Saf’kaan palosebo or greased bamboo climbing


MALUNGON, Sarangani (October 8, 2011) – Boys try their luck at the palosebo that caught the interest of merrymakers during the recent Saf’kaan (food) Festival in barangay Malandag. Palosebo or greased bamboo climbing (from Spanish words greased stick) is a traditional game usually played during a town fiesta. A long and straight bamboo pole is greased and polished to make it smooth and slippery. Before it is set upright, a small bag containing the prize is tied at the end of the pole.
