Hola… May I drag you across the street?

Aug 18, 2006 08:38 EDT

Today is the big day in Argentina, when women don’t have to walk across busy streets, because men have to drag them, as they’ve been doing every August 18th for 320 years.  Or maybe that isn’t what’s going on here.  Come up with your own captions, and send them our way via Post a Comment.tango300.jpg Meanwhile, here’s some Rough Cut Video: Couples rehearse tango steps prior the first round of Argentina’s fourth edition of the Tango Dance World Championship in Buenos Aires, August 16, 2006.
