Pelham Bay hosted one big, fat, Greek festival last week.

Jeremy Prochilo shows a young lady how to play “crazy ball” at Pelham Bay’s big, fat, Greek festival this week. The parking lot of the Greek American Institute on Bruckner Boulevard was converted into a bash, complete with rides, games and food vendors. The money raised went toward the Bronx’s oldest Greek school, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2012.
