Sacco takes his annual dive into the pool
It
would be impossible to put a site up on the internet about
the people of Barga without images of this man. Known right
through the area simply as SACCO he is one of the real characters
of Barga Vecchia. The man has a heart of gold. During the
summer he can be found at the swimming pool. So, what is so
strange about that ? Sacco can't swim! But each year he takes
a dive in to the pool, (carefully watched by the life guards)
and comes up spluttering and splashing to the surface to a
huge round of applause. Previous events are here. |
