Gay men in the Castro stripped down and rolled around in oil Sunday to raise money for wildlife that is suffering in Gulf Coast from the massive BP spill.

Using vegetable oil and a plastic sheet, the matches represented wasted oil that continues to spew on to the Gulf Coast. SF Weekly posted a slideshow of photos.

The wrestling matches were a part of Faetopia, a queer ecology exhibit about crude oil issues. According to SF Weekly, the place got so slippery, half of the men were naked by the end of the round.
