Repurposing an Old Basketball Goal Post With No Backboard

This is going to sound like an odd question, but hoping some one might have some ideas. We have an old in ground basketball goal. The backboard gave out months ago and now I am stuck with a metal pole sticking out of the ground. Our home owner's association sent me a nasty letter asking me to remove it or put up a new backboard (understandably).

The backboard and arm extension needed is going to run me over $150, and it will never get used. In the interest of saving some cash I'm looking for any ideas on what I could do with the pole? Any ideas on maybe adding something to it to repurpose it making it part of the landscaping? Any good ideas are appreciated.
