Pole Vault Hall of Fame

Unread postby vault3rb0y » Wed May 24, 2006 9:01 pm

I was just curious if there was any place in the world that includes a pole vault hall of fame. Ive never heard of such a place, but i think there should be one!!

There's the 6 meter club http://www.polevaultpower.com/6mclub.php but that doesn't include any of the vaulters of the stiff pole era who should be in a hall of fame.

I think that's given to whatever retired vaulter they can coax down with free beer and a shared room.
