The use of extremely long and thick objects as blunt weaponry carried one-handed over the shoulder but swung two-handed in a devastating arc: think telephone poles, street lamps, trees, cabers... Basically, Big Freaking Stick.
Usually an indicator that the wielder has Super-Strength. Usually an Improvised Weapon, often seen directly plucked and lifted.
A Sub-Trope of Batter Up!. See also Improbable Weapon User, Primitive Clubs, Carry a Big Stick, and Epic Flail.

At one point, The Mighty Thor was being attacked by The Wild Hunt. He led them onto the Brooklyn Bridge, tore a support beam out, and used it as a weapon. Turns out a several-hundred-pound chunk of Cold Iron works rather nicely against The Fair Folk.

In one X-Men comic, X-Men are trapped in another dimension and forced to take part in a large battle. Colossus (for who the whole arc is a serious case of It's Personal) goes to battle swinging a tree. The narration lampshades how horrified he would be at the damage if he wasn't so angry.

In Hyrule Warriors, one of Link's special attacks while using the Gauntlets is to pull a huge pillar note the ones from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time that you need the Golden Gauntlets to lift out of the ground, swing it around, then throw it onto the enemies.
In the 3DS remake, King Daphnes's fighting style of choice is to bludgeon enemies with the mast and sail of his own boat form.

Doable in the first Darksiders, breaking off the non-straight parts of the pole. Though as it turns out mortal steel can't hold up to the strain the protagonist puts on his weapons and his foes are really too tough to make improvised weapons practical, this isn't good for more than a bit of minor Sequence Breaking before you have a ranged weapon.

In The Keys Stand Alone: The Soft World, Paul does this with a convenient log when a bunch of dirt golems attack him. Unlike other examples of this trope, the log doesn't last very long because he's so strong, and so not-good with his strength, that he rapidly squeezes the log into pieces, though it holds out long enough to take care of the golems. (At least until the guy making them starts making more.)

Fallout: New Vegas also has the super mutant favorite Rebar Club, a trio of steel rebar beams, still attached to a large chunk of concrete. The player can also utilize it to full effect, through it takes a nearly maxed out strength score to make the most of it.
The unique version is added in Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC, called Nuka Breaker, which is a Nuka Cola neon sign. This itself is a Shout-Out to Fallout: Nuka Break.

In Fallout 3, the Super Mutant Behemoth enemies carry an improvised club consisting of a fire hydrant at the end of a water pipe. It's also larger than any other in-game fire hydrant by a factor of two, making it about as big as the player without the pipe, because the Behemoth was meant to be rather less big. It got changed late in the game by punching up the stats and increasing the size of the model, resulting in the huge hydrant, not to mention the shopping trolley it uses as a backpack being a lot larger than what you'd expect.

Prometheans in Promethean: The Created can learn a transmutation specializing in making the body stronger, allowing them to pick up objects as though their strength rating was twice what it actually is. A second transmutation lets them use such objects as melee or thrown weapons. (Two further transmutations increase this effect to triple strength — for those times when they really need to hit people with a minivan.)

In one verse during the sixth chapter in Bayonetta, the titular witch has to swing a streetlamp to kill several angels. In addition to Bayonetta herself having Super-Strength, the choice of Improvised Weapon is justified; this particular verse has Bayo in the human world as opposed to in Purgatorio with the angels she's fighting, and so can't attack them directly, but the environment exists in all realms simultaneously.

So has the RuneScape troll Dad, who fights with a tree trunk. A justifiable case, as he's much larger than most other trolls - the average mountain troll is more human-sized and uses weapons like large clubs, hammers, or bones.

Transformers: Prime gives us one Con using a wooden log to knock Optimus Prime off a cliff. Bonus points for being large enough to use it effectively. Sadly, short-lived Con.

Pokémon Black and White introduces Timburr, which fights by using a piece of wood that's enormous when compared to it, and it even juggles it on a regular basis. Its evolutions are also examples, but to a lesser extent, though only because they're bigger in comparison: Gurdurr and Conkeldurr, who swing around girders and concrete support beams, respectively.

Nexus War allows characters with the Cloak of Steel skill (or its upgraded variations) to do this with telephone poles, streetlamps, and uprooted trees. While it's possible to splatter a maximum-level character in three or four hits this way, such weapons are usually much less accurate than normal-size melee weapons.

Archie Comics: Archie found himself using a lamp post in this manner, though he didn't intend to. When he was confronted by a collection of oily thugs who called him and Jughead "fun on the run," Jughead signaled Archie to turn in his direction, which resulted in the whole gang being poleaxed. He finishes off the leader by landing the head of the post into his stomach, also unintentionally.

Fate/Zero: Most Servants summoned for a Holy Grail War have a weapon of choice (or several) called a Noble Phantasm that is part of/inspired by their historic/legendary deeds in their past life and serves as their main means of fighting other Servants. This war's Berserker has the skill Eternal Arms Mastery, which lets him wield any conceivable weapon, however unlikely, as if it were his Noble Phantasm (he does have a 'true' NP, but it's such a colossal resource-hog that he rarely uses it). Among other things, his abilities allow him to use the midsection of a streetlight as a pole-arm to devastating effect against Saber.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure:
During Joseph's chariot race against Wamuu in Battle Tendency, the first weapon is a large hammer hanging from a pillar. Joseph thinks he's got the advantage when he manages to take the lead and snatch the hammer, only to realize that Wamuu is able to use his Super-Strength to take the pillar itself as an even more powerful weapon.
During the Final Battle in Stardust Crusaders, Dio uproots a traffic sign from the ground with ease, intending to use it to decapitate Jotaro, who has already taken numerous daggers to the head and torso and fallen 30 stories onto bare pavement, just to be sure.

You can tell the giant from The Faerie Queene is a real threat to the likes of St. George and King Arthur because his club is really a tree trunk. Spenser probably borrowed this idea from either ‘’The Aeneid’’ or ‘’The Thebaid’’, where a giant and a half-giant respectively fight with tree trunks.
