I think part of the reason the MTA expanded to those double poles was to stop them 💀

I’m all for people getting their hustle bag. I just would like to not run the risk of getting clocked in the face by a teenager practicing his stripper pole maneuvers.

Have you ever seen anyone get injured or hit by a showtime? I haven’t.

Actually yea, a few times. Lol. If you're doing wild spinning moves on a pole in the middle of a half-packed train, there's no surprise if you accidentally hit someone or bump into them. I'm not saying that the kids did it on purpose, but they also lacked the common sense to move to a less packed car.

It’s more common for them to injure themselves tbh

I believe that. It doesn't look like an easy sport/hobby. Most of them are super impressive.

Yeh honestly if nyc really cared about culture, they could make it a city sport contest lol. With a mock-up train cart.
