nation focuses on sexual harassment in Hollywood. Does anyone see how incongruous this is?

They tried to take wrestling out of the Olympics, but pole dancing will be added. Does Harvey Weinstein rule the world?

I suppose they had to come up with something to compete against the Brazillian womens beach volley ball team events.

This may lead to an AC/DC music revival.

Forget seedy clubs. Go to YouTube and you can find some incredibly athletic routines, and even more cringe worthy fails.

An amazingly high percentage of the fails are from what appear to be cheap poles - basically flimsy vertical shower-curtain rod like poles held in place (at least briefly) by friction. Moral of the story: ladies, buy good equipment!

As for making it an Olympic sport??? I don't know. The engineer in me prefers sports/contests that are less subjective - where there is a definitive time, distance, placement, weight...

My favorite Pole dance is the mazurka.

The Olympics died sometime back in the ‘80s.

And get off of my lawn!

Pole dancing in line to become Olympic sport

I think the Poles will have an advantage.

Sure the modern individual events get all the attention, but what about team Pole dancing?

“Tiffany Mercedes from the U.S. team has finished her dismount, and here are the judges’ scores: $10, $10, $10, $10, and $1 from the Russian judge.”
