Ever gotten so drunk at a bar you danced not on the bar top, but on a pillar? Ever done it so many times you actually forced the owner to re-arrange decor to prevent you from doing it again? Meet Ensenada local, Garcia Ocejo. This globe is mounted on a wooden pillar at the bar at Hussong’s Enseanda. It was placed there in the mid 1960s, because Garcia, who was a dentist in Ensenada, would get drunk, jump up on the small pole in the bar and dance and sing Greneda. The globe was mounted on the pole, to prevent Dr. Ocejo’s antics. The photo below is an actual picture of one of Garcia’s performance.
