A Festivus pole is just a plain ol aluminum pole...
...I know because I have a Festivus T-shirt, yep I'm cool like that.

I got a lot of problems with you people.
Like this.
You too can have a Festivus pole for about $30.
One of the best Seinfeld episodes...
...and that's saying something.

Thanks, but what do you do with it? The pole, I mean.

That link R broken....try this one.
Don't forget to celebrate on December 23rd.....
The Festivus Pole
The tradition begins with a bare aluminum pole, which Frank praises for its "very high strength-to-weight ratio." During Festivus, an unadorned aluminum pole is displayed, apparently in opposition to the commercialization of highly decorated Christmas trees, and because the holiday's creator, Frank Costanza, "find[s] tinsel distracting." Local customs vary and you may be able to decorate your pole with non-threatening plain decorations, or ordinary green garland.
The Airing of Grievances
At the Festivus dinner -- a meal featuring non-holiday comfort food -- each participant tells friends and family all of the instances where they disappointed him or her that year.
The Feats of Strength
The head of the family tests his or her strength against one participant of the head's choosing. Festivus is not considered over until the head of the family has been pinned to the ground. A participant is allowed to decline to attempt to pin the head of the family only if they have something better to do instead.
Awesome!

"You, Kruger. My son tells me your company stinks! You couldn't smooth a silk sheet if you had a hot date with a babe... I lost my train of thought."
Ahahahaha...I like it!
Thanks for the promotion of festivuspoles.com. Also critical to note that we're Sooner fans -- at least by marriage. My wife is originally from OKC and a major fan. Congratulations to Sam Bradford and onto the Championship game.
So, who has to try to pin Dean to the ground this year?
... that's not food.
It has a very high strength to weight ratio.
...and it requires no decoration.

We got "Festivus Poles" to post here at SoonerFans! Another Festivus miracle!
It's a Festivus Miracle!
It's been a while since I've been to Norman, but back in the day you could have taken the pole to Walter Mitty's to get it broke in good.
Some people like the smell of a tree at Christmas...for the rest of us, the smell of Festivus!
Sorry, that was wrong right there...
