Who needs Astroland? The folks in Coney Island can make their own fun with a simple piece of rope. Yesterday current and former Wall Street "Masters of the Universe" faced off against a team of regular Joes (many of whom lost their jobs and life savings in the financial crisis) during The Great Coney Island Tug of War. Before the showdown Wall Streeter Hunter Smith taunted "I'm going to derivatize their asses!" A plumber on the Main Street side countered with "I'm going to lay some pipe on their asses!" Sadly there was no Thor Equities vs. Locals fight, but there were many other pairings; other match-ups included firefighters vs. police officers, boyfriend vs. girlfriend, Brooklyn vs. Scotland, and more.
