Kade Verrette is a greased pole climbing expert.
Verrett said, “I’ve competed five or six times, and I’ve won twice. It’s a 15- to 20-foot metal pole covered in axel grease, and you climb in three to four man teams. Whoever gets to the top first wins. Some teams take a little while and others take just a few seconds to get a man up the pole.”
